Getting TO/AROUND: Unless you walk up (it's a long way!), then the Cable Car is your only means of getting to the top of Table Mountain and back down again.
The Cable Cars rotate, so you will get some fab piccies - no need to push your way to position as soon as you get in!
The views up there are spectacular.

'Mode': TO,AROUND
Category: Car/Motor Home
Getting TO/AROUND: We arranged our car hire when we were in Stellenbosch, so on our second day in Cape Town we wandered around to the National car hire building and picked up our brand new fiesta which was to be our means of transport in South Africa for 5 weeks.
Cape Town is a city, so it is fairly busy. This is South Africa remember - so you must use common sense when driving around, we always kept our car doors locked, its a bonus to have air con inside your car. Always park in a prking bay or a car park - many will have attendants who keep an eye on your car - drop them a few rand when you go back to collect.
I seriously heard so many negative comments from people when we said we were hiring a car, but for us it was the only option - to go where we pleased when we pleased.
We did not encounter any problems - just use your head!
