It was absoutely fantastic standing on the top of table mountain the view was fantastic (although it was very cold up at the top - so even if it is a sunny day when you set off pack a jumper just in case.) I am incredibly scared of heights and really wanted to do it but dreaded it at the... more

me and my family climbed to the top of the mountain and were auxuoisted, but it was worth it and you could see everything and it was breathe taking and it was a chance in a life time to see it omg. when we went down the mountain cause it was a little harder because your being pulled down but... more

You cannot visit Cape Town and not go to the top of Table Mountain. After all, the city wraps around Table Mountain, and the flat topped mountain gives the city it's distinctive skyline. There are two options to get to the top of Table Mountain: 1) climb 2) take the aerial cableway. A group of friends and I were going... more

I'm scared of heights so the thoughts of going up and down the mountain in a cable car was quite daunting, but I made it and I'm still here to tell the story! Everyone warns you that timing is all on a visit to Table Mountain - be aware that it took us three visits to arrive and find ideal... more

I went there in February. The hotel I stayed in had views of the mountain from the swimming pool floor. It was not unusual for people to come up to see if the cable cars were operating and then deciding to go. We visited around midday, when the weather was sunny and the sky clear.

It's an awesome Mountain, and i'd rate my experience Excellent otherwise, but unforunately While we were in Cape Town in August the cable car was closed for the entire duration of our stay. They always close it in the winter for maintenence, and we were unaware of this and it was very unfortunate. So make sure if you are keen... more

If you think the views from the cable car are awesome try abseiling off the top of Table Mountain and turn yourself around halfway down to take in the view of Camps Bay and beyond. Not for the faint-hearted but if you're up for it you'll love every minute. In fact the worst bit is the walk back up to... more

THis is really a fabulous thing to do. The cable car closes often enough for poor weather, so if you're in Cape Town for a few days, and it's clear, go for it. The only other big attraction that's also weather-dependant is Robben Island, so if you hav ea decent patch of weather, get one of these in. You can... more

We went up to Table Mountain at about 8am, it was fairly quiet, a very clear day day and the views were beautiful. We sat outside and had bacon and eggs for breakfast! It does get quite busy so the earlier you go the better. more
