The whole experience was wonderful, other than the weather, which, of course, they have no control over. The price is reasonable and the employees are so great! My friend uses a cane so the employee who loaded us both ways made sure she had a seat in the car. The views are awesome!

The gondola was fun and the views were beautiful! The gondola does not sway in the wind and was very sturdy. They do not weigh you but have a max weight posted of 2300 lbs and I think it was 11 people max. We saw 11 people get in the gondola while we were there and it was pretty tight. Our group was 9 people plus the conductor and I wouldn’t have wanted even one more person. The ride up and down is pretty short. There are great views from the top of the mountain, about 9,000ft up. There are a few trails to walk, a gift shop and small cafe at the top. Recommend bringing binoculars. Can feed chipmunks at the top, they have peanuts you can buy. Our gondola conductor was the same going up and back and he was very friendly and helpful and informational. Unfortunately I didnt get his name, but he was tall with bright red hair :) Recommend!

The tram is really worth it if you want to see amazing views. The ride is smooth and only takes 5 minutes. The guides are informative and friendly. At the top, the hike is easy, and there are plenty of chipmunks waiting for a handout. They sell unsalted peanuts in the gift shop. Really a treasure.

The guide on the tram was very knowledgeable about the area and pointed out many sites on the way up. On the top is a nice gift shop that serves snacks and drinks. Many trails and view points on top as well

We were able to get tickets for opening day (May 25, 2024). The ride is only 5 minutes to the top. Not much to do up there, you can walk 3/4 mile to the summit. After 2 years of going without human beings, the chipmunks are nowhere to be seen. If you are patient they will eventually come out of hiding! Anyway it's a fun activity in Estes Park, particularly after 3 days of hiking at RMNP.

The views were amazing! The only thing I disliked was that they cram you with a bunch of other people. I get they are limited on time but I had a family of 5 plus pregnant and they still added 5 others plus the employee so it made being able to turn comfortably to view everything uncomfortable.

The tram exceeded our expections. There is so much beauty at the top. The trails were smooth & clean. The chipmunks numbered in the hundreds if not thousands. The gift shop was nice & their prices were affordable. Great service!

I am petrified if heights and really didn't want it to stop me from doing this. I read other reviews from people also afraid of heights. I am SO glad I did it! The tram did not sway, it was stable and a very smooth ride. There's an employee in the tram with you and ours was so kind and reassuring. I would suggest going early, fewer people and were were on a tram by ourselves. I have no regrets and will do it again.

The views were most definitely worth the tram trip. It is absolutely gorgeous of the Rocky Mountains and the city of Estes Park. Loved the walk around the top of the mountain and the cute shopping and coffee! We purchased peanuts to feed the chipmunks and that was a blast! I recommend the tram as a must while visiting Estes Park!
