Well worth the money. What an amazing view, I would do it again in a heart beat. Also, great tour guide. My wife and I had a great time.

Guide was excellent! Little issue where pickup location was wrong but resolved quickly when I called office. Tour is a good value. Weather can easily be an issue so hard to book far ahead.

Unfortunately, we didn't get a sunset because of the weather but we got to see the 2 orphaned grizzly bears playing in the snow and we talked to the people at the shops and theatre which was really interesting and good entertainment.

We enjoyed the view of Vancouver from top of Grouse Mtn. The sunset was very pretty; wish we could had stayed a bit longer to see it finish, as it was still setting when we had to leave to catch our bus back. We seen the 2 orphaned grizzly bears that live on the lodge grounds... they almost seemed to like their picture taken. There were lots of tree wood carvings to look at that were nice. But, sadly the black flies were terrible... but that's nature for you, so bring some bug spray in the summer months. There is an area to eat at, plus a gift shop, and viewing deck. We were glad we did the tour but would not do it again due to there not being a whole lot else to do up there, other than a couple of films to watch that we did not partake in. We were at the mountain for about 2 hours total for this tour.

I did't pick a good day, cloudy. Didn't see the sunset. I should have picked an early time to go up there.

We booked this tour was because we wanted to watch the "sunset", but by the time driver took us there, the sun had already set down, so we ended up with seeing nothing but the darkness of the mountain. Some passengers told us that driver was busy doing something, or she stopped at Capilano getting some tickets for someone, and she was just too busy with something else there, was why she got us there too late. The whole point was "sunset watching", but it really wasn't! Also, the driver told us on the way to there, she said there was movies showing at 9:00pm, when we got there, there was none!

It was a reasonable tour, although a bit expensive. Unfortunately we suffered a large dose of fog on the night we went, so the sunset didn't happen and the night became dragged out while we waited for the tour to complete its allotted time so that we could return to out hotel. Probably would be good on a clear night!

Visibility was low so there wasn't much to do. Very disappointing. It wasn't a tour at all.

It was too rushed. The restaurants were busy so we did not have enough time to see bears or the movie. I did not have time to walk around. I recommend driving to this instead of making it a tour.

It was lovely watching the sun set from Grouse Mountain. We were very disappointed that we waited over an hour for our ride to show up. He was late and we had trouble contacting the tour office. The delay gave us less time in our already short time at the top of the mountain. We had time to eat dinner and that was it. We didn't visit any shops or the bear and bird exhibitions. The tour company may want to start the tour an hour earlier so they can pick everyone up and give us ample time to enjoy the mountain. I bought this tour for my husband's birthday so that he wouldn't have to drive and it would be a relaxing evening. Even half an hour longer would have been great. Also the microphone on the bus didn't work and we had trouble hearing the tour. We also had to change seats 3 times because the seats were broken.

Driver was great - office people friendly and helpful - but weather warning should be given. Snowing and foggy so we couldn't see a thing in front of our faces. We were stuck at the top for couple hours with nothing to do!

Extremely disappointed. It was nothing more than an overpriced bus ride. We could have easily bought tickets directly at the mountain. We had a vehicle and was staying in a hotel within 8 miles from Gross Mountain. The bus picked us up at the hotel, dropped us off at Grouse Mountain and picked us up again within 2 1/2 hours. When we arrived at the mountain, all shows were over and we could only hike and visit the gift shop. An absolute ripp-off !!!
