Wonderful view of the V&A waterfront and Table Mountain. If you're a foreigner this is going to cost 250 ZAR but it's worth it. You get about 4-5 spins which last 10 minutes and on a sunny day you can take loads of cool shots.

You get to see the nice view of Cape Town. I was very scared, but when you're inside, it's really not that bad, and it moves in a way that is not scary. After going 2 rounds, you'll feel comfortable. I don't understand why you have to pay for the whole album to get your photo when you can get 2 or 1 picture and why they don't tell you before you take pictures that you must pay for them.

In my opinion, the pricing structure appears to be somewhat elevated. Foreign adults are charged 250 rand, while local adults are charged 190 rand. The duration of the experience is not explicitly stated, but I took a chance and participated. Unfortunately, the information provided does not specify the duration in minutes, as the ride intermittently pauses when individuals board the wheel. It is important to note that the ride does not operate continuously. I counted 5 rounds for my ride. On a clear day, the views are satisfactory and encompass prominent landmarks such as Table Mountain, Robben Island, the Harbour, V&A Waterfront, and Lions Head Hill.

My friend Jenny from Durban was visiting Cape Town and wanted to go on the cape wheel. It was her first time and she thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a second time for me but in a different location of the waterfront. We got pensioner rates which was fantastic. The views were spectacular. We have a beautiful country. Cape Town is awesome. The cape wheel is a must see for anyone visiting the waterfront.
