Getting Here

Park and Ride

We encourage visitors to Park and Ride. Park at the free Lower Tafelberg Road parking area and take FREE Cableway shuttle to the Lower Station.

Public Transport - The MyCiTi Bus

Do the right thing for the planet and your pocket. The Cableway can be reached by public transport. The MyCiTi bus route that runs from Camps Bay stops at the top of Kloof Nek Road (route number 106 and 107), (Civic Centre / Camps Bay). The bus departs from the Civic Centre in Hertzog Boulevard. There are a number of MyCiTi bus stops in the city centre.

Every passenger needs their own myconnect card loaded with money/MyCiTi points, except for children under four years old and less than one metre tall, who travel free. Cash is not accepted on the buses.

Head over to the Lower Tafelberg Road bus stop and take the FREE Cableway Shuttle Bus to the Lower Station.

City Sightseeing's Hop-On, Hop-Off Bus

A quick and easy way to reach the Cableway is on the City Sightseeing bus. This "hop-on, hop-off" service runs every 20 minutes and stops at other major tourist attractions in Cape Town.

It’s a 90-minute round trip that starts at the Two Oceans Aquarium, passing the Clock Tower at the V&A Waterfront and the Cape Town International Convention Centre, before heading up Adderley Street, stopping at City Sightseeing’s Long Street tour office. From there the bus continues directly to the Cableway. You can also get your cable car tickets directly from their offices or bus drivers.

Classic One-day ticket Adult: R315

Classic One-day ticket Child: R195

Premium Two-day ticket: R415

E-hailing service

When using e-hailing service, please ask to be dropped off at the Lower Tafelberg Road Bus stop. Then take the FREE Cableway Shuttle Bus to the Lower Station.

Meter Taxi's

Meter taxis are available for hire across the city centre. You can book a taxi in advanced via telephone. They charge per kilometre, and this can vary from R10 to R20 per kilometre depending on the company.

Tip: you can negotiate a price with some drivers, and it is a good idea to ask for an estimate before you get in.

Uber operates in Cape Town, and anyone who has installed on the iOS or Android app can use the private-driver service to get to the Cableway. uberBlack, uberX (slightly cheaper) options are available.

The Cableway is generally quieter in the afternoon, so we encourage you to visit in the afternoon ticket. A late afternoon visit also means that you will most likely catch a glimpse of the sun setting over the Mother City.
