Arriving

After you arrive at the airport in Cape Town, there are various ways of getting to your accommodation:

• During the day, Uber is generally available. Please follow the signs for e-hailing. If you arrive early in the morning or late in the evening, this might not be an option, though.

• If your accommodation is at the Waterfront or in the city centre, you might be able to use the MyCiti bus. You need to purchase a myconnect card, which is available from the MyCiti kiosk just outside the terminal building.

• There are official airport taxis, which you can book from a desk in the terminal building.

You will likely be approached by people offering you a taxi service. It is advisable not to take up such offers.

Accomodation

The meeting venue is the Breakwater Lodge conference centre of the University of Cape Town’s Graduate School of Business, located in the historic and popular tourist area of the Cape Town Waterfront. Many nearby (walking distance) accommodation options are offered.You can find plenty of accommodation options for all kinds of budget on sites like Booking.com or AirBnB.

Please use the parking marked as “GSB Conference Basement Parking” on the map. Do not use the Academic Conference Centre Parking. In order to reach the parking, turn from Portswood Road into the hotel parking: Approaching from Helen Suzeman it will be the first right. From the Waterfront it will be the last left, just beyond the hotel pedestrian crossing. The hotel pedestrian crossing is a good landmark to look out for.

Take the first left turn and follow the road down the hill. At the bottom there is a UCT security guard who will open the boom for you and tell you where to park.
