Is this a first time visit?
I think there are nicer hotels in Sandton rather than staying at the airport.
I would consider hiring a car in Johannesburg and driving to and from the Kruger National Park. It won’t actually be that much longer than flying when you factor in the time needed to check in before the flight and then the journey from Kruger Mpumalanga airport (the closest airport) to the park. Plus you can then drive around the park itself.
Victoria Falls is a good shout. As for Cape Town vs Pirt Elizabeth I’d go for the former, there’s more to see and do.
