A trip up Table Mountain is quite rightly one of the first things a tourist wants to do when arriving in Cape Town, its a 10 minute taxi ride from the city/waterfront or Camps Bay and you can buy tickets at the ticket station, mornings may have queues! The Cableway has something for everyone, which is why it has attracted more than 24-million visitors since its opening in 1929. Make the most of your visit with our list of things to do below;

CATCH A CABLE CAR

Take the five-minute cable car trip to the top of Table Mountain, 1 089 metres above Cape Town, and explore the summit (The Cableway is wheelchair accessible, and yes, some parts at the top are too).

GRAB A BITE

You’ll find the self-service restaurant, Table Mountain Café, offering a range of food and drinks, snacks, desserts and wines.

ENJOY THE VIEW

This is a great spot to sit and soak up the commanding 360-degree views of Cape Town, Table Bay, the nearby peaks of the surrounding mountains and the rest of the Table Mountain National Park, in which the Cableway is situated.

RETAIL THERAPY
