Burj Khalifa

At 828 metres, the Burj Khalifa is not just the tallest building on Earth — it is the reference point for everything else in Dubai. The At The Top observation decks on levels 124–125 and the SKY lounge on 148 look down on the dancing fountains, the Dubai Mall and the whole sweep of the city to the Gulf.
Tickets are timed and the best sunset slots sell out days ahead — we book them before you arrive and time your chauffeur around them. Pair it with the fountain show at dusk and an evening drive through Downtown; we sequence it so you never queue twice.
Plan your visit

- Opening hours: Usually from about 9am until late evening, with early sunrise slots on some days. Times change with the season
- Tickets: At The Top (levels 124–125) starts from around AED 170 for an adult at off-peak times; sunset “prime” slots cost more. SKY (level 148) and the lounge on levels 152–154 are premium options. Under-3s go free
- Time needed: About 1–1.5 hours, plus queue time at busy hours
- Best time: Sunset for the most dramatic views (book early), a weekday morning for value, or after 8pm for the city lights

Tips from our team
- Arrive about 30 minutes before your time slot; entry is strictly timed.
- Sunset slots sell out first, especially from November to March.
- Pair it with the Dubai Fountain shows outside the mall in the evening.
- Wear comfortable shoes: the walk through the mall to the entrance is long.
Getting there with Arabian Ring
Your chauffeur drops you at the closest Dubai Mall entrance and waits while you are up the tower, so there is no taxi queue or parking search afterwards. It fits easily into a half-day Dubai city tour with the Dubai Frame and Jumeirah, or into an evening drive along Sheikh Zayed Road.
Frequently asked questions
Is the sunset (prime) ticket worth it?
If you want the golden-hour views, yes. It costs more than an off-peak ticket and sells out early, so book a few days ahead.
Can we visit from Abu Dhabi in one day?
Yes. Downtown Dubai is about 1 hour 20 minutes from Abu Dhabi by car, so it works well as a private day trip.
Prices and opening hours were checked in October 2026 and can change. We confirm the latest times and ticket prices when you book.
