Great attraction to add to Atlanta. Definitely do the VIP, it's worth it for a date, anniversary or birthday. You get free drinks and get to ride twice as long as the regular ride.

Enjoy the view it had good view of Centennial Park I went during the day would love to go again during the night to check it out

The view is amazing. Get there to ride on the exact time a little before the sunset, so you can see the sky that amazing color. So cool and so romantic.

It's a great experience. The ride is smooth & the view is great. Go at night for a cooler view of the skyline

Great views and a fun ride for kids and adults. The staff is exceptionally nice and generous especially Daby and Daniel. I highly recommend going to this attraction.
Nicole VarnerJuly 16, 2013
A nice view of the city. I would like to go again at night as I think it makes a good night cap for a date night.
Alicia MejiaFebruary 20, 2017
Good price for this ride and view. I would definitely go again for a view during the day. 😊

Great experience! Good views of the city, reasonable price, no line/no wait, and decent amount of time spent on Ferris Wheel.

Don't do it for the view, for the thrill or for the fun of it cause it's not any of those things. Do it if you're a couple and want some alone time or for the air conditioned cars.
RachelOctober 17, 2013
Enter the back alley of the tabernacle & $14 will get you 4 revolutions while glancing at one of the employees with a bad attitude, chin resting on her elbow glaring with every turn. Do it anyway
Anjali MirchandaniJuly 12, 2018
Get a 360 degree view of the city from the climate controlled gondolas, especially at night the view is spectacular and the ride is not scary at all!
Serhii LutskoMay 15, 2017
Nice overlook. Line was reasonable and we had 7-8 rides in a row (I thought we would have only one-three)
Benjamin SzwedaMay 23, 2015
Comfortable iconic experience. Narrated audio clip plays during ride. Long lines - they have a confusing and odd boarding process. Buying tickets online saves 0 time in line.

Great date night activity. Less lines in middle of the week. Usually has a Groupon. Fun for dates and visitors.
Thomas RobinsonJuly 20, 2013
Staff friendly... went around about 6 times on our trip... the A/C in the gondola cycled on and off, so sometimes it was a bit stuffy...
Anna Paige GrahamApril 6, 2016
The view is great. Get the VIP it's cool because it has a glass bottom and you are on for longer. However it's 50 dollars a person:-)
Timothy BrittAugust 3, 2013
Great experience. With military discount it's just over 12 bucks and worth it! If you're a native Atlantan like me you need to do this! Rise up!!!
Chandler SmithJuly 29, 2013
Friendly staff, comfortable ride, and great views! Lines were very reasonable. A must-see attraction: even for Atlanta natives.
Jenna BrownSeptember 30, 2013
This ride is about $14 but our ride lasted for over thirty minutes! Option to purchase picture at the end. Thoroughly enjoyed the night views atop atlanta.

First time I got on a Ferris wheel that kept stopping after everyone got on, so we got off early and the guy says “That’s a good idea. The operator doesn’t know what he’s doing”. Groupon used

Atlanta’s newest attraction, SkyView Atlanta Ferris wheel, offers a great view of the city in a memorable 15-minute ride.
Greg BarronNovember 23, 2013
I suggest everyone ride SkyView Atlanta. Old and young. If you don't want to ride, there r benches to sit and watch... PS.. alcoholic beverages available!!!
Kathy RandolphAugust 7, 2013
Go on a weeknight. Avoid weekends. Lines waaaay too long after dusk. Oh and take snacks w u as u will wait 40 mins or more. Porta potty behind the ferris wheel.
SolomonAugust 31, 2014
You get a pretty good view of the city, and the rides are very comfortable — each cabin is air conditioned!
Keith BrownDecember 28, 2013
Definitely a must do when in downtown Atlanta. Great addition to the Centennial Park area.
Percy HolmesJuly 25, 2017
Treat yourself to this, you won't regret it. Excellent view of the park and city sky.
ElizabethAugust 21, 2015
Well we didn't know they opened late so we showed up a bit early, but the rode provides great views of the park.
Victor ScottAugust 1, 2015
What a tremendous view!! Enjoyed seeing the city of Atlanta and the sights from the Skyview.
Sarah WJuly 6, 2018
Really fun! Expensive, but it was worth it!
vJuly 20, 2013
Awesome view!! The private concert by Usher at Centennial help too :)
Sandra A.September 27, 2013
Beautiful view. A must do when visiting Atlanta!
Alfred KateebMay 26, 2017
Love the view from the top .... shows the beauty of Atlanta city ... best time at night
Jennifer BJune 25, 2015
Great views. Wheelchair accessible. Friendly, helpful employees. Climate controlled cabins.
Chris LewisJuly 20, 2013
Go early to avoid lines! Also easy parking 2 blocks away on the corner of Luckie & Cone.
Michelle MurrellApril 3, 2017
We've visited here several times.Always nice!
Grant WillsieAugust 25, 2013
For how long the line was, it moved at a reasonable pace. You get four revolutions on the wheel. The cabins were much nicer than I expected.
Ryen WilsonSeptember 6, 2013
Amazing! Website says four revolutions, or 15 but might last a bit longer. It was great!
Arlene MurphyMay 21, 2015
Las Vegas style attraction. Pay through the nose. Only thing I like is the enclosed gondolas
Keith B.November 30, 2013
Excellent! Awesome views of the city!
Ceasar AllenJuly 19, 2013
Ride late evening, great shots
Damian DensonSeptember 24, 2015
Nice and romantic. Air conditioned and relatively soundproof.
Stephanie LewisMay 3, 2014
Awesome view of the city at night! Very smooth sturdy ride.
Matt SJuly 17, 2013
Waited in line to get to the ticket booth to find out the booth was the cash only booth. Then had to go back of the card line. They really need to put up some signs to differentiate.
Alan PriceOctober 23, 2013
Do this...You won't be sorry you did. You get some pretty neat views.
Ken GrossOctober 13, 2015
Always a neat experience. Bring someone you trust and it's a great time.
Britt AntonyOctober 13, 2014
A one of a kind view of the city!
Chris KuzanMarch 21, 2023
