Are the "Wow Capetown Travel and Tours” prices correct? They seem really expensive (e.g., US$45 is around 600ZAR, compared to 400ZAR for an Uber in both directions without sharing

- the US$80/day tours seem extremely expensive!).

BTW, I’ve put some currency conversion estimates at:

and have created the template at:

that might be useful to add to the info pages.

Thanks,

Mike

There are several options, and yes that is a bus shuttle and the costs are listed.

Thank you.

As I have just posted on the page's talk-page:

"How do we get to the city centre/ event venue from the airport? The
Cape Town page says to use MyCiTi - that's a bus, I think, but it's
not clear. What does it cost? Is exact change needed? Do we pay on the
bus, or at the airport?"
