South Africa
Day 3 - Cape Town from above
Ready to discover one of world's natural wonders? Cape Town's famous Table Mountain is a must visit when you're in the city. Let's discover the city from above.
Slow morning with a great breakfast
Bootlegger Coffee Company is a South African chain that you can find at multiple locations in Cape Town and the rest of the country. The Green Omelette is a must try!
Drive your car to the car park of Table Mountain Cableway.
Table Mountain National Park
Next up: Table Mountain! We took the cable car to the top and back. Be aware that there can be a very long queue. A normal return ticket will cost you € 25 but you'll probably need to wait for 1-2h. before you can enter the cable car. We went for a fast lane ticket that literally costs double, but it was worth every penny if you consider skipping the entire line and avoid a 2h. queue uncovered from the sun at almost 40°C. At the top we tight our shoes and went for a long hike on the plateau of Table Mountain all the way to Maclear's Beacon. Along the rim of Table Mountain we enjoyed incredible panoramas over the city, Robben Island, Soccer Stadium and Signal Hill. Make sure to bring plenty of water, the hike is long and it can be very hot at the top.
