📖 What to expect at Sky Views Observatory Dubai

Your visit centres on the observatory, around 219.5 metres above the city. From here you get panoramic Downtown Dubai views, including the Burj Khalifa, while the 25-metre glass floor adds a completely different angle: straight down.

This is where the ticket options start to differ. Selected versions can add the Glass Slide, a suspended transparent tube descending from the 53rd floor to the level below, or the Edge Walk, an outdoor walk around the building's edge while secured by a harness, with no windows or barriers between you and the view.
