City stories below, mountain views above
Spend a day discovering Cape Town from street level to its famous summit. Heritage landmarks and the gardens of the City Bowl lead into Bo-Kaap’s colourful neighbourhood, a scenic Atlantic Seaboard drive and an afternoon ascent of Table Mountain.
US$230 per person sharing. Cape Town collection, air-conditioned Quantum transport, a registered English-speaking guide and onboard Wi-Fi are included. The standard solo supplement applies.
08:30–09:00: Cape Town pickup and heritage landmarks
Meet your registered English-speaking guide at your local Cape Town accommodation between 08:30 and 09:00. Travel in an air-conditioned Quantum vehicle through the City Bowl, with the Castle of Good Hope, City Hall and Parliament Buildings introducing the city’s historical landscape.
Company’s Gardens, museum and Bo-Kaap
Visit the Iziko South African Museum in the historic Company’s Gardens for an introduction to South Africa’s natural and cultural history. Continue into Bo-Kaap, where colourful houses and the neighbourhood’s Cape Muslim heritage reveal another chapter of the city.
Signal Hill and the Atlantic Seaboard
Travel past Signal Hill and along Kloof Road, taking in views of Table Mountain, Lion’s Head and the Atlantic Ocean. Follow the coast through Clifton and Camps Bay, with time to appreciate the contrast between mountain slopes and seaside neighbourhoods. Lunch and beverages are at your own expense.
Afternoon: Table Mountain ascent and return around 15:00
Take the aerial cableway up Table Mountain for sweeping city and coastal views, subject to weather and cableway operations. Enjoy the summit before descending and returning around 15:00. Confirm your pickup and return address with Knap Tours; V&A Waterfront arrangements can be coordinated when booking. Stop order and timings may vary with traffic and conditions.
Mountain access and optional extras
The scheduled Table Mountain cableway ascent forms part of this day’s programme, rather than an optional add-on. Cableway operations depend on weather and maintenance; contact us to confirm arrangements if the mountain is closed. Lunch, beverages, personal purchases and entrance fees for optional activities are separate. Not every heritage landmark stop includes an interior visit.
