Our experience using the Table Mountain Cable Car was exceptional! We booked our tickets online with ease, and the fact that the tickets are valid for a week is fantastic, especially when weather conditions can affect your plans. On Tuesday, 1 September 2026, we arrived at the cable car station and found parking easily. The walk to the cable car was pleasant, and we were greeted by friendly, welcoming staff. There was no queue, which made the experience even better. The cable car ride up was amazing, with magnificent views. At the top, we enjoyed walking around the mountain and taking in the spectacular scenery. The bathrooms were very clean, and we also bought some items at the shop and enjoyed them at the tables while taking in the views. After about two hours, we headed down again. We always felt safe and well looked after throughout the experience. A truly wonderful experience that we highly recommend! 🌄🚠 I can also make it �⁠shorter and more natural-sounding for a Google Maps review if you prefer.

Going to Cape Town and not climbing Table Mountain is like going to Rome without seeing the Pope, as the saying goes. The mountain from below is a spectacle, but going up is breathtaking. Buying tickets through HeadOut was quick and secure, and the ride up and down on the cable car was also an unforgettable experience. The cable car has a rotating platform, giving you a 360-degree view during the journey. Unmissable!

Cover Cape Town’s top viewpoint and its flagship botanical garden in one booking, with flexible access at both.

Table Mountain Cable Car: Round-trip ride (one ascent, one descent) with all-day flexibility, plus rotating cabins on the way up.

Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden: Skip the ticket queue, then explore all garden areas for a full day, including the Boomslang canopy walkway.

Both tickets are self-guided and flexible, so you can choose your pace and split the day however it suits you.

The lines are well-organized, the observation wheel turns, and you can enjoy a 360° view, but the best part is the view from the top of Table Mountain.
