    Amazing views. Cable car totally safe to use. Eventhough the floor of the cable car turns so that you can see a 360 degree view while going up and down, you never feel unsafe. Great food at the top...  more »

    Breathtaking views whether you’re on top of it or taking it all in from the beach or Cape Town itself. Having toured around the Western Cape and the Garden Route I found myself missing it!  more »

    I am incredibly afraid of heights so the cable car up to the mountain was quite terrifying for me but the view once at the top is absolutely magnificent.  more »
