An experienced and knowledgeable guide will accompany you on your trip, sharing a few insights about the area, its history and the wealth of wildlife nearby during your ride.
Over the course of your seven-minute ride, you’ll ascend to a height of 7,425 feet (2,263m) above sea level, enjoying superlative views of the surrounding mountain ranges as you climb. Soon you arrive at the alpine upper station, where you can take in panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

You might spot a ptarmigan, ground squirrels, hoary marmots (famous for their whistling alerts), pikas and sometimes even bighorn sheep along the way.
Before you leave the mountain, make sure to stop at the Summit Restaurant for a meal at the top of the Canadian Rockies. Visit the gift shops at the upper or lower stations, where you can purchase a souvenir for friends back home of your memorable trip.

Overall the experience was enjoyable! A downside would be the trees due to the wildfire, so the view was not the greatest. Other than that, the workers and general activities given were great!
justin_m, Aug 2026
Amazing food with a great view. The drivers of the trams are extremely knowledgeable on the area and can answer pretty much any question you have
Cynthia_V, Aug 2026
The tram was a smooth ride about 7 mins long with beautiful views. We hiked to the summit of whistlers and the views were beautiful! Highly recommend it.
Robert_B, Aug 2026
While this is probably a gotta do it's kind of pricy for those who aren't going to hike the trails. As 70 year olds we're not doing that. We just went up to see the view and perhaps do lunch. The recent wildfires renders the view mostly meaningless and the restaurant is on a 2nd level only accessible by stairs. We went up and back in 40 minutes. Sadly reservations are are required in advance and non-refundable so you can't evaluate whether this will have value for you.

Great view, food and service! We added on the 3 course meal at the summit restaurant. Reserved table with a prime view.
Ossama_K, Aug 2026
The dining experience was very disappointing, we were seated in a very poor spot in the restaurant because we were 5 and there is no table set up in the main dining area with good view for more than 4, staff was unfriendly and not helpful.when time came to order from the 3 courses dinner, they said my 13 years old son has to order from the kids menu, although I wasn’t warned or given an option while I was booking, they said we can’t upgrade his meal to adult and pay difference. After arguing and bringing manager, they said we can give adult meal with extra charge of $33 but when the bill came, it turned to be $38 . This experience ruined the whole evening. I don’t recommend this package for anyone.

Me and my partner had a good experience riding the sky tram. But was disappointed to see the burnt trees along the ride. Hope the nature will cure itself in couple of years.
scotthahn, Jul 2026
This was a great experience.
I highly recommend it. Make sure to plan on eating a meal up top with a view, hiking and bring plenty of water
Kathe_B, Jul 2026
It was awesome riding up the sky tram!! Once there we climbed up to the summit of Whistlers mountain! Wow!! Beautiful views nice up there but it is a definite incline!!
Nancy_c, Jul 2026
Efficiently run, beautiful to see Jasper from the mountains!! An option to walk to the summit, which we did not do, however many did! Given an hour and a half, so plenty of time to hike or enjoy something in the cafe!
Steven_F, Jul 2026
Great ride to the top of Whistler Mountain. Beautiful views of the city of Jasper and the mountains and lakes in the area. Also a great opportunity to hike to the top of Whistler Mountain and see even better views.
Carol_W, Jun 2026
I thought it was run very professionally, Olly (Aussie) was knowedgeable, gave great safety instructions before leaving, great photo opportunity
Leslie_B, Jun 2026
It was a very good adventure, unfortunately very cloudy and we realize there’s nothing you can do about the weather! We enjoyed our day
Ireli_B, Jun 2026
The ride was interesting, but they cram up to 24 people into 2 trams that take you up and down the mountain. If it is windy, your tour time will be delayed. If you're like us, you might get stuck up the mountain over 2 hours. We could have hiked the hour down, but my 70-year old dad could not. They said only once in the last 10 years has any one been stuck overnight, but I didn't realize that was even a possibility until we were bored and started talking to staff. Everyone was lovely, and the information was interesting. Just be aware you should not book another reservation after this for the same day in case wind delays you.
Susan_C, Jun 2026
Views were fantastic. Tram was too crowded. You couldn’t move or see out each side of the tram would have been nicer with fewer people
Linda_H, Jun 2026
Friendly staff

Not great weather but still a great adventure
Nice cafe
Fun other guests

Trip up Whistlers mountain. Dress warm, the summit is cold and recommended hike, a must go… The view at the summit are amazing.
Caroline_A, May 2026
A fun ride to the top of the mountain. There are only two trams, moving in opposite directions, and my ride up was quite crowded. At the top, you can choose to hike up a rocky, snowy mountain, so be prepared for that! I opted to have a meal at the restaurant (which only serves food after 5:30). A fun activity and I would highly recommend.
David_K, May 2026
The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. The views at the top are unbelievable and the restaurant is good value.
Paula_H, Oct 2025
Staff were all friendly, the scheduled time was on time, and the ride up and back were worth the money.
Jonathan_O, Oct 2025
Loved the experience - great facility with lovely staff. Easy to organise a shuttle with frequent rides available. Great views from the top.
Connie_B, Oct 2025
Easy booking and arrival, great experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the hike after the skytram trip to the top!
Li_K, Oct 2025
The trip was very good, and we had excellent views. However, the worst part was that the Jasper SkyTram system shown up our Viator booking number. We had to wait for more than an hour to sort out the issue, which caused us to miss all the plan for the rest of the day.
mark_w, Sep 2025
Incredible views, hiking as leisurely or strenuous as you want, and the café is a must for lunch as the burger and beef sandwiches were exceptional!
Odalis_S, Sep 2025
Friendly staff and well run operation. Gondola was large and the operator was informative. Great view up at the top but very windy. Be ready for cold and wind. I didn’t stay long after getting pictures.
Jennifer_L, Sep 2025
Really fun trip up Whistler mountain. We left at 10.30am and had a nice coffee and pastries before heading up the mountain to the top. It's high altitude so expect to go slow. Well worth getting to the top for the views. Very easy trip back down.
Deanna_F, Sep 2025
Book online before showing up. Dress warm! Dogs allowed. Free parking, need about 1.5 hours with kids.
Donna_K, Sep 2025
We really enjoyed seeing the mountain top even though the visibility was very poor because of forest fires in the Northwest Territories. Worth the trip under any circumstances!
Ashraf_A, Aug 2025
Be ready to hike up the mountain, a view that will take your breath away. Walk above the clouds and enjoy
April_p, Aug 2025
Awesome views! The ride took 7 min. There is a restaurant and observation deck. There is also a hike to the summit, if interested. We did it and glad we did. It is up hill though.
