FAQs
Does the "Blue Route" pass limit me to only the Blue Bus route?
No. Despite the name, this pass includes a 1-Day Classic Bus Ticket, which gives you unlimited access to all three main routes: the Red City Tour, the Blue Mini Peninsula Tour, and the Purple Constantia Valley Wine Tour. You aren't restricted to one side of the mountain; you can switch between loops all day to maximize your 3 chosen attractions.
Do I have to choose my 3 attractions at the time of purchase?
Not at all. The best part of this pass is its flexibility. You can decide "on the fly" as you see something you like from the bus. Once you arrive at one of the 12 participating attractions (like the Cape Wheel or World of Birds), you simply scan your pass at the entrance. Your pass only expires once you have scanned it at your third chosen attraction.
Can I use this pass for a meal instead of just sightseeing?
Yes! If you’re feeling hungry during your tour, you can use one of your 3 attraction "credits" for a full meal. Options include a free burger and chips at Hard Rock Cafe in Camps Bay (valid between 12:30 & 16:00) or traditional Fish & Chips at Mariner’s Wharf in Hout Bay. This makes the pass an excellent value for those who want to combine dining and touring.
Is the Table Mountain Cableway included in the 12 attraction choices?
No, the Table Mountain Cableway is not one of the 12 specific attractions you can choose from with this particular pass. However, the Red Bus (included in your pass) stops directly at the Cableway station. If Table Mountain is your priority, it is recommended to buy your Cableway ticket separately and use your Discovery Pass credits for other high-value stops like Groot Constantia Wine Estate or the Seal Island Cruise.
How do the "Seal Island Cruises" work—do I need to go to the V&A Waterfront?
You actually have two different options for boat trips. You can use a credit for the Waterfront Harbour Cruise (at Stop 1) to see the city from the docks, OR you can use it for a Seal Island Cruise which departs from Hout Bay Harbour (Stop 24). The Hout Bay option takes you out to see thousands of seals at Duiker Island and is one of the highest-value activities included in the pass.
