Quick! Come ride the Tram while it's still cool 🥶 (like tonight or tomorrow morning)
Come take a good look at the city, the river, the mountains in a whole new way. Then you can lay low while the temperature rises.

Shh... our little secret: very few crowds on the Tram after 7 pm. Which is also a great time to catch the golden hour light on the city, sunset on the mountains, and maybe grab a bite and a drink in South Waterfront.
Your date night is set!
