Spectacular views and we loved it. - We loved all about this from the glass elevator going up to viewing the wonderful 360 views whilst listening to the commentary on our phone. It wasn’t busy and I think that helped when we were doing it. We would def recommend this. Liz and Michael Melbourne, Australia.

Vancouver Lookout - Perfect clear day in Vancouver made this a beautiful 360 degree view from city to snow capped mountains. Located in Gastown. The waterways were in full motion and gave you a great view of the cruise port and cruise ships too. The information for the tour was accurate and very convenient for travelers walking in the downtown area. Very well maintained and well organized tour site.

Overlook the city - Very beautiful views despite overcast weather and rain (as is often the case in this season). It's worth the price of the visit, the view of the roofs of the buildings is fascinating and reminiscent of New York. Many details to discover...from above

World Class Experience. - One of the most enjoyable worldwide short time experiences I’ve had. Tcircular enclosed lookout floor has superb 360 deg views over Vancouver and the surrounding area, plus informative display boards. The lookout time is up to an hour, or as short/long as you wish. Well worth then having a meal in the revolving restaurant above the lookout. It is a quality offer (not fast food). The menu is broad and an adequate drinks list. A perfect place to eat and watch the life of Vancouver progress beneath you. Very well worth the time and cost. Full marks!

Underwhelming - The tower was clean and efficient but the view was just underwhelming. The tower was just not tall enough and the signage was poor.
