What other travelers are saying about Tokyo Skytree
Impressive place and a must visit in Tokio! Reserve your tickets in advance and arrive around 20 to 30 mins before your booked time since it can take some time to get up. We booked the time to catch the sunset and it was the best decision! Since we booked the combo we could enjoy a better view from the second deck (the one at the highest point) and with slightly less people.
Take your time to enjoy all the experience and don’t be that messy tourist planting itself in one spot and watching at its phone. Booking at sunset times gives you an amazing sky and the night view! The souvenir shop is also quite nice.
Overall a great experience and you can let some staff take you pictures at designated spots for free. So overall a great experience! Just lots of people.
This is a great tourist place to visit day or night. It's busy and difficult to find a spot to sit and relax but its wonderful to see the city. I image at night would be even better. The gift shop was wonderful with lovely items and the staff were amazing. The lift going up and down is an experience and if your like adventure you can stand on the glass floor.
It was a wonderful visit. The view was breathtaking. I picked up two tiers for the visit: one for the "lower level" and the other is their "higher level". Trying to get tickets and understand the procedure was easy since staff was more than willing to help and assist you. For your ticket you get to pick your time slot to go up when at the kiosk getting your tickets. After that you wait for your time slot to be available and then they will let you in to ride the elevator. When in the elevator you will notice your ears will pop with the altitude change. Once at the lower tier of the venue you have a good 360 view of Tokyo. Don't forget to go downstairs to check out the glass floor exhibition they have. If you bought into their higher level you get to go the elevator again and see a higher view, about 100m taller. To be honest though it looks the same for me. The only reason I bought into it was because they had a My Hero Academia collaboration going on. Overall I do recommend checking this place out. I did it in the morning and forgot to check it out at night, but I heard it's more interesting with the city lights at night.
Tokyo Skytree is massive, and the view from the top is absolutely breathtaking! Looking out, you get a real sense of how vast and crowded Tokyo is—it’s no wonder it’s the most populated city in the world. The city stretches endlessly, with houses and buildings constructed in such a maze-like pattern. It’s incredible to see how tightly packed everything is, yet so beautifully organized. The observation decks offer a whole new perspective of the city, and it’s fascinating to see the sheer scale of it all. Definitely a must-see if you’re in Tokyo!
Visiting Tokyo Skytree was an unforgettable experience! 🗼✨ I chose to go just before sunset, and it was the perfect decision. Watching Tokyo from above as the city transformed—from daylight to golden sunset and then into a sea of sparkling lights—was absolutely breathtaking. 🌇🌃 The panoramic views are stunning, and the atmosphere at that time felt magical. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a Tokyo regular, I highly recommend timing your visit around sunset for the best experience. A must-see landmark!
