The Protea at Kruger Gate advertises an airport shuttle on its website, and SKZ is not only an airport, but the closest one to boot. So . . .
Good luck not paying park fees. If you land at SKZ you are by definition entering the park, and the drive to Paul Kruger Gate will be a a game drive, even if you keep your eyes firmly shut.
It is just possible that the Protea may have cut a deal with SANParks for transfer guests, but I doubt it. The vast majority of pax flying to SKZ will be staying somewhere in Kruger, only a very tiny number will be heading straight out of the park. Those staying at lodges outside the KNP boundaries will, if not arriving by road, most likely fly to MQP, HDS or PHW. The hotel shuttle is no doubt primarily geared to serving those airports.
