Amazing views - Not inexpensive but well worth the trip. Enjoy a scenic drive up to Squamish and then ride to the sky! Amazing views obviously! Sit and have a beer and a snack at the top and pick one of several well marked trails to walk.

Stunning - This was an amazing trip with a stunning view. I was travelling with a person in a wheelchair and the staff asked me about their needs to ensure everything was safe for all of us. They slowed the ride down to an almost stop so I could get on and off. The views as you went up were amazing but the view from the top was absolutely stunning. Do take the time to walk over the suspension bridge if you are able as the views over there are even more spectacular.

Discounted tickets on the weekends after 4 pm - I spent some time debating if I should do this gondola or the Peak 2 Peak in Whistler, but ended up doing both. Sea to Sky has more hiking trails, while Peak 2 Peak is more just for views. If you're driving between Vancouver and Whistler, the Sea to Sky Gondola is about a halfway point on the 2 hour drive on the Sea to Sky Highway. If you're trying to decide which direction you go, it's easier to go when you're driving North to Whistler, since that's where it's located. Otherwise you'll have to make a U-turn somewhere. Not a big deal but a little annoying. We did the Sea to Sky Gondola on the drive back to Vancouver, so we needed to do a U-turn to get to the park, and another U-turn after to get back on the road to Vancouver. We planned it for a Sunday at 4 PM because they have discounted weekend tickets if you go 4 PM or later, so we bought the tickets online. This is a good time to go if you're just planning to ride the gondola up, get some views, and do some short trails. But if you are an avid hiker, they have much longer trails of varying difficulties, and I would recommend going in the morning since they close at 8 PM (weekend summer hours - be sure to check before you go). It wasn't too crowded at the time we went. There is a suspension bridge up there, which is the main attraction but there are ways to go around it if that's not your thing. We did two of the quick trails and in total, we spent about an hour there, which included the gondola ride up/down, suspension bridge, exploring at the top, and taking photos. There are two sides for the parking lot, with someone directing traffic. You need to pay at the meter/through the app for parking so don't forget to do that before you head up. Overall, it was a nice visit, though pricey. We paid $45 CAD compared to the full price of $67.95. If you're buying the full price tickets, buy online to save 10%, and you'll also get to skip the line. I'm not sure if it's really worth full price, but I'm glad we go to go on the discounted price.

Unsympathetic - I was injured a day before tour and unable to go. They refused a refund. I will not book 3rd party again!
