The MyCiTi bus is Cape Town’s official Integrated Rapid Transit (IRT) system, offering safe, reliable, and affordable transport. While Tamboerskloof is not directly on a MyCiTi route, nearby stops on Kloof Nek Road provide access. To use MyCiTi, you'll need a MyConnect card, available at stations and select retailers. Remember to tap in and out to ensure correct fare calculation.

Services like Uber and Bolt are widely available and offer a convenient and safe mode of transport, especially during evenings or in areas less served by public transport.

The Golden Arrow bus service covers extensive routes across Cape Town, including areas not served by MyCiTi. While more affordable, they may not offer the same level of comfort and reliability.
