You feel like you are on top of the world up there. The breeze is great and you will never forget the views, because you will take your camera for sure. More

Can get crowded and you cannot see most of the view when its full of people. Not available on our way down and we were asked to refund the return ticket at the ticket outlet on Gardern Road. So to avoid this I suggest just taking a one way ticket going up - and just take the Bus going to... More

Long queues, relatively expensive, no view on the way up, tourist trap at the top. Do yourself a favour and take one of several buses. Cheaper, quieter, faster, and you can actually see the city as you climb up. Especially fun taking a green minibus back down! More

I have done the peak twice but the Peak Tram only 1.5 times. Luckily the only time I had to line up for it was the downward trip during the Autumn Festival (it was packed). The second time was the inclusive trip on the Big Bus tour. We chose not to take the tram while on the tour but instead... More

Located at Garden Road Peak Tram Lower Terminus* , the ride to the peak is very vertical , it feels like riding a roller coaster! Upon arrival, there are numerous souvenir shops... More

I was a little disappointed with the peak tram, as from the description it seemed like we would be traversing along the side of the mountain- zigzaggin on the edge. However it was only a vertical trip up a mountain peak. At the top is a Shopping Mall with a nice view of the city. It was ok, I just... More
