Burj Khalifa

I Did Not stay at the hotel, only visited the Burj for a day trip. This was a very nice experience. Views were phenomenal. We did the Sky lounge ticket (skipped the 1.5hr line). The cost was worth it! We also had complimentary cookies, tea, and coffee on the 148th floor. It was neat to eat that I've visited the currently, tallest building in the world!

If you are in Dubai then you really have to go up the tallest building in the world even if it will cost you £35. This can be a very busy attraction and once you are in the line there is no indication anywhere how long it will be before you get to the lift to take you up to the first viewing area, which would be a help. So make sure that you have no time critical events after your visit, you will most likely miss it. The time on the ticket is a work of fiction. Make sure that you visit the toilet as once in the line there are no toilets! Once up there the views are spectacular. You can see all Dubai life going on around you. Is it value for money? I don’t think so, but it’s so iconic, the owners know this and they have a massive debt to service that really they can charge what they like and people will still go. Personally I find the building better from the outside looking up, especially in the evening when it’s lit up. Spectacular.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Service by Amrit – Floor 153, Burj Khalifa Our experience on Floor 153 of the Burj Khalifa was made truly unforgettable thanks to the outstanding service of our waiter, Amrit. From the moment we arrived, he was welcoming, professional, and incredibly attentive. Not only were his recommendations perfect and his attention to detail impeccable, but he also kindly offered to take a few photos for us—and he genuinely put effort into making sure they came out beautifully. It was such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more special. Amrit’s hospitality elevated our entire visit, and we’re sincerely grateful for the care he showed. Thank you, Amrit!

It was a quite stunning experience! We found the best time to go is in the early evening so you get the end of the day, without it being too hot, and the beginning of the night, when all the lights are coming on!

Booked the Sky At The Top, so was able to reach level 148. Booked a morning slot from 11am, and was starting to get really busy. There is some walking from the ticket booth to the actual lifts going up, so just for info. Still had to wait a little while for the elevators. Views were great, even on the hazy day that is normally experienced in Dubai. Took some photos then went down to level 125 & 124. Had a walk around and some more photos. Went to the Mall afterwards.
