RECOMMENDED AIRPORTS
Cape Town International Airport (CPT)
Most guests will fly into CPT, which is the closest and most convenient airport to the wedding events. This airport is ideal for both arriving and departing flights if you wish to make Cape Town your only destination.
Johannesburg O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB)
For guests planning a safari before or after the wedding, you may prefer to arrive or depart through Johannesburg (JNB). Cape Town is a short domestic flight away from JNB, making it an easy destination to add to the beginning or end of the wedding weekend.

WHEN TO BOOK
The best fares and availability when booking flights is typically 7-9 months before travel, so we would recommend between June through August 2026. Guests interested in a safari extension should confirm safari dates before booking their international flights, as safari itineraries may influence arrival or departure cities and timing.
-
RECOMMENDED ARRIVAL
We recommend guests arrive in Cape Town on or before Sunday, March 14th, 2027, as wedding events will begin in the evening of March 14th.

ACCOMMODATIONS
AIRBNBS
Staying in an Airbnb in Cape Town is a wonderful option for families or groups traveling together. We recommend exploring properties in Camps Bay, which offers excellent proximity to Cape Town’s best experiences. In many cases, an Airbnb can be a more affordable option compared to a hotel.
To make your search easier, we’ve compiled a list of some of our most recommended Airbnb options below.
POD CAMPS BAY
POD Camps Bay is a modern boutique hotel just a short walk from the beach. Known for its thoughtful service and clean, contemporary design, it’s a wonderful choice for guests looking for a stylish and quiet retreat while still being close to the energy of Camps Bay. The central location makes exploring the area simple, with many popular spots nearby.
THE BAY HOTEL
The Bay Hotel is a beautiful beachfront option located directly across from the sand in Camps Bay. With multiple pools, on-site dining, and walkable access to the restaurants and shops along the strip, it’s a convenient and comfortable place to stay. Many rooms offer incredible views of the ocean or the surrounding mountains, making it easy to relax and enjoy everything the area has to offer.
