Cape Town Travel

Many tourists ask us about public transport in Cape Town and what options there are. Well, first of all, our tourist attractions are located all over our beautiful province, so we usually recommend that travellers rent a car for the duration of their stay. Rates are usually cheap and ranges from around R150 per day for your entry level car and up. We recommend getting a car with air conditioning during the summer months (October - April).

Cape Town travel is quite easy and a good map book of Cape Town is essential. Travel guides are readily available at most hotels and guest houses in Cape Town.

Taxis are available throughout Cape Town. We recommend using city bound taxis (usually cars) and not using minibus taxis as their driving ability (or should we sometimes say disability) leaves room for improvement. We will find out some telephone numbers for taxi companies in Cape Town and post them here soon. Rates start from around R7-8 per kilometer and is on par if not cheaper than international rates.

There are also shuttle services from Cape Town International Airport if you choose to use them. Check our site regularly for updates on these.

All in all your travel experience in Cape Town should go without a hitch. Remember to drive on the left side of the road!
