Amazing

It was a kind of confusing start to the day as when we arrived (around 15mins before the bus arrived) there was no one there. So we were running around the building trying to figure out if the stop where we were on duke street was right. But anyway after we got picked up by our wonderful driver (at 10:04am) we were able to get to coronet peak in no time at all it was beautiful up there and we’d definitely go again worth every cent.

Fantastic experience

This very reasonable trip is a must do activity; coronet peak has longer gondola ride experience & it is in higher elevation than Skyline QT; the mountain ranges view is way more outstanding & superb; I will try it again in my next QT trip ! Helpful & friendly gondola crew & shuttle driver
