For photographers as first timers, you get a good vantage point of the city with a good picturesque view as far as the eye can see, provided it's a beautiful day weather wise. It's not cheap to take the tour but you can get a bundle package that gets you into the Biodome as well. Definitely, a major tourist hot spot given what the area offers such as the Botanical Gardens, Biodome, and Insectarium, plus the label as the venue for the 1976 Summer Olympics.
