Encompassing 7 750 hectares of rich and varied flora and fauna; abounding with buck, baboons and Cape mountain zebra as well as over 250 species of birds, Cape Point is a nature enthusiast’s paradise.
Named the ‘Cape of Storms’ by Bartolomeu Dias in 1488; the ‘Point’ was treated with respect by sailors for centuries. By day, it was a navigational landmark and by night, and in fog, it was a menace beset by violent storms and dangerous rocks that over the centuries littered shipwrecks around the coastline.
Cape Point is in the Cape of Good Hope nature reserve within Table Mountain National Park, which forms part of the Cape Floral Region, a World Heritage Site. It includes the majestic Table Mountain chain, which stretches from Signal Hill to Cape Point, and the coastlines of the Cape Peninsula. This narrow stretch of land, dotted with beautiful valleys, bays and beaches, contains a mix of extraordinarily diverse and unique fauna and flora.

I'm always met with professional and friendly service. Samantha always willing to print my pre-booked tickets and the friendliness of the operators and gate staff. Thank you for always making the trip special.

Being able to buy the tickets ket in advance was fantastic as there was a very long line of people waiting to buy tickets at the station. Boarding process of the vehicle was very organised and loading was quick. The ride was very smooth and comfortable. Some of the windows could maybe have been cleaner to give a better view and maybe increased ventilation in the carriage as it misted/steamed up quickly. We really enjoyed our trip/ride and would recommend it to friends and family. I really enjoyed the museum and information in the building at the top level with history and explaining of the lighthouse and surrounding area.

A frustrating and unacceptable experience. The staff were arrogant and unhelpful, showing zero customer care or empathy. The infrastructure was equally poor---after transporting visitors to the top, the funicular broke down, leaving guests stranded with no ETA or alternative transport. Shockingly, an epileptic and hypertensive patient was forced to walk down the mountain due to this failure. A complete disregard for service and accessibility. Avoid.
