Iconic Auckland Experience - Absolutely Unforgettable

5.00The Sky Tower is an absolute must-do when visiting Auckland! At 328 meters tall, it's the Southern Hemisphere's tallest structure and offers the most spectacular 360-degree views of the city, harbors, and surrounding islands. The observation decks are phenomenal - on a clear day, you can see for up to 80 kilometers in every direction. Watching the sunset from up here was truly magical, with the city lights gradually twinkling to life below. The glass floor panels add an extra thrill if you're brave enough to stand on them and look straight down! We also dined at the Orbit restaurant, which rotates 360 degrees while you eat. The food was excellent, and having an ever-changing view throughout the meal made it such a unique experience. Even if you don't dine there, the café on the observation level is great for a coffee while you take in the views. For the adventurous, they offer the SkyWalk and SkyJump - we watched people doing these and they looked absolutely exhilarating! The staff throughout were friendly and knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts about Auckland's geography and landmarks. Whether it's your first time in Auckland or you're a local showing visitors around, the Sky Tower never disappoints. It's the perfect way to get your bearings and appreciate just how beautiful this harbor city truly is. Well worth the visit!

Misleading charges.

1.00For the convenience of the journey.,When I arrived in NEW ZEALAND,I made an online reservation tickets for the Sky Tower.What I never expected was that his charging method turned out to be USD dollars. Because in New Zealand, the price it shows is also this symbol$. All this was discovered when I received the bill. This is simply disappointing to me. This is a very bad trip,
Great view from the top of the tower.

5.00This was very organized by the staff at the tower. It was amazing to see the town at this height. I recommend this place. We even got to see some daring individuals doing the jump from the top on a managed drop on cables.
Gorgeous sunset views

5.00Our hotel was a block from the Sky Tower, but we didn't go up until our last night. It is a well organized operation. We purposefully waited until the end of the day so we could watch the sunset. I wish they would have let us stay a little longer to see the last moments of light but understand their timeline they have to stick to. We found the Cafe level offered the best view.
Not the wow factor I was expecting

3.00The views are impressive, but the experience less so. The food and drink offerings up top are lacking, inappropriate music that spoiled the experience, too many people, and a long wait for the lift. Not the wow factor I was expecting.
Good city experience

5.00Excellent experience in every way. Staff were all extremely polite, cheerful and helpful. Thoroughly enjoyed a very good cappuccino watching candidates bungee jumping and walking around the outer rim !
Beautiful view

5.00Love the view and service. You feel you are somewhere on the top and the staff was friendly and customer oriented. The process was easy and very organised to enter and start the tour.
A Good Way for Visitors to Orient themselves

4.00This is always a fun excursion for a short visit. It is nice to be able to get an overhead view of the city (and, as such, I recommend it for a visit on your first or second day in the city). Be sure to visit on a day when it's at least moderately clear and make sure you stay and watch someone take a sky jump off the deck (but don't call it a bungee jump unless you want to annoy the locals!)
