Silversea Expedition Cruises To CAPE TOWN

No visit to Cape Town is complete without a trip up Table Mountain, the city's most celebrated landmark.

Depart from the pier and travel up Kloof Nek, the saddle between Table Mountain and Lions Head, to the Lower Cableway Station. Here, board the Swiss-engineered Rotair cable car and ascend from the Valley Station 1,190 feet (363 metres) to the Mountain Station. The journey from the base to the summit takes just under 4 minutes and there are spectacular views as the floor of the car rotates 360 degrees during the ascent and descent.

Table Mountain gets its name from the flat topped central massif of the mountain, which viewed from the city, is surrounded by Devil's Peak on the left, Lion's Head on the right, and Signal Hill in the foreground. They form a sort of amphitheatre that encloses the city centre and some of the older suburbs. Other earlier suburbs are on either side of the chain of mountains, which run like a spine through the Cape Peninsula, from Table Mountain to Cape Point - the cape from which Cape Town derives its moniker.

From the summit, the natural protected area stretching from Signal Hill to Cape Point has been managed under the custodianship of the National Parks Board. This area has one of the highest concentrations of endemic plant and animal species in any area of its size, containing a staggering 2,285 plant species, more than that of the entire United Kingdom.

Re-board the cable car for the descent, and begin the return to the ship via a short orientation tour of the city of Cape Town.

Please note: This tour requires a minimal amount of walking and it is suitable for guests with limited mobility and those who utilise a wheelchair, able to embark/disembark the coach via steps and accompanied by someone to offer assistance. Pathways may not be smooth. Wear flat, comfortable shoes and bring a sweater or light jacket if cool, as temperatures atop Table Mountain are less warm. The cable car visit at Table Mountain is strictly weather-permitting. If the cableway is closed, a visit to the South African Natural History Museum is substituted. This tour is not suitable for guests who suffer from fear of heights.

This tour and airport transfer is offered to guests with flights that depart Cape Town International Airport after 06:00pm and to our guests with hotel reservations at the Victoria & Alfred Hotel.

Stellenbosch is the capital of the Cape Winelands and was named after its founder, Governor Simon van der Stel who discovered the broad fertile valley of the Eerste River in 1680. In 1685, it was just the second town to be founded in South Africa. Today Stellenbosch is a major university town, characterized by Cape Dutch-style architecture and streets lined with oak trees, some of which have been declared national monuments. The reason most visitors come to Stellenbosch is to sample the wonderful wines of the area. There are over 200 estates that offer wine tasting in Stellenbosch.
