ACCOMMODATION
To help those traveling in, we've put together a few accommodation options, ranging from wine estates, self-catering homes and boutique hotels all at various price ranges. They are all within 5 - 25 minutes of the event venues. We hope you're able to find something that suits you!
Please clink the link here to access the full list of suggested accommodation.
January is considered peak season so please book sooner rather than later. We would recommend cross-referencing rates and looking at any additional places to stay through: airbnb, booking.com and lekkerslaap.
We have also put together a list of things to do and restaurant recommendations in the Cape Town and Stellenbosch area here.
TRANSPORT
For those of you traveling by air, fly in to Cape Town International Airport and drive 40 minutes to Stellenbosch.
Taxis are a good option for getting over to Stellenbosch and then traveling around the local area. We have provided details of local taxi's firms below and we recommend booking travel to and from the wedding venue and next day event in advance. Uber also operates across Cape Town & Stellenbosch and is reliable during the day however options will be limited late at night. (Uber Black, the premium service, can also be used and will be more comfortable for longer airport transfers.)

We know that many of you are traveling far to be with us and that is truly the most special gift we could receive. We do not expect anything more than your presence, but to those who have asked or feel inclined we’ve set up a home deposit fund for contributions towards our future dream home in the UK, given we are currently nomads in HK.
