Cape Town Private Arrival: A Practical Planning Guide
Plan a smoother Cape Town arrival with a transfer brief and timing checklist.
The simplest way to plan a private Cape Town arrival is to confirm your flight timing, passenger and luggage details, pick-up address and first-day plans before requesting an airport transfer.
Arrival checklist
- Flight number, arrival date and local landing time
- Passenger count, luggage and child-seat requirements
- Airport pick-up instructions and accommodation address
- Check-in timing, breakfast, dining or first activity plans
- WhatsApp contact for day-of coordination
What to confirm
- Transfer option and vehicle suitability
- Meeting point and timing
- Any onward chauffeur, restaurant or villa arrangement
- Costs, deposit and cancellation terms for the selected option
If plans change
- Send revised flight or timing information as soon as possible
- Ask for the current operator and booking terms to be rechecked
- Keep airport, accommodation and concierge contact details together
