Getting to Cape Town

Getting from the airport to the City Bowl
Cape Town International Airport is approximately 20km from Cape Town’s city centre. From the airport, there are a number of ways to get to and from the airport. You can hire a car or shuttle, call an Uber, or take a metered taxi.
Metered taxis are widely available at the airport. Some have flat rates, while others charge by the kilometre, but either way, you should agree up front what the fee might be.
Most big car rental companies are represented and can be found just outside the central terminal.
There are also shuttle services available: https://www.ezshuttle.co.za/
