Sky Views Dubai Observatory Tour

Edge Walk Dubai is not for the faint-hearted — it’s for the brave souls who want to literally step off the edge of a skyscraper and hang out 220m above the city! The safety briefing and harness system make you feel secure, but the first step outside will give you goosebumps. The view of Burj Khalifa, Sheikh Zayed Road, and the Arabian Gulf is jaw-dropping — no glass between you and Dubai’s skyline, just wind in your face and pure adrenaline. Pricey? Yes. Worth it for the once-in-a-lifetime rush? Absolutely.

Well, is it worth? Need to know what to expect. You get two floors of views, a slide,restaurant and the outside walking. You get with elevator to the 52nd floor. Elevator is quick and view is the other side from Burj Khalifa,but recording something is not possible due to many pillars and view obstructions. You arrive and the top floor view is not good as you far away from Edge so basically no good picture possible. The view itself is ok. So I did head to the below floor. The glass is right on the Edge,so the views are much better,like 180degrees. You can start with the sunset behind the coca cola arena & continue up to burj khalifa on another side. Rest was closed off. The glass walk is interesting fear-overcomming experience in itself, however the view is obstracted with too many pillars,normally hard to make a decent picture and then after sunset,the lights doesnt help either. The slide,funny experience,maybe 5m long. The view and also picture is better at night I would say,BUT 135 dirhams for that picture? You serious? Like come on,for maybe half,I would buy for the whole family,but like this. Seriously would like to know whats the conversion rate for those. Last,restaurant (didnt do the walk outside) is nice,with great view on Burj and menu has variety of option,thought would be more expensive. Unfortunately cant make a proper digital memory after its dark due all the lighting is destroying it. Too bad they didnt think about it. So for a picture,better during day. The burger was very tasty and didnt have to wait long even with other people around. So overall, to experience the view,the walk and slide,its for 80dirhams worth. Just as said,too bad the “attractions” were not better thought through.

If you're looking to take pictures with a stunning panoramic view of Dubai's skyline and Burj Khalifa in the background, Sky Views Observatory is a good option. The observatory offers a panoramic glass floor, a transparent slide, a café, and several other attractions. There are automatic cameras installed at key spots like the entrance, the glass slide, and the glass floor, which take your photos during the experience. To view or purchase the photos, you need to visit a designated photo booth. However, I must point out that one of the staff members at the photo booth was extremely rude and spoke to us in a very dismissive and unpleasant manner. It was a disappointing experience and I strongly urge the management at Sky Views Observatory to pay closer attention to how their staff interacts with visitors. Customer service should be a priority, especially in a tourist destination like this. As for the photos themselves — printing a single photo costs 135 AED, and there were about 15 photos taken in total. If you want to receive the photos digitally, you can only do so by purchasing *all* of them, which costs around 350 AED. This includes 3 printed photos. Unfortunately, there’s no option to choose just a few digital images or pay for them individually — it’s either one photo or the full package. Considering the ticket price is 80 AED, the cost of the photos feels very excessive. I understand that this is a tourist attraction, but these prices seem unreasonable. Also, I should mention that the quality of the photos was not impressive. In fact, many of the pictures were lower quality than what you could take with a phone. Some photos were poorly edited with artificial backgrounds that looked quite unprofessional. I sincerely hope that Sky Views Observatory improves both its customer service and photo service in the future. ♥️

My visit to Sky Views Observatory was absolutely unforgettable! I booked the full experience — the Glass Slide, Glass Walk, and the Gold Menu at Sky 52 Restaurant — and each part was incredible. The Glass Slide was such a thrilling rush, offering stunning views as I zipped down the transparent tube. The Glass Walk had me holding my breath — standing above the city with just glass beneath my feet was both exhilarating and surreal. After the adventure, I dined at Sky 52 and chose the Gold Menu, which was a true treat. The standout for me was the Gold Cheesecake — creamy, indulgent, and elegantly topped with real gold leaf. It was as luxurious as it sounds and absolutely delicious. The service was top-tier, and the entire dining experience matched the elegance of the views. This blend of thrill and fine dining made for a magical Dubai experience I won’t forget!

I had an absolutely amazing experience at the Sky Views Observatory.It was a thrilling and unforgettable adventure. The glass slide was such a fun and unique ride — gliding down a transparent tube from one floor to another high above the city gave me an exciting adrenaline rush. The glass walk was equally breathtaking. Standing on a clear floor and seeing the stunning view of Dubai beneath my feet was surreal! What truly took my breath away, though, was the panoramic view of Dubai from the observatory. Seeing the cityscape, the iconic Burj Khalifa from such a height was a moment I’ll never forget. Everything was well-organized, the staff were friendly and helpful, and safety was clearly a priority. If you’re in Dubai and looking for a mix of thrill and beauty, Sky Views Observatory is a must-visit!
