We were lucky - the weather was sunny and dry, though a cold wind. The Tram ride is fun and once at the top the views are magnificent with a real sense of the dramatic.

The tram ride was fun, if a bit windy. Can be cool. A fascinating construction, well worth a try. Takes 48 people each time, changing at Halfway Station. £6 for adults when we went, no concessions.

A unique experience. Plenty of trams when busy. Great views. However it was quite expensive. But you can go up then back down on the cable car.

What a fanastic day we had with twins age 3yrs, children enjoyed getting on and off tram at Half Way station. Well worth the price, especially as it was a sunny day. Views from the Great Orme are fantastic... for any age. Children enjoyed the huge slide, more larger play area for older children also. Crazy Golf only £3 pp.... More

Very friendly staff, clean and comfortable carriage and those views.......! Interesting displays at the half way point too. Took the tram up and walked back down which is a must if you're feeling energetic!
