An unforgettable experience! Edge Walk at Sky Views is an incredible adventure! We went in the afternoon without a reservation, and to our surprise, the waiting time was short – around 20 minutes. The walk along the edge was thrilling and the views were absolutely stunning! I felt completely safe the whole time. We were given phone cases, so we could take our own photos even though a professional photographer was with us. Buying the official photos is quite pricey (150 AED for one or 500 AED for all), but we decided to get them anyway. It’s something to keep in mind when planning your visit. The photos turned out great – although, honestly, our phone shots were even better 😉 Still, the photographer captured lovely pictures of me and my husband together, which made it totally worth it.

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.

Amazing and Extravagant experience. Riona and George were two remarkable assets of this place. They are gems, and the local guide at the entrance. We're thrilled about the edge walk, and the glass slides plus the observatory deck. An amazing date indeed.

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. ♥️
