★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,179 reviews · from $49Our pick

Ride seven zip lines covering about 2.3 kilometres beneath Table Mountain, with short walks through fynbos and sweeping views over Cape Town. Guides such as Vumi, Sakhile, Mesuli, and Nkosi are praised for calm safety briefings and good humour. Allow two hours, plus 20 minutes to check in.

“We call to ask if it was windy as we saw on weather website. They informed it was not windy so we booked for it today. It was windy, we ask for refund, they decline for refund. This is very bad customer service. If weather is not good they should refund money, and not ask customer to take chances in windy weather so they can make some more money”
