I highly recommend this place to everyone! ❤️ It has an amazing view, especially in the afternoon. If you’re feeling stressed, just take a walk on top of the mountain, enjoy the fresh sea air, and you’ll come back feeling refreshed and stress-free. 😘 Thank you, Trip Tastic Tour, for taking such good care of us and making our experience so special! 🌹❤️

Table Mountain afternoon trip

We had a fabulous afternoon trip up Table Mountain with our amazing guide Juvens. He collected from our hotel on time and gave us some Cape Town and south Africa facts and figures along the way. Tickets were bought in advance so no need to wait in the sweltering heat. He showed us around the top of table mountain and pointed out places of interest. He took us to Bo Kaap on way back for walk about and some photos. Again, more interesting current and historical facts and places of interest pointed out. Highly recommend this trip and our wonderful guide.

Overall, Table Mountain is a must-visit destination. Whether you’re into hiking, photography, or just soaking up natural

My visit to Table Mountain was truly unforgettable! The moment I arrived, I was struck by the sheer beauty of the mountain’s rocky formations — the massive slabs of sandstone and granite have such unique textures and shapes that they almost look sculpted by hand. It’s incredible to think how nature has created something so striking over millions of years.

Operator response

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re glad your visit to Table Mountain was unforgettable and that you enjoyed its stunning natural beauty. we hope to see you again soon
