Went to Vancouver last year. Foolishly thought that all of Canada would be as amazing! Went to Toronto this year, and was disappointed (to say the least)!! Anyway, made me think about the highlights of my trip to Vancouver, but I found this really difficult (everything was amazing)!!! Anyway, Grouse Mountain stood out - it is a place of great... more

Loved Grouse Mountain. We went there at the end of June. We also took the Sea Bus from the Waterfront and the 236 express bus. We got a day ticket for all the transport that cost us $7 as we are both over 65. During the day both the ferry and the buses go at 15 minute intervals. After a... more

We went to Grouse Mountain on a warm and sunny day in June. The views from the gondola and the mountain top were spectacular. We took a further walk up to the very top of the mountain by the skiing chairlift drop-off, up a steep dirt road that's used by the SUV that brings parasailers up, for even more spectacular... more

We went in May 2008, on a whim, snow was already gone, but the tourism BC lady insisted there were plenty of activities in spring/summer. Lumberjack show funny/amusing. Bird of prey show informative. Looked at the grizzly bears and wolves who slept and never moved. Nice views from the gondola. Would have been more fun if we had hiked up... more

We went skiing there and found it to be way to crowded. 1 hour waits for lifts and long lines prevented us from enjoying ourselves. The gondola is spectacular but don't go during the Xmas Week unless you get there real early. The snow is wet and it gets foggy on the slopes. Less money than Whislter ($47 vs. *$83)... more

A wonderful cable car to the top of the mountain giving great views of vancouver and the surrounding areas. We saw the grizzly bears which are lovely and there are some walks aroudn the mountain. You can also walk across to some other peaks if you have 4 hours + to spend. We walked part of the way and the... more

Grouse Mountain is a enjoyable family outing. The fun parts of the outing are: * Gondola ride to the top * LumberJack show * Bird show (...hawks) * Watching the bears thru the fence You will be there for at least a couple hours. Overall, it is a nice tourist attraction. BEWARE: Crime is bad in the area. Car breakins... more

We travelled on a tour, with 3 year old to Grouse Mountain on a wet weather day, knowing that the views wont be there but hoping to have fun skating at the top. The good news was that a fresh fall of snow had fallen the night before, what we didnt find out until we got to the top was... more

We waited until the last day of our holiday to visit Grouse Mountain, and wish we hadn't bothered. Whilst neither of us ski, we were keen to experience the ice skating and sleigh rides which were included within the general admission price (which was not cheap). However, as soon as we arrived we were disappointed. The 'skating pond' is little... more
