Useful information about the flight from London to Cape Town

The prefect start to South Africa

With its stunning geography ranging from beaches to mountains, Cape Town's visual beauty will take your breath away. Table Top mountain soars in the background, while the sandy shores of Clifton Beach beckon. 

Beautiful all year round

The temperate climate in Cape Town makes for a great escape any time of year. With its Southern Hemisphere geography, the warmer summer months of December until February are hot and dry. The winter can be wetter and cold at night (June/July/August).

Be prepared: important information before you go

Visas for South Africa are not required for British passport holders. However, passports must be valid for a minimum of 30 days with at least 2 blank pages on entry and exit. While in Cape Town ensure you always carry some form of identification (for example, a photocopy of your passport). South Africa's crime rate is very high - it is extremely important you take care at all times, especially at night. It can be advisable to hire a reliable guide. The currency is the South African Rand (ZAR) and prices are generally much lower than in the UK. South Africa does not observe daylight savings - the time difference to the UK is one hour ahead of UK time (BST) during the summer, 2 hours ahead of the UK in winter.
