Experience The Grouse Mountain Skyride - Take the tram to a 1,200 metre (3,700 feet) viewpoint above the city and enjoy what the seasons have to offer. In summertime: Meander the mountaintop meadows and be amazed by the Logging Sports show. Be enthralled by the, now grown, orphaned grizzly bears at the Refuge for Endangered Wildlife. Next kids of all ages are enraptured by the raptor's daily bird show of hawks and owls - not even a fence between you and these beautiful birds!

There are options for single travelers to join most tours. Solo Travelers can choose to pay the single supplement and have their own room throughout the tour. For those willing to share, we also have a Twin Share option that is offered for the majority of our tours. This means you will be sharing the hotel rooms with another single, same gender traveller who also books the Twin Share option. If this is the case, there will be no single supplement charged to either of you. If we are unable to match you with another Twin Share traveler, there may be a single surcharge applied to cover the full cost of the rooms on some of our longer tours. Please enquire before finalizing your booking for full details.
