This is an awesome hike. It takes up to 2 hours although a friend and I once ran it in 45 minutes. It take about 10 minutes to the starting point from Cape Town center, but once you're hiking it feels like you're away from it all. Awesome views once you're at the top.
People visiting Cape Town often neglect this because Table Mountain gets all the focus.

There is an alternative route to the chains, that does take you to the top. Just carry on walking straight past the start of the chains route and you will eventually join back up with the path above the chains.
You should probably add about 20 minutes to the total hike time.
