Spectacular Ride.
The Peak 2 Peak Gondola ride is an absolutely top-of-the-list must do in Whistler. The views from the gondolas are simply spectacular. The tickets are not cheap but you must know beforehand that you are getting not only a to-and-fro ride between the Whistler Peak and the Blackcomb Peak, but much more tan that. You get a ride from Whistler Village base or from Blackcomb base up to the starting point of the red P2P gondolas, and back again. Once at the top of Whistler you can get up to suspension bridge, or at the Blackcomb mountain you can take a free bus ride to the 7th Heaven chair lift and get to the top of the ski slopes. Furthermore you can ride the P2P gondolas as many times as you like for the day, as long as you don’t take the ride down to the base again.
At the peaks of either the Whistler or Blackcomb mountain there are restaurants and washrooms where you can enjoy your meals gazing at the beautiful scenery. You can also do some shopping for souvenirs or clothes.
The usual P2P gondolas are red in colour and there is no waiting required to get into one, but there are some silver coloured gondolas, fewer in number, which have a glass floor. You may have to wait around 15 minutes to get into one. There is a good chance of spotting wild bears on the slopes below from a gondola.
The gondolas are closed and cosy, but be prepared with your jackets at the top of the mountains. When we went up there was some rain as well, which chilled us to the bone.
It is well worth a trip.
