Find the Red Bus on Cape Town's Long Street – now in 360 degrees!

15 August 2016

So, you're planning your Cape Town holiday and looking for things to do in the Mother City?

Make sure your first stop is City Sightseeing's Travel Depot, located at 81 Long Street.

Thanks to Google Street View, you can take a "virtual" walk around the ticket office, and even pop downstairs to see all the tour companies who offer excellent Cape Town day tours – in addition to the big red bus!

The Travel Depot on the lower level is a one-stop shop for tourists looking for the best travel experiences Cape Town has to offer

Getting to our Long Street stop is simple. From Cape Town International Airport, hop on a bus or taxi straight to Long Street, or if you're coming from Cape Town Station, the city's main transport hub, it's just a short walk or a quick taxi trip.

Look for the bright red City Sightseeing signage on the corner of Long and Shortmarket Streets, just a few metres away from the ever-popular Greenmarket Square and its range of African curios for sale.

81 Long Street is stop 5 on the City, Peninsula and Downtown tours of Cape Town

Come inside and enjoy a coffee, snacks, ice-creams and cooldrinks while you wait for your bus ride. Our helpful staff will also help you plan your day and recommend the best things to see and do.

Enjoy snacks and quality coffee while you wait

Long Street is the vibrant, eclectic heart and soul of inner city Cape Town, and the City Sightseeing depot is close to hotels, shops and restaurants that are well worth exploring.

Spend some time exploring the City Sightseeing office on Google Street View – you can view both floors in full 360 degrees – and familiarise yourself with everything we have to offer.

We look forward to seeing you here in real life soon
