See all 38 reviewsAwesome man made engineering marvel. Wonderful building. Don’t miss visit 147th floor in a high speed elevator with takes less than 2 minutes! Mesmerising view. Breath taking experience. Free coffee, snacks on the lounge!!
Visiting the Burj Khalifa was definitely a bucket list experience, but it came with some significant drawbacks that I wish I had been better prepared for. The main issue was the crowds and wait times. Despite booking tickets in advance, we still faced incredibly long queues that stretched for what felt like hours. The observation deck was packed shoulder-to-shoulder with tourists, making it difficult to get a good spot at the windows for photos. Even with timed entry tickets, the whole experience felt rushed and overcrowded. However, once you actually make it to the viewing areas, the views are absolutely spectacular. Looking out over Dubai from 124 floors up is genuinely breathtaking - you can see the entire city sprawling out beneath you, the coastline stretching into the distance, and the intricate patterns of the Palm Jumeirah. On a clear day, the visibility is incredible, and you really get a sense of just how massive this city has become. The building itself is an impressive feat of engineering, and the high-speed elevators are an experience in themselves. The multimedia presentations during the ascent add some nice context about Dubai’s development. My advice would be to book the earliest possible time slot to avoid some of the crowds, and maybe consider upgrading to the higher floors if your budget allows - it might be worth it for a less chaotic experience. The views truly are unforgettable, but be prepared for the tourist crowds that come with visiting one of the world’s most famous landmarks.
For our visit we bought tickets online, opted for the fast track tickets which lets you jump the queue for the elevator going up and coming back down. You get a fast track sticker for your clothes so the guides can see you are priority. It worked really well for us as the queues were quite long, we went straight to the front. 😆
Such a pleasure to visit! I would recommend getting the tip top view! It was very very crowded at the bottom and on the lower levels so I am very thankful to have spent time at the amazing lounge at the top! The outside view is totally worth it! And you get delicious snacks both sweet and savory. Check out my YouTube channel for the full scoop- fromchaos2cosmos!! I would definitely recommend buying your tickets in advance. You have to enter through the mall and it is not super easy to find. Or at least it wasn’t for me because it was my first time there, and I couldn’t even describe to you how we found it so I recommend going early! The mall is giant so no problem getting there REALLY early to shop ;) But the gift shop at the Burj Khalifa is amazing as well so be sure to check that out
Wow. What a view there are 3 levels to go for. Floor 124 is standard 156 is the top we went for the middle floor 148. Go before 12 noon to get a lower rate. You can go to a lower floor if you like. Also one of the fastest lift 124 floors in 60 seconds. So smooth didn't even realise it was moving. Should definitely visit. Go out of your way to have the best views in the city
