    We stop at Table Mountain where we will explore one of the new seven wonders of the Nature. Arriving at the Cable car station we will take the cable car to the top of the mountain. In case of weather adverse, we will skip Table Mountain and leave it for the last stop of the day. Your tour guide driver will escort you to the top of the mountain to give you a guided tour. Please take note that this attraction is weather permitting. Please note that Table Mountain cable car tickets are not included in our tour price. We recommend clients to purchase their own Table Mountain tickets online to prevent delays at the entrance. In this way, you will skip the ticketing queue, but there is still a queue during busy periods to board the cable car to ascend and descend the mountain.

    From Table Mountain we take a drive along the Atlantic seaboard on a coastal drive between mountains and oceans, passing through Bantry Bay, Clifton and Camp's Bay. We will stop at Maiden's Cove for a photo opportunity. This is one of the most scenic photos you will capture on this tour. With views of the Twelve Apostles mountain ranges on one side and the white sand and blue ocean of the pristine Camp's Bay Beach on the other side, this backdrop is certain to make your Instagram caption of the day.
