Grouse Mountain Sunset Tour

Vancouver, Canada

Finish a day of sightseeing with a sunset visit to Grouse Mountain. Travel by aerial tramway high above the alpine forest for breathtaking views over Vancouver as the sun goes down.

Begin your tour traveling through world famous, Stanley Park and over the spectacular Lions Gate Bridge. You will be taken to the base of Grouse Mountain where North America's largest aerial tramway system will take you on a one mile journey high above the second growth forest and between the mountain peaks. The views are breathtaking - the city skyline, ships in the harbor, the glittering Strait of Georgia, and far-off Vancouver Island.

When you reach the top of the mountain plateau, 3,700 feet (1,100 meters) above sea level, you will have two hours to explore, dine or just enjoy the fantastic view. Choose from a fabulous array of restaurants where Grouse Mountain chefs will delight you with the finest selections of west coast and specialty seafood dishes. From fine dining in the Observatory to the casual fare at Altitudes Bistro, there is a menu to please any palate.

Enter Grouse Mountain's mile high Theatre in the Sky to see Canada's first high definition video presentation "Born to Fly". Experience British Columbia from an eagle's perspective on an aerial adventure exploring the natural wonders of the Pacific Province. During your visit you can also visit the orphaned grizzle cubs, Grinder and Coola in their protected natural habitat.

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 !!!

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!
