High StreetSightseeing
One of the few on the globe still operating. Walk the stairs all the way up and enjoy the view to Bristol, Weston Super Mare, Cardiff, Brecon Beacon... On the way back take a look at the engine powering the gondola so you appreciate it when you are taking it back to the shore.
