One of the highlights of any visit to Cape Town in South Africa is a trip to the top of Table Mountain. From its flat summit there are stunning views down over Cape Town to the waterfront, as well as south towards the Cape of Good Hope. The most fun bit however is the Cable Car, or the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway to give it its full title. The ride takes no more than a few minutes, but gives stunning vistas out as you soar into the sky.

The downside used to be the queue for tickets, especially if you arrrived just after a bus or coach had pulled up. Now however things have changes. An online ticketing system has been recently introduced that allows you to buy tickets online and on arrival walk straight to the Cable Car. They are valid for 7 days from the day of purchase. If you  are going to be in Cape Town during the World Caup, save yourself some time and get online.
