Obligatory stop on the Tokyo tourist train. Great views from the 350m Tembo deck -- don't see the need to pay for the extra 50m. Don't miss the see through floor windows downstairs!

The base of the tower has a structure similar to a tripod; from a height of about 350 m (1,150 ft) and above, the tower's structure is cylindrical to offer panoramic views of the river and the city.

Best views over Tokyo. Make sure you get the international pass for $10 more and speedy access to the elevators. Get ready for crowds, but lines move fast.

Amazing views. Be sure to be there at sundown. Save a good spot in front of Mount Fuji. I went to the top, but I think it’s enough if you only book the normal price. And check out the official store.

Great view. On April to come by 5-5:30pm, you will be able to see the beautiful sunset. Weekend is full of visitors, better purchase online else you might need to wait an hour just to purchase ticket.
Priscilla YeoApril 18, 2013
Go in the evening during the golden hour and watch the sunset. Then wait for the sky to turn dark and the city ligjts to light up. That way, you get to see 2different sights with one ticket.
Juan DiezMarch 22, 2016
The express pass for foreigners is absolutely worth it. You'll be at the top in less than 15 minutes.

The newest landmark and also the highest building (634m) in Japan since 2010. Located near sumida River. Now this broadcasting and obsevation tower became a tourist attraction #TravellingTokyo

The view is amazing! Get tickets for both observation decks; they are worth the visit. Try to come before sunset to enjoy the scene at night, too.
ZaraFebruary 5, 2015
Queueing system for tickets is complicated, arrive as early as possible. Street entertainers and very nice shopping centre. Go up in time for sunset! Provides great views! Gift shops always packed.

Worth the trip over to Oshiage. Queue was no more than 15 mins. The views are spectacular and give you a real perspective of Tokyo's vastness. Also visit the Foodhall and TV shop in the mall below!
Tabitha JohnsonJanuary 2, 2016
Go on a clear day. Evening views are also amazing. Grab snacks to take back to family and friends downstairs.
Andrea LavazzaFebruary 6, 2014
The ticket cost ( 3000 ¥) to go until the last floor it's absolutely secondary considering the amazing skyline that you can see from here ! Wonderful !
Kenichi ShodaAugust 23, 2012
Beautiful new sky tower in Tokyo! It's 635M tall, and you can go to the view point up to 400M!! I wish I could go there today, but didn't have time!!will go back there for next time again!!
Alexander v. S.May 16, 2018
It is pretty sad that most of the best places for taking photos in the upper deck is taken by silly advertising for Marvel comics. There is only little place for photographers.
Harumi UNovember 13, 2014
Obviously one of the major attractions in Tokyo with all TV stations character goods being sold in addition to other shops. Nice observatory but buildings around are all short buildings so be aware
Melissa DagdaganDecember 29, 2016
Get here before closing so that you can go up the tower. They stop allowing folks up there before the tower actually closes.
VivianMay 30, 2019
For a great view of the Tokyo Skytree, the viewing deck at Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center is nearby and free!
Amanda GutierrezApril 1, 2018
Everything! The view is amazing!!! The restaurant has great food and service!
Melissa DuffyApril 17, 2016
Awesome view! Go on a clear night. Pay an extra ¥1000 to go to the higher observation deck. It's much less crowded
Brian BimschlegerNovember 4, 2017
The building is immaculate and the stores and shopping inside are great. The ¥4000/person price tag to go up the the Observatory was a little insane, so we passed.
Sam WongJanuary 18, 2015
¥2060 to go to Tembo Deck at 350m. You need another ¥1030 to go up to 450m. A little expensive but still worth it.
Rafael Cuestas RolzMarch 20, 2019
Dont pay for the fast lane ticket is a scam, all the lines go up at the same time you just pay $10 more, going to the 350 mts station is more than enough you can see the city of Tokyo from there
angeline chandraJanuary 5, 2016
To view tokyo from above. Awesome. And everything is very organised. While here, must visit the aquarium.
Elle MoeeMay 7, 2015
Amazing landmark! Many options of Japanese cookies shop and clothing store. Should try the green tea cone ice cream near to the food hall.
Yarn LamMay 16, 2018
Do remember to check out the board "Today's Views" if you don't want to be wasting your money stuck with a view of just Asakusa. The furthest the Skytree can see is Mt Fuji.
Ariane RinehartAugust 24, 2016
A great tourist destination. Amazing view of Tokyo. Very clean and open walking/viewing areas.
MohammadJuly 22, 2015
Pay extra to get to upper floors . the window views are better. And check out moomin restauran 5 minutes walk from the tower.
Chris BJuly 12, 2013
Check out the kaiten sushi on the 6th floor. Best sushi I've had in ages and the staff are totally entertaining...
Hampus AnderssonNovember 27, 2014
Be sure to go here on a clear day, even if you will have to queue. You won't regret going to the top.
Tom Van GoylenMarch 17, 2015
Try to go here on a clear day since a lot of the city will be shrouded in clouds on misty or rainy days. The 450th floor isn't really worth the additional fee.
CarolMay 19, 2016
Bring your passport so you can purchase the express ticket. More expensive but you skip the long lines. There's no express pass on the way down.
LadyJupiter.comJune 28, 2017
Buy tickets for both decks, and expect to spend a few hours up there. The views are stunning, especially at sunset 🌆 👍🏻
Alexey KuryavskyDecember 17, 2018
Amazing view on Tokyo city. Better to go to the main line, not to pay twice for the foreigners. Buy online and save some time inside
William KanApril 12, 2015
This is an amazingly beautiful tower and it gave a mysterious kind of feel the night I came when it was raining. You need to pay to go to the observation deck.
Hethler De ChavezJuly 22, 2016
Been here 5+ times
You'll appreciate the beauty of the Tokyo Skytree Tower from afar. Ah... Those lights the illuminates... perfect!
Dewi IrmaOctober 2, 2014
Explore the tallest tower building in the world, the magnificent #TokyoSkyTree. Beautiful view from up high (634 meter). #latepost
Tim DengJuly 31, 2015
Beautiful view from the top of the Skytree! You can see 360 degrees. The elevator goes so fast and high that your ears will pop.
Atef ChaudhuryFebruary 17, 2017
Get there a bit before sunset, then grab a small treat from the cafe and take in the view.
SV Ah MaMay 31, 2018
Big tower made of steel and glass. Views over Tokyo are endless (but pretty much the same as from the restaurants in the building next door)
Francesco Paolo FumarolaJune 17, 2023
I came without reservation on a Friday before opening: little queue but ticket to top time very quick and efficient flow management
Jai OthmanJune 16, 2015
Fast lane ticket avail for foreigners.. U may pay a lil bit more but u'll save a lot of time.. No need to Q up.
Peter SmithDecember 30, 2015
An extraordinary view you will only see once. Some say it is a tourist trap, but the view is incredible. Get there first thing.
Andrew BC 翁 ÔNGJuly 18, 2013
Beautiful sky tower in Tokyo. Its one of the tallest tower in the world. Superb structure and amazing landmark
Sebastiaan SchoonebeekJuly 2, 2014
Amazing view over Tokyo. No need to go up to the 450 meter deck. The view is the same. The view on the walkway ia even worse. So save the 1000 yen and spend it on coffee.
Aleksandar NakinovMay 2, 2015
Such a great place to visit. It's one of Tokyo's must visit places!
JanelleOctober 8, 2014
Look up when riding elevator to floor 450 if you are in the back and look ahead if you are in front. Worth the view
Pascha BhattiApril 30, 2018
Disappointed. Wen tip to the lower part of the top: but the best part of the view is reserved for a Café where you need to order in order to enjoy the view...
