Cape Town questions
Is 5 days enough for Cape Town?
Five days covers Table Mountain, Robben Island, the peninsula and Winelands if you plan daily transport in advance. Book the cableway and Robben Island ferry online before arrival to lock in morning slots.
Do I need to book Table Mountain cableway tickets ahead?
Yes, reserve timed tickets on the official site at least 24 hours ahead. Without a booking, waits at the base station often exceed 90 minutes during peak hours.
How do I get from Cape Town to Cape Point and Boulders Beach?
Join a peninsula tour bus or hire a driver for the full loop, as public transport does not reach the reserve entrance. Allow eight hours total including stops at Chapman's Peak and Kalk Bay.
Do I need a car for Stellenbosch and Franschhoek?
Rent a car or book a wine tour from Cape Town, since estates lie 10 to 20 kilometres apart. Trains reach Stellenbosch station but leave Franschhoek without direct connections.
