How does Table Mountain Cableway’s ticketing work?

  Return to blog

To assist you this holiday season we have compiled a practical guide to our ticketing:

  • Who is the Cableway’s official ticketing agency?

The Cableway’s official ticketing agency is WEBTICKETS. Cableway tickets can be purchased online via Webtickets (with payment either online or at a Pick ‘n Pay outlet) or onsite at our Ticket Office or our Self-service Ticket Kiosk or through our recognised partner ticket outlet, CITY SIGHTSEEING SOUTH AFRICA. Cableway tickets bought via any other websites are not valid.

  • How long are Cableway tickets valid for?

Cableway tickets, both those bought online and onsite, are valid for 7 days from the selected date of visit (Please note Birthday tickets and Cable Cards have different validity periods). During this 7-day validity period online Cableway tickets can be REFUNDED or RESCHEDULED for another date or UPGRADED to a Fast Track ticket.

  • How can I RESCHEDULE, REFUND or UPGRADE my online ticket?
  1. Log in to your WEBTICKETS profile
  2. Click on MY TICKETS
  3. Next to your transaction, select RESCHEDULE, REFUND or UPGRADE
  • How can I request a refund on unused online tickets?
  1. A refund can be manually processed online via your Webtickets profile
  2. Send an email with a barcode number or transaction reference number to refunds@tablemountain.net
  • What is the difference between ONLINE and ONSITE CABLEWAY TICKETS?
  1. Online Cableway Tickets are purchased via the Webtickets ticketing platform (Tip: You pay less when buying Cableway tickets online!)
  2. Onsite Cableway tickets are purchased via our Ticket Office or our Self-service Ticket Kiosk

Added benefits of online tickets:

  1. You SAVE money as online tickets cost less than onsite tickets.
  2. You already have your ticket in hand, so you join the queue for the cable cars.
  • Is there an option to skip the queue?
  1. Yes, we offer a Fast Track ticket that allows you to skip the queue and gain direct access to the cable cars.
  2. Fast Track tickets can be purchased online or onsite, at a rate of R995 per round trip or R650 per one-way (valid until 30 June 2025).
  3. Standard Cableway tickets, whether purchased online or onsite, can also be upgraded to Fast Track.
  • Can all Cableway Tickets be purchased online?

No, there are 2 ticket types that are NOT available online:

  1. Cableway Birthday Ticket
  2. Student Special Ticket

Please note that even though we prefer card payments, cash is also welcome.
