You can go a million times and the peace and relaxation of the view and scenery just makes it worth it each and every time. Every visit we have a list of the same things we do and this is one on the list. Never gets old.

Went up the Skylift with my girlfriend's 5 yr old. She loved it. Wasn't scared of the heights at all. The whole ride up the side of the mountain was hilarious. She loved the flowers & commented on them all the way up the mountain until it was time to get our picture taken at the top. Lol. The view... More

Reasonably rated, nice easy ride knowledgeable crew. We took the lift up to go ice skating, and go to the small animal exhibit. Really good photo opportunities, small child and special needs accessible. Its a short ride up and down under 15 minutes 1 way. You can ride with the same ticket i think it was for 2 days.

Friends of ours paid to do the lift and it started thundering do they had to immediately come down and get off. They were refused their money back and were instead given a "complimentary ride" ticket. They were leaving town and would not be able to use the ticket (good for 3 adults and 2 kids) so they gave it... More

Hubby and I took a trip to the smoky mountains and we rode this lift. It was an amazing ride up the side of the mountain and you even ride across a street where people are driving. Well worth the money.

Lovely Ride, The kids enjoyed it, We took our 7,9 and 10 and they loved it. I would recommend going at night, the view is much better. Also I loved that they took your picture in the sky, pictures were reasonably priced.

$13 a person is well worth it for such a thrilling ride up the mountain. I have always had a mild fear of heights, but I decided to ride and am so glad I did! It takes 10 minutes to get to the summit and once there you are afforded breathtaking views of the Smoky Mountains and Downtown Gatlinburg. There... More
