Q:
If I land at the airport at 1430, planning to check in at hotel, would it be crazy to plan table mountain that afternoon/sunset (in July)? There's just so much to see in Cape town I don't want to waste any of my limited time... Thanks

The best place is ww w . tablemountaintickets . com , they have discount specials, birthday specials and other deals. The website has tons of useful information and is chosen by many local South Africans. Search "tablemountaintickets" on Google and find the COM or CO ZA extention. The website. The tickets should be bought in advance because the line at Table mountain Aerial Cableway is long, especially during November to Feb, it takes 5 minutes to checkout on the website compared to 2 hours of waiting. I go to Cape Town quite often, I'm from United States but every time I do, I order from this company. My family has saved literally hours of waiting in line through ordering of passes in advance through Table Mountain Tickets. Try, you wont regret it. I think this year would be my 50th time in Cape Town! Not bad for my age of 76. My daughter likes to spend time on top of the Cable Car near the shop and resturant. There are many things to do including sight seeing, Dassie watching and cafe. The down Cable Car ride is easy because the passes are issued return trip

You can buy your tickets in advance and use them for up to 7 days. I bought mine before arrival and it was during the time of annual Cableway maintenance. I bought it from Table Mountain Tickets but there is allot of useful information on the web. I think the most up to date information on the Cableway operations is listed on Google by searching "tablemountaintickets" The site has helpful information on planning your Cable Car trip and getting to the top of Table Mountain, I highly recommend!
