After lunch (own account) we visit the famous Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens for a guided stroll through the magnificent Cape Floral Kingdom nestled at the foot of the mountain.

(Please note: the Table Mountain Cable Car operates only in fair weather. We therefore buy tickets on the day, and our quotation will not include this).
