Thanks for watching! Are you afraid of heights or a brave soul who loves being up high? I *sort of* conquer my fear of heights in this video as we explore this beautiful area.

Hello Sarah. I wouldn't be totally confident as regards heights, but I would be more than confident on the Sea to Sky Gondola. You captured it really well.👍😊🇨🇮

Shannon Falls is truly stunning and we always love taking Gondolas! You guys got so high for sure! 10-12 minutes so ENOUGH TIME! Love that you guys had the whole ride to yourselves and it is truly stunning like you said. Especially the suspension bridge! View from the top is stunning! Love the rules!

LOL at 3:09! 😂 Are there opportunities to get closer to the falls on the hikes? It seemed like y'all were set back at a distance from them... That is not Go Travel On The Cheap -friendly, the gondola prices! 😎 So glad it was worth it though. "Jump and tuck and roll", hahaha! Always fun to be in a cloud! Those views are amazing... Too bad they did not have any beer for y'all to sample at the top! 😁

Can feel your happiness at getting to the waterfall without anyone else there! It’s always so exciting when you get a spot like that to yourselves and get all the shots without any people. Well done for doing that gondola, if you’re scared of heights that’s amazing, 12 minutes is quite a long gondola trip. Although that bridge actually looks scarier than the gondola 😅
@KitatheExplorer3 жыл бұрын
That is awesome you had 10 minutes at the falls before anyone came! That is a great tip to get there early for that! I definitely understand your pain of the gondola ride. I have taken them a few times and I usually stand or sit pretty still lol. But I would be more nervous of the suspension bridge.
@SaltyBeaverExplores3 жыл бұрын
The views from the gondola and top of mountain must be amazing! Good tips at the end. I couldn’t figure out why I have never seen it and then realized every time I have gone to Whistler was from the other end through Pemberton because we come down from the north.

The views are incredible there! We almost didn't go to Whistler and we are so glad we cancelled our city activities in Vancouver to take the sea to sky highway.

Love being able to get to a waterfall or a beautiful attraction before everyone else does, well done! Steve is afraid of heights as well, He'd was nervous at first on a couple sky gondolas we've rode recently as well, but was glad I forced him on! 😂Beautiful views once you got up though!

Great that there were hardly any people around at the falls and on the trails! The views from the gondola are sooo beautiful, wow! It sounds quite expensive, but totally worth it! The misty trails look so magical 😌 I like that you started and ended the video in the gondola with the beautiful views behind you 😊

If you have to choose between sea to sky gondola and peak to peak gondola, which one would you choose and why?

I only did the Sea to Sky, and we chose it because we wanted to do the trails and see some other sights in the area. Not sure about the peak to peak...

What a beautiful walk! So cool that you got to enjoy it without other people. Although I must say, I am relieved to hear that you edit people out of your photos. My husband thinks I'm crazy for doing it :P the sky gondola looked so cool! I love seeing beautiful places like this from a birds-eye view. Somehow, I find gondolas less scary than suspension bridges, although it was worth the view! Thank you for sharing!
