Getting around

There is a bus stop 400 meters from the cottage by the harbour, which is the 'hop on and off' red bus with open roof. This citysightseeing bus is a very convenient way to discover Cape Town and stops at all major tourist attractions. You can walk to shops and restaurants from the cottage and in theory it is not necessary to have a car, however, we still do recommend a car simply because it gives you more freedom to discover and explore all the beauty directly on our doorstop. There are also Uber taxi's and other private taxi companies easily available.
