Table Mountain Cable Car

Take a cable car ride to the top of Table Mountain (weather-dependent) to enjoy the magnificent view of the Cape. The main feature of Table Mountain is the level plateau from one side to the other, edged by impressive cliffs. Table Mountain is often covered by clouds to form the so-called "tablecloth" of cloud. Table Mountain is a scenic photographic background and a place from where you can take breathtaking photos of Cape Town.
