Affiliate disclosure

How Cape Tourism makes money, which links earn a commission, and what that does and does not influence.

Cape Tourism carries no affiliate links, no sponsored posts and no advertising. Nothing on this site earns money when you click it, and nobody pays to appear here.

Why this page exists anyway

Because the honest answer to “how does this site make money” is worth stating even when the answer is “it does not”. It also means you can read a recommendation here without wondering which link paid for it.

If that changes

Chiefly hotel and guesthouse bookings, tours and tickets, and flight search. This site carries no eSIM or connectivity links. If commercial links are ever added, this page will say so before they appear, every such link will go through a /go/ redirect tagged as sponsored, and the pages carrying them will show a notice next to the links rather than only in the footer.

How we choose what to recommend

Places to stay are grouped by neighbourhood and by what that neighbourhood is actually good for, because in Cape Town the difference between two suburbs is the difference between walking to dinner and needing a car every evening. Prices are given in rand with the month they were checked, since the exchange rate moves far faster than the prices themselves.
