A great place, the view is amazing, but, as experience has shown, in order to enjoy, you need to take tickets more expensive, they are worth it, you do not need to stand in a huge queue for the elevator, and in the evening hours, when the view is the coolest, there are a lot of people. I went both on regular tickets and on those that are more expensive, so as not to spoil the impressions, it is worth paying more once
The tower is interesting both in the afternoon and in the evening. If you have not been there before, then it is worth visiting, but you need to be prepared for large queues for entry / ascent, which is also slowed down by "VIP" customers who skip without a queue. There was also an unpleasant moment with broken screens in the elevator and outside in the shopping center (you want to show the children how it should look and here it is (I didn't expect it, but everything was fine before (I wasn't a couple of times), which are part of the show. Otherwise, for more than 7 years, nothing has changed, not a new merch, not the frequency of washing the windows of the viewing area, but! Also, the viewing part was closed with bars, now you can't put your hand through the window and normally remove the view from the window.
We were on the 124th floor.
1. The queue for lifting 40-60 minutes, inspection as at the airport.
2. The elevator is very fast, the ascent to the 124th floor took 1 minute, the ears are laid).
3. The site itself is fenced with glass 3-4 meters high, so all photos of the city will be through glass. People are like in an anthill, in order to take a picture you need to get in line.
4. When leaving the site, you pass through a souvenir shop with inflated prices and will be offered to print your photo against the background of the tower for 250 dirhams, passers-by, then the queue is 30-60 minutes and descent to the bottom. And here's a miracle you pass through such a souvenir shop with acceptable prices and photos for 60 dirhams.
5. It's better to climb the tower at night, because before climbing you can watch a really beautiful show with fountains and projection on the tower.
Conclusions:
The climb to the 124th floor cost $ 48 per person, there was another climb to the 148th floor and it already cost $ 112 per person, the guide convinced me that there was almost no difference except for the queue. Leaving the platform and going down to the bottom, I regretted that I did not overpay because the queues, the crowded elevator and the anthill on the plozhadka greatly overshadow.

It's expensive, there are a lot of people, not very impressed. Visit for show. In Bangkok, it is cheaper and the views are more beautiful and the service is better and the "wow" effect is present. Good luck to everyone.
Quite expensive tickets, and I would not say that the view is very exciting. After visiting similar viewing platforms in Moscow City and Shanghai, I was not very impressed. Of the advantages, an interesting exposition reveals the process of building a building and its internal structure.
A cool place, lots of impressions! However, the altitude feels as if you are flying on an airplane, and not looking out of the window. The height of the Burj Khalifa is equal to the height of the Eiffel Tower plus Ostankino! Of the cons, there are long queues for descent, but it's worth it.

The observation deck is simply mesmerizing!!! We were there once .. But I want to come back ... I really liked everything , the beauty 💞 my family was delighted
This is very cool, impressions for the rest of your life! We went up in the evening VIP to the 148 floor, the views of Dubai are fascinating! I highly recommend it when we were on the observation deck and saw the fountain show!
The place is very popular, queues on weekends are like in a Mausoleum in Soviet times, the organizers use this and raise the price of x2, you need to buy tickets when planning a trip. In elevators, TV panels are built into the walls - a cool idea!
The view is cool, but there is a haze in the summer, the view is not like in the photos in the advertising booklets, but it's still cool to see the sunset.
I was on the very top platform (VIP), offered a glass of champagne and snacks, the view is amazing. Got caught during sunset, caught the evening and night landscapes. Wow is not the right word) High, beautiful and large-scale, it was worth its $ 200 per person.
I don't know how it looks to me, but it's a very popular place. The queues for the ascent are very long, it is very difficult to find an entrance if you do not ask. When climbing to the top, they take pictures of you and ask for more for one photo than for a ticket for the climb. The city is all in a haze, not very good for photos.
I was on the 147-8 floor, maybe there is something better on the next floor, but xs.
A miracle of construction and engineering thought. I was surprised that the power supply of the tower is autonomous from solar energy. It looks beautiful in the photo, but in reality it impresses even more.
The highest floor is impressive, but the middle floor is much better and cheaper. The view is better, more space. You need to visit this place if you are in Dubai, like all the sights in different parts of the world.
The view is not worth the money. If you take a ticket only to the 124-125 floor, there are long queues at the entrance / exit, a crush on the observation deck. It's better to go to sky views. The view there is much more beautiful - on the Burj Khalifa, and it costs 3 times cheaper
We went up to 124-125 floors, there is also a ticket to the 148th floor for about twice as much. The queues are very long, although they move fast. It took about an hour from the beginning of the queue to the entrance to the observation deck. The queue for the descent is about 15 minutes. It seems to me that the view is not worth it, but they put a check mark on the list for visiting Dubai
Everything is basically very good.. but... Huge queues for ascent and descent. You can lose from 1.5 to 2.5 hours. The view is certainly fabulous, but the descent and ascent spoil the impression. It can be compared to the tower in Saigon. There, the descent and ascent are much faster..
A great place with a good viewing platform. Great bird's-eye view of Dubai. But, it is not recommended for visiting by those who are afraid of heights.
We were only on the observation deck on the 124th floor. Yes, the view is impressive, although visibility is not very high due to humidity and dust. But it's worth a visit at least once because it's the tallest building in the world.
It's a pity for the time and money spent, I was in Moscow and climbed the Federation tower, so the view is much steeper, huge queues and we were in August when there were few tourists, so only we lost 50 minutes on the ascent and then another 40 minutes on the descent on the site itself, we were 5 minutes, in general, only negative we we got it from this tower, just for show, it's worth going up there if you don't have enough time and money
There's nothing to say, beauty! If you are interested, choose the time to take a walk and look at the light and dark! Do not limit yourself to the fountain, take a walk around, there are also photo zones, for example, angel wings and just beauty!
We were in the evening, after sunset. The 124 floor somehow does not feel like it. After sunset, when the lighting is on, it probably looks even more epic than during the day. During the day, haze from high humidity covers the horizon. But you still need to visit this place in Dubai, at least "for show" :)
When planning a visit to this place, take into account the queues at the entrance - we stood for about half an hour (with a large crowd, someone may not be allowed to have tickets with an open date), we also had to stand on the descent by the way.
I like to admire this place at night, I like it that way. The fountains are amazing, the Burj Khalifa itself impresses with a scattering of lighting. The exam room didn't impress me.
Almost every day I went to the show of fountains and lasers , and it 's more convenient to look at it from the boat we still climbed to the 148 floor , I will definitely come back here
Expectations of a magnificent view were overshadowed by almost 30 minutes of queuing for the elevator, then an elevator completely packed (like in the subway during rush hour) with people, and then in a crowd of 100 people trying to see the horizon. And going down is the same situation. It's better to go to rest on the 123rd floor. I am very sorry that we did not use this option.
Imho the price and time are not worth it. You can get into bad weather and it won't be very visible. There are a lot of people. If you have a lot of time on vacation and are not in a hurry, then you can visit
The best observation deck in the world!!!
The highest, most beautiful point in the Arab Emirates!!! Everyone who visits the Arab Emirates, be sure to go there!!!
Tickets are on sale for a while, but get ready to stand for half an hour at the entrance and the same amount for the descent.
There are a lot of people upstairs, especially there are a lot of Hindus (everywhere), noisy and arrogant.
One person is standing in line, and then the whole village of 10-15 people is pulled up to him.
In the evening, there were 40 minutes in line for a taxi from the Dubai Mall, taxi drivers say it's not the rush hour yet.
The building itself is cool, but I do not recommend going inside for an excursion, there is a huge queue there and back. Well, upstairs is the usual trade in souvenir mugs, key chains, etc.
The view from the 152 floor is just a fairy tale, afternoon, evening, sunset. You can touch the clouds with your hands:) They are fed sweets and offer alcohol. There is an open area. I advise everyone to definitely visit this place!!!
High, Steep, worth a look. The first time is wildly impressive, the sixth time also has impressions. It's worth a look. There is a beautiful view at the top👏👍
Everything is fine, in general, except for the moment when you have to go down. You can lose up to an hour of time here, due to the significant number of people and the limited number of elevators.
A luxurious place. I was here in August 2023. I liked it even more than on the Burj Khalifa.....beautiful view, there is a whole program below with a story about the construction of a Palm Tree...
It is better to go in the afternoon or in the late afternoon to catch daytime and evening time, in the evening photos are not very good because of the light inside.
The view is beautiful, the floor will not play a strong role, with the current course it is possible to pass 124-125, 148 the only thing will be fewer people.
Fire!Fire queues!!!mega fire!40 minutes there stood in line and 50 minutes back. And there we arrived 10 min) it's a buzz. well, the pleasure is so-so, it's not worth it honestly. It turns out there are mega many Indians, meeega.and they all push their own, there is one and a hoop, there are already 50 of them!we were warned about this and told to be a group, one takes and all pull up. I would look at the tower from below)
A very big queue, well, very much.
It is absolutely not necessary to come on time, we came at 19, there were comrades with us at 21.
There are very long queues at 19, but it's beautiful from above.
It's worth your money or not, it's up to everyone to decide, of course it's a bit expensive, as it seemed to me
