We loved the bridge and the history of the bridge. The atrial tram ride was nice. However, the Playground area, zipline and giant swing ride took away from the beauty of the gorge and the bridge. No… Full review by Helen R

A:
The senior discount gets you the same ticket as other - just discount price. The ticket included the ability to ride the tram across the gorge. Ability to walk across the bridge, see the show that talks about who the gorge was formed and how the bridge was built. Along with the movie - there was a show about the birds that live in the area - which was VERY interesting. The lady who spoke about the birds - was AWESOME. Definitely worth seeing. There is some other stuff for kids - but we are seniors and the temps were setting records for how hot - so didn't explore much more. We had been out all day and were tired. There was a BBQ restaurant on the edge of the gorge which smelled really good but we had eaten before we went up to the top of the gorge - so we weren't hungry. Hope this helps.
