Too highlights and lowlights
1) cheap! Only $5 per person round trip
2) great views from the top
3) service wasn't very friendly
A co-worker and I decided to take a trip on the incline while on a business trip in Pittsburgh. The incline is about a 3 minute drive from downtown so very convenient if you are staying in the area. You have to pay to park, but it's not super pricy - $2 for the first hour and $1 per hour after that. The incline round trip ride is $5 per person round trip and they only take cash!!
The service wasn't very friendly and the attendants seemed a little annoyed that the visitors (mostly tourists) didn't know what they were doing. However, the service is totally worth bearing through as the views from the top are incredible! There is plenty of room for photo ops outside, and some historical info about the incline in the entry building at the top.
There are a few restaurants nearby at the top as well. We had lunch up there and the views were stunning! Overall, definitely a bucket list item for anyone who lives in or is visiting the Pittsburgh area.
