Morning rates - great value for families
Sulphur Mountain summit is easily accessible via the Banff Gondola. The ride takes just 8 minutes—you’ll get to enjoy the amazing views of six mountain ranges as you coast over the treetops. Once you’re at the 7,486-foot-high mountaintop, take a stroll along the ridgetop boardwalk before spending the afternoon at the multi-sensory theater, rooftop observation deck, restaurant and interactive exhibits. Buy your tickets online to skip the line. For fewer crowds, plan to be there before noon or late afternoon. You can get there from downtown Banff by public bus. – Tripadvisor

We've been on the Banff Gondola a few times but this time really exceeded our expectations. We booked a family rate for pre-10am boarding (we booked a 9:50am time slot). This meant our children's admissions were free, saving us over $100! When we arrived, we were allowed to join the boarding line immediately and the kids were given chocolate chip cookies. It took 10 minutes in line to board the gondola. We bought hot drinks from Castle Mountain Coffee when we reached the top and took our time walking all the different walkways and levels. It was a great experience!

An amazing attraction
We paid 220 for two adults and a child to ride the gondola and have dinner at northern lights restaurant. Worth every penny. Ride up and down was spectacular- a bit thrilling. Buffet dinner was better than I expected. Great selections and tasty. The hike on the boardwalk to the Sansons peak was fantastic. Views of Banff and the Bow valley are worth it. We went in April where it wasn’t busy so:it made the experience much better. The temp T the top can be 10 C degrees colder than the base, so be prepared especially if you want to experience the outside- who wouldn’t.?
