What visitors say

Craig Adams

It is an amazing view once you reach here. It is well worth the visit. The summit offers a cafe with a large variety of refreshments on offer and a gift shop. Due to high demand for the cable car, I would advise planning your return trip from midday so that you are not queuing for a very long period of time.

Lovely way to travel to the summit of Great Orme with wonderful views (weather dependent) but annoying that it's not clear until you're almost at the ticket office that it's cash only (and the nearest ATM is back down the hill on the pier)!

Cable car is good experience. We can reach the either by cable car or tram or with your own vehicle or even you can trek. Views are amazing to see
