Highlighted reviews from other travelers
It was a great experience despite the massive numbers of folks going up on the Gondola. Naturally this is to be expected. Everyone was very respectful and courteous. The view from the top of Sulfur Mountain down to Banff Townsite is spectacular and could not be accomplished other than by Gondola. The Town of Banff idea of transportation coaches to Sulfur Mountain is a great in very much reducing vehicular traffic. That said there is still way too much traffic with very few areas to park if one did want to drive. The Roam Coach is the way to go!
Breathtaking. A little expensive but I’m glad we did it
