    Getting TO/AROUND: When you use our public transport system, please try and use it during peak hours when there are lots of other commuters around as we have a lot of muggings happening on the trains. If you cannot then please look for the compartments where the security personell is located and travel in that wagon

    Getting TO/AROUND: Something I was not aware of untill recently - if you are a Dinerscard holder, you can use the airport lounge whilst waiting for your flight to depart at no cost to yourself. Make use of it, it is absolutely worth it if you have quite some time to spend at the airport.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Finally I did the hop on/hop off bus in Cape Town. The cost is R120 for one day or R200 for two days. We did the red route which was the CBD, Cable Car over to Campsbay. Very nice and most informative.
