Great views and a great was to get up but way over priced. Went up higher in whistler for a cheaper price. This place is not worth the money spent.

The cable car holds a huge amount of people !! The ride up is steady and if you are lucky enough to get a place near the window the views are awesome. It was great to see so much snow and we were told to take a short walk to see two brown bears who had just come out of... More

We caught the Seabus fromVancouver CBD, then caught the No.8 bus at the transfer station on North Vancouver. Cost was $4.00 for 2 zones for the Seabus and bus ride up,the mountain. The grizzly bears are amazing and so much fun to watch. Their names are Coola and Grinder. so,worthwhile going up the mountain. The fare on the gondola was... More

This is a great place to take pictures of Vancouver. On a clear day the view is spectacular. Great place for a walk or a hike with snowshoes.

If you are new to Vancouver or just visiting then it is definitely worth taking the skyride. Once you are up there you will know what I mean. Go in the summer when the weather is nice, Lot's to do up there, great hiking, logging show, birds of prey show, etc. Great patio to sit out on and gawk at... More

Although I haven't taken the skyride in a while, it hasn't changed. The views of Vancouver and the Gulf Islands are stunning. If you're afraid of heights, no fear, you are completely enclosed in glass. At the top you can hike, have a bite to eat at the restaurant, ski or snowshoe. Also, at various times of the year there...

If you are lean on time spent in Vancouver make sure to add this to your must do list. The drive across the Lions Gate Bridge will give you perspective of the Northshore to the mainland. The cool fragrant forest sets the stage for the exciting ride up Grouse Mountain by gondola. The views are to die for, amenities at... More

I live a the foot of Grouse Mountain so its a local attraction for us. Nice view and it's pretty up top. Be careful locking your car and not leaving valuables in view, the parking lot is a common place for breaking. Sometimes in the summer high season the lineups can be a bit too long. You can get a...

let others sweat and strain up the mountain, the skyride takes you up and brings you back down without any effort on your part and the view is so worth it. lots to see at the top too
