We had some rain but even that didn’t stop us from enjoying Grouse Mountain. Lots to see and do - the gondola was wonderful, we enjoyed the lumberjack show and even got a glimpse of a grizzly bear. Well worth the experience.

We came here due to great reviews and expectations were that we would have lots of great experiences and many opportunities for pictures. The park would have been great if over half of the experiences weren’t closed, which we were not notified of before or after booking. The only attractions open were the gondola, lumberjack show, an owl and the bear. I’m very disappointed. I feel that due to being only able to see less than half of what the park offered, we should receive half of a refund.
Try to plan for a clear day. We were 40 feet from the Lumberjack show and could not see performance.
The 1/2 day out was carefree, informative & very enjoyable. Given freedom to choose activities & meals, with logistics totally organised by my welcoming guide, Joseph.
Really enjoyed the exlerience although it was very wet we still explored the mountain Coola and Grinder the bears were lovely . My husband was apprehensive a bout the gongola but really enjoyed the ride. Definately recommend this activity for all ages
I liked the young lady that drove us to Grouse Mountain, but we did not get a guided tour of the city or mountain area. We were just dropped at the gondola and went up the mountain on our own. I didn't even know anything about the salmon hatchery?? It was our girls first tour so maybe training was the issue. Just wanted to let you know. We did enjoy the Lumberjack show. We didn't see any wildlife but it was raining.
A small group trip with individual options. Very friendly and obliging host, took me to an extra stop which was very interesting.
This is a private tour and self guided at th mountain. Paul was great and accommodating. He knew the area and was very pleasant. The view and experience unforgettable!
Amazing. Very well looked after by Joshua the guide. Easy ride from downtown to Grouse Mountain and tickets issued promptly for the blue gondolas. Enough activity at the top including a further cable ride, bears, owls, cafe and hiking trail. 2.5 hours was enough for us as it was quite cold and murky at the top. Coming down the mountain the mist cleared to give beautiful views. Thank you to Joshua who went over and above and out of his way to make it a memorable experience for us.
Wonderful friendly and informative guide. Great trip up to Grouse Mountain to see the resident grizzly bears, and the stunning view of course. Stopped in at the salmon hatchery on the way which was interesting
It’s lovely to hear your guide made the trip friendly, informative, and that the salmon hatchery added an interesting bonus 🐻
