Good to know
Getting around
Many nearby places — Green Point Park, cafés and restaurants — are an easy walk. For longer trips, Uber and Bolt are the most popular and reliable option. Private shuttles or car rental work well for day trips; ask us for recommendations.
Stadium event days
Both buildings are close to Cape Town Stadium. On match and concert days the roads nearby are busier than usual, so allow extra time when travelling.
Staying safe
We love our city, but it’s important to be vigilant. Avoid walking around at night, stay in a group, and never leave valuables in your car.
