Cape Town

The journey begins

Private jet to Cape Town

Cape Town combines a dramatic coastal setting with dining, art and outdoor excursions. Mountain access and sea outings depend on weather, so keep the order of activities flexible.

Where to land for Cape Town

Cape Town International is the main air gateway. A city-centre hotel, a Peninsula property and a Winelands stay involve different road journeys, so use the final destination when arranging the private-flight arrival and transfer.

The operating carrier should confirm aircraft suitability, handling, permissions and the onward transfer for your itinerary.

What to do in Cape Town

Table Mountain and the Cape Peninsula offer outdoor highlights, with the waterfront and the city's art and dining scene providing alternatives when weather changes. Leave spare time rather than fixing every mountain or boat outing to one day. The Winelands can be added as a separate excursion.
