Getting to Stellenbosch

The closest airport to Stellenbosch is Cape Town International (CPT). Most international flights connect in Johannesburg, but there are direct flghts from London (Virgin, BA), Amsterdam (KLM), Paris (Air France), Munich (Lufthansa), Zuerich (Edelweiss), Istanbul (Turkish Airlines), Doha (Qatar Airways), Dubai (Emirates), and Singapore (Singapore Airlines). Note that some of these flights are seasonal and operate only during the Summer, so they might not show up yet.

CPT is about 35km from Stellenbosch; the best transfer option is to book an airport shuttles:

  • Bettina's
  • Travel with Andre
  • Shuttle Up
  • Cape Town Airport Shuttles

Note that some companies provide a direct taxi service which is more convenient but more expensive. Please contact the companies directly.

You won't need a rental car unless you are planning to go on a road-trip before or after the conference, or want
