4.00Beautiful scenery up top! Go early as it gets very busy! You are limited on the time you can spend at the top(1 hour).
Spectacular views. Well worth it!

5.00The view from the top is amazing. The lines are longer coming down after sunset but definitely worth a little wait.
Try it. You’ll like it.

5.00this was an awesome experience. The gondola ride up a very steep mountain, which gives you awesome views and then just being so close to the mountains at the top. A beautiful building with exhibits and washrooms. And all of the event was very well put together.
