Day in Grouse mountain
We really enjoyed our time in Grouse mountain. My kids were excited to see Coola, lumberjack show, owl talk, gondola and in general beautiful views. Also Altitude restaurant serves delicious food and the ambiance is very cozy
Response from the operator: Thank you, Mila, for taking the time to leave us a review! We're so glad to hear you and your family had a fabulous visit to the Peak of Vancouver.

Excellent
I visited in August 2026 for the first time and really enjoyed it. There was so much to do, the cable car ride, gondola, lumberjack show, bird show, seeing the grizzly bear, and the views were amazing. Transport was free via the shuttle from Canada Place, however the return journey was more difficult having to queue and obtain a ticket first to gain entry to the bus. The later the bus the more infrequent they are. Overall however a great day.
Response from the operator: Thanks for sharing your kind feedbak with us! We're glad to hear you had a memorable visit, and we hope to welcome you again in the future.

One barn owl and one sad grizzly.
Expensive for a gondola ride. One barn owl and one sad grizzly bear. I suppose worth as a trail hike.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Please be assured that our resident Owls and our Grizzly, Coola, are very well taken care of by our team of wildlife experts who dedicate their work to caring for and learning from our wildlife. If you have any further concerns you'd like to share, please reach out to us at guestservices@grousemountain.com.

Beautiful place if a sunny day.
It is well worth but try not to go on a musty or rainy day like we did as you can’t see anything. Sadly one of the 2 bears have died but sooo amazing to see one, very close, just in nature with lots of room. I recommend checking their website tho as we went on Oct 2 and the birds in motion had ‘gone home’, chairlift only really for zip liners ( which looked fun), the red skylight wasn’t working and only a few eating places open. Assuming it still costs the same. Amazing place tho.
Response from the operator: Thank you for leaving us a review, Rose! We're glad you enjoyed your visit and we hope to welcome you back on a sunnier day!

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vancouver.
How much does Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vancouver usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vancouver is not rushed.
Is Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 612 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vancouver, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket?
+
Around 214 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vancouver can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vancouver and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Grouse Mountain Admission Ticket start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vancouver within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vancouver?
+
On Outty we rank every Vancouver experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Grand Bicycle Tour of Vancouver, The Stanley Park Bicycle Tour, Vancouver City Sightseeing Tour: Capilano Suspension Bridge & Vancouver Lookout. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vancouver?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vancouver?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
