We move people around Cape Town, and a long way past it.

We're a transport and tour company based in Cape Town. We run airport transfers, day tours, staff transport and group trips, in anything from a single car to a full coach.

Who we drive for

One day it's a single traveller from the airport, the next it's a whole wedding party.

There's no minimum booking. One car for an afternoon is planned the same way as nine vehicles for a conference. Pick a line to see how we handle that kind of work.

Late nights, long trips and work for the trade

Whatever the job, the vehicle that arrives is licensed, roadworthy and regularly serviced.

Events and film work often run late at night

Weddings, functions, dinner transfers and film crews. We can collect guests from several places and take everyone home late. If plans change after hours, call the 24 hour line on 060 974 0733.

Longer trips

The Garden Route, and anywhere in South Africa

We plan trips of several days along the Garden Route, and long trips to other parts of the country. For a long run we'll suggest a bus with a toilet on board, and a luggage trailer if the group is carrying a lot.

Tour operators

Subcontract work for tour operators and agents

When an operator or agent has more passengers than vehicles, we can take the job on as a subcontractor, from one van up to a full coach. Ask admin@capricorntours.co.za for trade rates.

Self drive

Vehicles accredited agents and guides drive themselves

If you're an accredited agent or guide, you can take out a Staria, a Quantum or a sedan with your own clients, for half a day, a full day or several days in a row.

How a booking works

You get a quote, then a confirmation, and before the trip your driver's name and number.

  1. You send the details

    Tell us the date, the group and the route.

    Phone, WhatsApp, email or the quote form, whichever is easiest. Mention anything out of the ordinary as well, such as a wheelchair or a lot of luggage.

    • The date
    • How many people are travelling
    • Where you're starting
    • Where you're going
  2. We plan it

    We choose the vehicle and send you a quote.

    We pick the vehicle from your group size, route and luggage, so everyone travels comfortably. If you have a vehicle in mind, say so and we'll book it if it's free.

    • Your group size
    • Your route
    • Your luggage
    • A particular vehicle, if you ask
  3. You confirm

    A deposit holds the date.

    Once you accept the quote, a deposit holds the date and we send you a confirmation. Book as early as you can for big groups and for December to February.

    • Quote accepted
    • Deposit paid
    • Date held for you
    • Confirmation sent
  4. Before the trip

    You get your driver's name and number.

    Before the trip we send your driver's name and phone number. On airport bookings we check the real landing time, so if your flight is late your driver already knows.

    • Flight tracking on airport bookings
    • Meet and greet in arrivals
    • 24 hour line on 060 974 0733
