MyCiTi Fares 2021/22

Fares are changing on 1 July 2021 but we're keeping them as low as we possibly can

Our fares are reviewed annually as part of the City of Cape Town's annual budget process. We know times are tough, so we are keeping costs as low as we can. Our distance-based fares will increase but most costs remain unchanged so you can still enjoy great value for money with safe, convenient, quality public transport.
