Table Mountain is a key stop, subject to the day’s operating order. Table Mountain

A flexible itinerary rather than a fixed sequence

The stop order is indicative and may change. The sources place Cape of Good Hope, Cape Point and Boulders Beach in different sequences.

In December and January, Cape Point may come before Table Mountain when cable-car queues are long. Whale watching appears in the itinerary but is not guaranteed.

What to consider

The breadth of the itinerary is its advantage; the trade-off is an intensive pace and several separate admission fees.

It is a practical way to cover a lot of ground, but it is neither a slow-paced visit nor a package with the main admissions included.
