We did the Cape Town Hop On - Hop Off from the city centre to Table Mountain, stopped off in Camps Bay for a few hours in the afternoon. Absolutely lovely bus tour; my children loved the open top experience (It was their first time on the Red Bus). Very conveniently located stops on the route, clean buses and the guided audio tour was also fun to listen to. This will be a definite must-do in the future as well.
