Cape Town International Airport offers an excellent entry point to the Western Cape and South Africa. The airport has recently undergone extensive renovations to bring it into line with international standards, and it has recently won the award for best airport in Africa for a sixth consecutive year.
When in South Africa it is best to hire a car as many destinations are not easily accessible by public transport. Although there are public transport systems in Cape Town, they are not entirely suited to the traveler and are not always reliable after hours. A self-drive tour starting in Cape Town and traveling through South Africa is a popular holiday choice.
Accommodation in Cape Town:
from lavish and luxurious to back-packing on a budget, Cape Town has something for everyone.
