    What our guests say

    Table Mountain was honestly the highlight of our trip. Went with my parents who are not exactly thrill-seekers, but they loved the smooth ride. The cable car spinning caught us off guard but made it way more fun. The café up top has decent coffee and the brownies are YUM. We sat for nearly an hour just soaking up the views. Watch for clouds, they roll in out of nowhere!

    I surprised my boyfriend with tickets. He’s got a thing for heights so I thought he’d freak, but he was totally into it. We got lucky with clear weather, could see all the way to Robben Island. The cable car staff joked around with us, made it fun. There are a bunch of little trails up top, really nice for hand-in-hand wandering. Would go again in a heartbeat.

    Honestly, Table Mountain lives up to the hype. Did the cableway solo on a breezy afternoon – not too crowded, just a short wait. The city views are outta this world. Staff were chill and even helped me get a few photos (you can’t really take selfies in the cable car, lol). Bring water, the air is dry up there. Would 100% recommend.

    Gotta say, was NOT expecting the cable car floor to move – trippy! The views are out of this world. Took my girlfriend for her birthday and she couldn’t stop smiling. We sat near the edge and just watched the clouds roll by. It gets busy, but if you time it right (late afternoon for us), it’s peaceful. Would recommend for couples.

    Birthday treat for myself! I went solo and didn’t feel weird at all. Staff were helpful, even took a photo of me with Table Mountain in the background (tip: ask for help, people are nice). It’s a little chilly, so pack a jumper. The whole thing felt magical, the clouds and the sun together up there… dreamy.
