No value for money

We purchased a 3 days pass. Had to find out that a number of attractions where under maintenance or closed at all. Spent a lot of time for nothing. City pass was not very concerned as they are intermediary only. They just brush everything off.

Operator response

Dear Hannes, Thank you for your review. Some attractions do close temporarily for maintenance, weather or operational reasons. These decisions are made by the independent operators, not SA City Pass. As clearly stated in our Terms & Conditions, availability can change without notice and the Pass acts as an intermediary. The Pass is designed with a wide range of attractions to ensure guests still receive value and flexibility. We appreciate your feedback and will continue working with our partners to improve communication. Kind regards, SA City Pass Team

Good

30 refreshing minutes. Nice activity to push time till your next one… not a repeatable activity though. Purchased tickets on their website, however can be bought there. You will stand the same line/queue regardless.

Fun

Fun, no line (as it was a windy night). Price was ok. It's not a must but if we have some time to kill, it's worthy. We had fun!

Maybe item to do in Cape Town

Staffs are very professional in security and operations. Since the wheel is not big, I was on the wheel for 4 times. That is only reason for one less star.

Paid but paperwork not accepted

Dissappointed. I never received a ticket and they didn’t accept this paperwork as a ticket. It seems I’m also too late for a refund.

Operator response

Hello Chania. Thank you for your review. We are not sure why you didn't receive your ticket from Viator. What a pity you were not able to enjoy our experience like so many other happy clients. Please request a full refund from Viator.

Great views

Even if you buy a ticket online you still have to go to the ticket booth to get a printed ticket. The ride is about 10 minutes, or 4 rotations. You get great views of the area.

A lovely Ride

It was worth taking the Cape Wheel - beautiful views (your ride goes around 4 times). Lovely and cosy inside the car - nice tourist attraction.

Thrill-seeking fun on the wheel roller! The twists and turns had me with excitement. Great adrenaline rush and an unforgettable experience.

Worth the small ticket price.

A good way to orientate yourself if it's your first visit to Cape Town. The staff are friendly and helpful. The views as you go around - 4 times - are great, with Table Mountain, Lion's Head and Signal Hill in view and the V&A waterfront right next door. Highly recommended.

INVALID DIGICAL TICKETS

I booked 2 weeks before our trip and we were told everything was set, received our digital tickets. But when we got to the Cape wheel we we disappointed to find that our tickets are invalid, the bar codes are totally different from the ones they work with

Operator response

Hello 589sphesihlem. Thank you for talking the time to reach out and reflect on your experience via your review. We are very sorry that you did not have a seamless check-in and redemption at The Cape Wheel as a result of your Viator generated ticket. This seems like a technical issue which we will take up with Viator as we have not had any issues of this kind prior. We trust that you will get your full refund from the reseller Viator. Best regards.
