Unparallelled view of beautiful Dubai, the journey begins at the lower ground level of the Dubai Mall where the reception desk can be found.Multimedia presentations will entertain visitors all the way to the elevator cue. At 10m/second speed it was indeed a fast ride to the observation desk..and truly youcan say Im on "the top of the world" because this... More

Worth a visit if only for the amazing views...but the lift to get you there is too small and crowded making the journey up and down rather unpleasant

"At the Top" is really only about 2/3 up Burj Khalifa, but you can't miss an opportunity to visit the world's tallest building. But the view is great from the observation floor. Reservations made on the Internet (at least a day ahead) cost about $25 US per person; walk-up costs $100 per person! Entrance is underground some distance from the... More

Run efficiently, needs to be booked ahead online. Would have been better view on a clearer day, if there is such a thing in Dubai. Of course a must do while you are there.

Overall we liked it. The entrance is located in Dubai Mall. It is better to buy tickets online in advance. We were told that the price on entrance might as high as 100 USD at peak time. We could not buy tickets for sun set for 4 days in advance so took the tour at midday. The whole tour takes... More

We booked our tickets on line direct 4 days in advance of our visit and already all the sunset times were sold out, so we opted for 15:30pm. So if you want a sunset view, book early. On arrival we collected our tickets and headed off. I can't believe how quick that lift was! It was rapid! Felt about 20... More
