What other travelers are saying about Tokyo Skytree
We decided to head out to visit the Tokyo Skytree to compare the views with those from Tokyo Tower, which we had visited earlier in our trip. After a quick and easy train ride, we arrived and had dinner in the surrounding complex before heading toward the ticket counter. Unfortunately, we arrived just a few minutes before closing and missed the last admission time, so we weren’t able to go up the tower that night.
Even though we didn’t make it to the top, the visit still turned out to be worthwhile. The tower itself is massive and really impressive, especially at night. It was fully illuminated and the colours changed periodically, cycling through purples, blues, reds, and a stunning rainbow display at one point. I was able to get several photos from different angles on our walk up to the tower, and it still felt like a great experience even without going to the top.
The whole area around the base is clean, modern, and easy to navigate, with shopping, restaurants, and a very open plaza for photos. I’ll definitely come back earlier next time to enjoy the observation deck and views over Tokyo, but even just seeing the tower up close was worth the visit.
Tokyo Skytree is the tallest tower in the world and a must-visit in Tokyo.
There was a bit of a queue to get in, but the staff were friendly and helpful, so the wait wasn’t too bad.
The view from the top is amazing — you can see all over Tokyo, and if the weather is clear, you might even spot Mount Fuji. It’s really impressive!
The location is very convenient, with many train lines nearby, so it’s easy to get there from anywhere in the city.
On the lower floors, there are lots of shops and restaurants. It’s quite busy, but fun for shopping and trying local food.
Overall, it was a great experience. I’d recommend going early to avoid the crowds. Would love to visit again!
A fantastic journey. The line is very long. once you clear the elevators you will meet a breath taking view. Definitely worth paying extra to make it to the very top. I personally enjoyed the sky tree restaurant. Eating while taking the breath taking view of Tokyo is a must for any tourist. It is very child friendly. When I visited, Toy Story was the theme. It felt like I was in Disneyland California. No rides, but there were mascots for the kids to take pictures with.
Visiting Tokyo Skytree was an unreal experience! The sheer height is jaw-dropping, and the panoramic views over the city are absolutely breathtaking! Tokyo stretching endlessly in every direction. Seeing iconic landmarks from above, with Mount Fuji in the distance on a clear day, felt surreal and unforgettable. The observation decks are well designed, and the whole experience is smooth and well organized. Whether by day or night, it’s a must-do in Tokyo, truly a once-in-a-lifetime view of the city. The ribbon wishes were a very special touch.
Tokyo Skytree – A View Like No Other!
Visiting Tokyo Skytree was an unforgettable experience. The panoramic view from the top is simply breathtaking — an endless sea of city lights stretching in every direction, showcasing the true scale and beauty of Tokyo. From towering skyscrapers to the distant silhouette of Mount Fuji (on a clear day!), every angle offers a postcard-perfect moment. It’s a must-see for anyone visiting the city — day or night, the view is absolutely magical.
