Although winter is nearing, past iceberg sightings at @CapePointSA have been mostly untrue.The last recorded iceberg sighting was off the coast of Cape Point in the 1800s, just 60 nautical miles away from the peninsula. #CTBig6 #CapePoint
#Didyouknow that a Cape Wheel gondola can hold 600kg’s? #Funfact that’s about as heavy as the heart of a blue whale. #capewheelfacts

#TravelTuesday has been a lot easier since @TableMountainCa's completion. Before that, the only way up Cape Town’s iconic mountain was by foot – a climb undertaken only by adventurous souls, such as the famous Capetonian, Lady Anne Barnard. #CTBig6 #New7Wonder

We’re changing up the Photo of the Month competition for April. Due to lockdown restrictions, the Cape Wheel has been closed, so many of you haven’t been able to visit us.
Nothing quite like seeing us light up the @vandawaterfront - have you caught a snap of us shining bright? 📸 instagram.com/himmelska

#Didyouknow that the Cape Wheel carries 237 people per ride? #Funfact that’s the same as carrying 10,000 people per day! #capewheelfacts
