CITY, TABLE
MOUNTAIN & ROBBEN ISLAND (Private
Full-Day Tour)
Depart from Cape Town’s Victoria & Alfred Waterfront by ferry for a 25-minute trip across Table Bay to Robben (Seal)
Island.
This World Heritage Site and South Africa’s most revered national
monument, was a prison for some 450 years - for convicts, slaves, exiled Eastern
princes, lepers, the insane and those punished for resisting oppressive rule
- among them, Nelson Mandela.
The tour, led by guides (some of whom were once inmates), includes a visit to
the Prison Block and the infamous Limestone Quarry, where prisoners once toiled,
as well as a drive around the island with it breathtaking views across the bay.
Return to the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront where you are met by our guide
for a trip along the picturesque Atlantic Seaboard, playground of wealthy Capetonians,
and a stop for lunch at a seafood restaurant along the way.
Continue past sunny Camps Bay over Kloof Nek to the Lower Cableway Station
to board the revolving cable car for a 5-minute ride to the top of Table
Mountain.
One thousand thirty six meters above sea level, this sandstone massif offers
staggering bird’s-eye
views of the city, the bay and the Peninsula (as far as Cape Point on a clear
day), as you explore its summit. (This tour may be done in reverse depending
on weather conditions).
NOTE: Robben Island trip is scheduled, transfers, City and Table Mountain are private.
