Here�s an update to my article on �Heres how to get you and 11 friends into Cape Point for R5 each�. Inflation has moved the price of the �My Green Card� up to R80, but it�s still an awesome deal. Read further to see how you can get a family of 4 on to Table Mountain for R308 on your birthday.

Remember to take along: your SA ID book, printed proof of residence, 2 ID photos and R90.
So, if you want to take your family of 4 (2 adults, and 2 kids under 18) up Table Mountain then instead of paying R580, you can buy the �My Green Card� for R80 and it will cost an additional R464.
Note: �My Green Card� reduced tickets can only be bought at the ticket office (not online): So, the ticket office price would have been R580 - that�s a saving of 20% (=R116). If you buy tickets online, then it would have cost you R520.
To save more� go up on your birthday for free: then the family trip for 4 will cost only R388 (incl. the R80 for the Green Card) [R308+R80]. That�s a saving of R192 if you had paid at the ticket office and R132 if you had paid online.
