We did the open top bus ride from the East gate of Glacier NP to the visitor center in the middle. Did that the day after we drove the entire Going to the Sun road with our car, and around the south border back to St Mary.
The east side has some great pull overs that the bus stopped at where we couldn't find a spot to park in our car. The east side has a wider road, but suffered a lot of fire a few years ago and isn't very picturesque. Saw a moose and a grizzly from the bus.
A memorable stop, but we found better scenery in the Canadian Rockies around Banff and in the Rockies around Boulder, Colorado. Scenic beauty that is hard to describe or capture with a camera. Highly recommended!
