Mumbai to Cape Town Route

Here is how to reach Cape Town from Mumbai via air, road and rail.

 

Mumbai to Cape Town By Flight: Mumbai has the fastest flight to Cape Town from India. The best Mumbai to Cape Town flight is operated by Ethiopian Airlines via Addis Ababa in 13 hours 10 minutes. The second best option is the connecting flight by Air Seychelles with British Airways or South African Airways together, both with two stops at Mahe and Johannesburg. If none of these flights are available for you, you can always trust Emirates to fly you via Dubai. Mumbai to Cape Town flight duration by Emirates is longer than the previously mentioned ones, but 15 hours 45 minutes is reasonable enough. The total distance by flight between Mumbai and Cape Town is approx. 8238 kms. 

Cape Town International Airport receives regular flights from Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport via some other airport of the Middle East or Africa. From the airport, there are shuttles and taxis, and the Rapid Bus Transit operated by the airport itself is also there to take you to the city centre. The total distance between Cape Town International airport and city centre is around 20 kms and it takes almost 50 to 60 minutes to cover this distance. 

 

Mumbai to Cape Town By Road: There is no road connectivity between Mumbai and Cape Town. You can avail buses by Greyhound or Translux from other cities and from Windhoek in Namibia.

 

 

Mumbai to Cape Town By Train: Shosholoza Meyl is the common passenger train connecting Cape Town with Johannesburg daily and some other cities with weekly trains. Inside the country, rail connectivity is very good, but obviously there is none from Mumbai.

S's 5 days trip to Cape Town

The team at TravelLykke have been very professional in their approach right through. They have been very patient and understanding of the requirements and accommodative to all kinds of doubts and queries and options too. Fairly transparent in the dealings and have a good set of on-ground contacts in S Africa who too have been professional and on time without delays and exceptions. A suggestion: there were some legs where we were informed we need to take Uber (to & fro Robben Island & Table Top Mountain). For the kind of spends done by us (Rs 3 Lakhs +) overall, it would have been helpful if these too could have been accommodated in the package. It is the nuisance value of having to book, wait etc. Also more minute detailing of the Full day Cape Peninsula tour could have been share earlier - we got it on landing from the local guide and it was very educative. Why not share this ahead of time? Some travel agencies give a backpack or travel kit (the amount of Rs 3 Lakhs is HUGE) with your branding. In this case it is singularly absent. Wonder why? We stayed in 3 hotels - Emerald Guest house in Johannesburg (Rating Poor to Good only); Kruger Park Adventure Lodge ( Excellent); Holiday Inn Express at Cape Town (Excellent).

Mayankmaki's 9 days trip to Cape Town

The trip was very well organised and all our requirements were met. We had issues due to flight delays and we were late for one tour, our travel planner Mrs Prerna was very helpful and proactive to adjust the tours to accommodate everything. From last minute hotel booking to providing rental car , she was quick to respond and also regular reminders before trips to ensure smooth communication between us and South African operators. Would surely recommend their services The views with clouds sliding in all around the mountains and ocean at the cape point during the cape peninsula tour.

Aniruddha's 9 days trip to Cape Town

We had an amazing trip to South Africa. It is a beautiful country to visit with very hospitable people around. Everything went well without any hiccups. The hotels, cab drivers and other details were well planned by Nikhil from Besten/MK Holidays, special thanks to him. Some elements which can be improved were the visits planned during our stay at Knysna as they were quite some distance away from our hotel. Will definitely recommend Travel Triangle to others for planning their trips.
