Cape Town International Airport is South Africa’s key air transport hub, offering direct connections across the African continent and beyond. To ensure a smooth start to your journey, plan to arrive at least two hours before departure. This way, you can take your time checking in and passing through security within the International Departures area.

Getting to the airport is straightforward. Hop onto a My Citi Bus, operating directly from the Civic Centre, or opt for the authorised taxi service, Touch-Down Taxis. If you are driving, the two Parkade areas consist of nearly 5,800 short and long-term parking spaces, including covered ones. Lock-up garages can also be pre-booked for added security, giving you peace of mind before you take off.

Plus, enjoy browsing various retail outlets selling locally-made goods and chic accessories, or savour everything from light refreshments to hearty meals at one of the restaurants.

Begin your Korean exploration in Incheon, a historically significant and economically vital powerhouse of South Korea. You will immediately sense the city's seamless blend of modern progress and deep cultural identity, beautifully preserved in its traditional architecture and stunning parks. This welcoming location is one of South Korea’s best-kept secrets, offering a wealth of attractions and excellent facilities for your visit. You can explore Incheon's Chinatown, the only official one in South Korea, which sits right next to the tranquil Liberty Park. This expansive green space is a stunning open area that offers a welcome escape from the city’s vibrant energy. For a fantastic panoramic spectacle of ultra-modern architecture, you should make your way to the North Asia Trade Tower, a prominent landmark in the rapidly expanding Songdo International City.

If you desire a more traditional flavour, you can take a local ferry to the beautiful Incheon Islands. Here, life moves at a far more sedate pace, and you will discover relatively quiet beaches and peaceful hiking trails, which are perfect for a refreshing outdoor leisure experience. Amongst the best islands to visit are Daecheongdo, Ganghwado, and Muuido. Back in the city, the Arts Centre in Guwol-dong is a must-see, offering frequent performances of traditional Korean plays, dancing and theatre. This cultural venue is also conveniently located within a thriving retail district, allowing you to combine cultural browsing with shopping for unique souvenirs.
