Stunning. We started at the bottom and had a coffee and cake at the cafe up the top before coming back down. We went on a weekday which, I imagine, cut down on wait times significantly. I'm sure this place would be absolutely packed on weekends. Moderately priced for a return trip - if you see yourself visiting 4+ times a year it's definitely worth getting their annual pass, which gives you unlimited access for $69.

Repeatedly taking coach tour groups here and it is always well loved. Terrific, caring service by the attendants in case anyone needs help getting on. And then there’s the views!!!! WOW. Food and coffee at the top of worth stopping awhile for and just taking in the views a bit longer

Great facility with great views. Cafe has decent food selection and make a good coffee. Facility was civil and clean. Only qualm was the queue to come from the base to the peak - staff were putting 2 people in a gondola when there was a wait time of over 30 mins. Need to load the gondola to reduce the wait time.

Waste of time and money. At the bottom there is a glorified 7/11. No where to go except back up. At the top not much different. 48 dollars for nothing. The drive along the coast home was much more enjoyable. Shame the 48 dollars was wasted instead of filling the car with fuel for a better drive. Staff are not much to speak of either. Had never been and wish I never did

Our family visited the Eagle and we had a great time. Great parking and toilet block very clean. The price was reasonable for the experience gained. The view was amazing, ride was smooth and a comfortable space for two adults and 4 children. The staff were very friendly. Would highly recommend a visit.

Pretty good. Nothing extraordinary. Smooth ride. May be a bit over priced. The hill top is good, you can enjoy a nice stroll. Saw plenty of kangaroos. I'd recommend you just drive up and skip the eagle.

I must admit I am terrified of heights BUT this place should be on the must do list for your time here. The views were breath taking. Great for a date and for families as well. Can't wait to come back.

Great attraction, well maintained cable cars with amazing views of the area including the beach. Helpful and friendly staff. Very crowded during holidays, so if possible should go during a week day.

Well worth the 5 hour round trip to see this pretty part of the Mornington Peninsula. I was very scared to go on the gondola, until I saw them up close. Very impressed by the well maintained, safe, gondolas. The price is not too bad. We had a great time checking out the trails and sightseeing. Perfect family trip :)

We came here as one of the many adventures we did to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. Was a super cold day but still so worth it! Views were amazing!! Make sure you make a day of it and do some of the hiking trails at the top of the mountain! So much fun, and so many great lookouts! Maybe even take a picnic!
