Arguably the best half-day route to the summit, this sensational route leads up an imposing part of the Table Mountain, offering excellent city and sea views. Involves scrambling and exposure to heights (narrow ledges – nothing extreme) about 15% of the way, therefore ideal for, but not restricted to the more adventurous. You also need a decent head for heights. Dramatic topography, exciting hiking, superb views. 15% discount if you book directly through the Hike Table Mountain website.

Amazing trail!!

5.00What an incredible hike with breathtaking views! Our guide, Mike, was outstanding—his knowledge and experience made the entire journey enjoyable and reassuring. Even though we had limited scrambling experience, we felt safe and confident throughout the hike thanks to his guidance. Despite how intimidating some YouTube videos make it seem, the trail itself isn’t scary—just confusing, with many spots where it’s easy to take a wrong turn. If you’re not fully confident navigating the route, going with a local guide like Mike or someone familiar with the trail is highly recommended. We had an amazing experience and would absolutely do it again
Lovely hike, wonderful guides.

5.00Our guide was delightful, learning all about the flora and fauna while hiking and scrambling this moderately challenging route. Highly recommend this hike, above average fitness and no fear of heights is required 😊
GREAT ROUTE! EVEN BETTER WITH A GUIDE!

5.00We did the the India Venster route w/Johan this morning. We were a bit grumpy about the early pick up (5:15am) but Riaan convinced u it was worth it to beat the heat and be out early with no crowds. He also asked us to rate out fitness out of 10 (we said 7-8) and tolerance with height and exposure. He suggested the India Venster route and we ageed w/o much understanding. It was AMAZING. Some relatively challenging scrambling that “got my attention” but made it all the more rewarding. Johan our guide on the day was very helpful and full of useful facts etc. Strongly recommend. You could do the route w/o a guide if you are fit and confident but w/o guide we would in all likelihood have ended up on the much busier, much easier route which would not have been as rewarding or unique.

5.00I hiked up India Venster with my wife and two teenage sons as part of a small group led by the incredibly knowledgeable and friendly Riaan Vorster. The boys had originally wanted to go without a guide but even they agreed that having one made the experience that much better, learning about the nature and history of the mountain. A fantastic hike and very professional guide that I would recommend to anyone interested in a safe and enjoyable hike up a challenging route up one of the world’s iconic mountains.
Riaan is the best guide ever!

5.00Riaan was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, helpful, and was essential in me conquering my fear of heights. I felt comfortable and safe every step of the way. Not a chance I would have done the India trail without his expertise or guidance. Thanks Riaan!

5.00We were three women who set out to hike Table Mountain and had the most marvelous experience! The trail was more challenging than we imagined, but our guide, Mike, made all the difference. He was patient, encouraging, and so attentive to our comfort and safety every step of the way. Mike’s calm guidance and deep knowledge of the mountain gave us the confidence to keep going — and reaching the top felt like such an amazing accomplishment! We can’t say enough wonderful things about him. If you’re considering hiking Table Mountain, ask for Mike — he’s truly the best!

5.00My wife and I climbed Table Mountain with Riaan Tours, taking the India Venster route and being guided by Stephanie. We cannot recommend her highly enough — she was absolutely top-level. It was an excellent, moderately difficult adventure, as described in the programme, and we received great assistance and guidance. As we are both interested in photography, we made some special requests, all of which were accommodated. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in climbing Table Mountain.

5.00Amazing day out! After picking us up, Mike looked after my sister and I extremely well up India Venster while teaching us all about the mountain and Cape Town! I recommend him to anyone thinking of hiking to the top. Thank you Mike!

5.00My daughter and I did a very enjoyable hike up to Table Mountain summit via the India Venster route with Riann. Riann is very knowledgeable and shared lots of tips related to scrambling, route finding, as well as many tidbits on the flora, fauna and history of Table Mountain. He is an expert on the mountains and an author of a book on all the different routes of Table Mountain, and we learnt a lot during our hike. Riann is very friendly and nice to talk to. Definitely recommmend Rian.
