cape town-kommetjie

Hello!!

we're going to stay in cape town for a couple of days and we'd like to go to kommettjie for horse riding. Do you know if there is any pubblic transport to reach this villagge? We've checked on the interner but didn't find any bus. Do we need to hire a car?

Thank you.

No public transport to Kommetjie.

Coming from Cape Town the only possibility is train to Fish Hoek and then sort out a Taxi from the station. By far the best way to get all around Cape Town and the whole region is to hire a car.

BTW Kommetjie is pronounced Kommikey if you want to ask a taxi driver!

You should rent a car or take return transport from Cape Town.

Agree with VDec and take2tours - hire a car and drive yourself. Fish Hoek is on the other side of the peninsular so to take a train from Cape Town to Fish Hoek and then negotiate from one side of the peninsular to the other with a taxi is simply not worth it.

And also with the rental, if you feel like adding something for the day, then you will have the luxury of doing that on your own and not depend on the expenses for a taxi or extra travel costs.

Thank you very much for your advice.

It seems that hiring a car is definitely the best option.

Getting to Kommetjie by pubblic transport seems a bit too long and difficult since we won't have much time.

Thanks again.
