Cape Town: frequently asked questions

How many days do you need in Cape Town?

Our Cape Town route is built for 3 days and covers 9 stops, from arrival to the last drink of the last evening. It is a starting point rather than a rule — the app tightens it if you have fewer days and stretches it if you have more.

Is there a ready-made Cape Town itinerary?

Yes — “Three Days in Cape Town” is a day-by-day Cape Town route from the SMOVECITY editors. You can read every stop on the web, then open it in the app and change anything you like.

Where should I eat in Cape Town?

Our Cape Town guide lists 4 restaurants and bars, each with its own page. SMOVECITY does not rank or review them — the listings are there so you can find the place, and its own site.

How do I get around Cape Town?

Cape Town has ride-hail. SMOVECITY shows it on a live map alongside walking and driving, so you can compare each leg without switching between apps.

What are the closest cities SMOVECITY covers to Cape Town?

Johannesburg, Rio de Janeiro, Recife and Salvador — from 1,262 km out. Nothing we cover is closer: Cape Town is a long way from the rest of the network. Each of those has its own guide and operator list.

Is SMOVECITY free to use?

Yes — the app is free to download and free for planning and routing. SMOVECITY earns a commission only when you book through its partners, at the same price as booking direct.
