About the drive to City of Cape Town

The N2 runs straight from the airport into the city, with Table Mountain filling the windscreen for most of the drive. Outside peak hours the trip takes about 20 minutes; in the weekday rush between 7am and 9am, and again from 4pm, allow closer to 40.

Your driver knows which hotel entrances work best for luggage at the Waterfront and in the City Bowl, so you are dropped at the door rather than at the nearest street corner.

We cover City Bowl, V&A Waterfront, Green Point, Sea Point, Bantry Bay and Gardens. If your address is outside these areas, send it to us and we'll confirm the rate.
