This mountain/hike is no joke! It's quite a challenge from the start and doesn't really let up much on the way; however, it is very doable if you take your time and keep at it. I thought I was doing a terrible job and made it up just at the average time and I'm pretty sure my husband could have done it 30-45 mins quicker had I not been holding him back haha! Regardless, Lynette makes the hike very enjoyable and had it not been for the amount I was chatting, I may not have been huffing and puffing quite so much and could have gone faster lol. Lynette is very knowledgeable and shares all kinds of information about Table Mountain and Cape Town with you while on the hike and is lovely to converse with as we hiked. It was a very worthwhile morning and especially fulfilling once you finish on the plateau!!

Worthwhile hike with a great guide

We were picked up on time in the morning and received in a super friendly way. On the way there were a lot of tips about Cape Town and then the hike started. Paula is a great guide, very competent! was able to assess and keep the group's pace well, explained a lot with her super nice nature. It was really great fun. In our opinion, the route is easy to master and worth 1000 times more than 2 hours in line. We did not need perfect but halfway sporty hikers with the group 2h 25 and the route is worth every step!

Thanx Nick for a wonderful early morning hike to start our holiday

We were a family group of 4 with twen kids running fast and mommy going slow. Nick was a great guide entertaining the twens while giving mom the time to go as slow as she needed to be: 600m height on 3 km distance. Up on the hill, Nick showed the freshly opened protea flower to us and explained quite sth about everything we could see. Thanx for a lovely morning
