Just to put it out there: The view from Table Mountain is one of the best in the world.
Seriously, it’s true. The view from Table Mountain rivals some of the best views you’ve ever seen, guaranteed.
So let’s say it’s a pretty day – and it has to be a pretty day or they close all access – and you step onto a giant, rotating cable car that launches you 3,558ft high in 5 minutes flat. And all through the experience, you’re thinking, this thing could not go any higher. But it does. And when it releases you at the top, you quickly take one of the stone paths to the edge where Cape Town, in all of it’s green and blue and coastal splendour, stretches out beneath you. This is the part where you can safely exclaim: “I’m the King of the World!” and no one would judge you.
