Private Table Mountain and City Tour
8:30 AM - Depart the quayside towards Table Mountain. Table Mountain
Ascend from the Valley Station 1190 feet (363 meters) to the Mountain Station 3477 feet (1,060m) in a Swiss-engineered Rot air cable car. The journey from the base to the summit takes just under 4 minutes where you will enjoy spectacular views as the floor of the car rotates 360 degrees during the ascent and descent.
Table Mountain gets her name from the flat-topped central massif of the mountain, which viewed from the city, is surrounded by Devil's Peak on the left, Lion's Head on the right and Signal Hill in the foreground.
They form a sort of amphitheater that encloses the city center and some of the older suburbs. Other earlier suburbs are on either side of the chain of mountains, which run like a spine through the Cape Peninsula, from Table Mountain to Cape Point - the cape from which Cape Town gets its name. From the summit, the natural protected area stretching from Signal Hill to Cape Point has been managed under the custodianship of the National Parks Board. This area has one of the highest concentrations of endemic plant and animal species in any area of its size, containing a staggering 2 285 plant species - more than the entire U.K.
