Buying Fast Pass tickets was great because we didn't have to wait in any lines. However, if you avoid the morning rush and get there around 12:00 or 1:00 PM, the lines are already gone. Most tourists go early in the morning... at least at this time of year when we visited (early October).

The cable ride was a beautiful experience, the rotating floor, the view from the cabin. And the mountain top setting was simply amazing. The beautiful pathways and of course the breathtaking views. On top of that a great restaurant, so all in all we had a top notch experience.

We used the fast track tickets today and was so pleased as the line was 3 hours! Also the same coming down. Definitely worth doing. There is a free trial that you can download that's worth following. Great service thank you

Very good Fast Tour. We arrived and there was a huge line, but with the fast pass it was very, very quick for us. We got right in, went up, and really enjoyed Table Mountain. Highly recommend!!!!

What a great experience, staff were brilliant and made everything run smoothly. Views from cable car were amazing but from Table Mountain it was simply not to be missed!

We had an amazing time in Table Mountain. The open tickets were great as we stayed all day there. Easy to get through and back. The only problem was when I booked the tickets, tickets didn't arrive until the following morning which made me worry. Tried email but it was rejected until I messaged, ticket s were sent as initially it said 4 hrs. Thought it was scam.

    Was a smooth and enjoyable ride, absolutely amazing views, so many fantastic photo points, and LOTS of adorable Rock Hyrax! Reccomend pre booking tickets at least 2 hours before arrival to allow for processing time, and reccomend arriving 30min-1hr before opening to try and beat all of the tourist buses as the line gets very long very quickly!
