Great city view

Sandi_H, Mar 2023

Great views of the city and harbor! Just be aware that the entrance is inside the Sky City building because there’s no sign on the outside of the tower itself.

Great views

Helen_G, Mar 2023

Sky Tower

Laurie_L, Mar 2023

The views of the city, Harbor and surrounding islands are fantastic! Definitely worth a visit when in Auckland.

DALE_R, Mar 2023

Walk directly from cruise ship a plus. Elevator ride up was fantastic with windows. View from the top was breathtaking. Loved Auckland Sky Tower

Great view

Paul_W, Mar 2023

A Must do on a clear sunny day. A little pricey though. It's cheaper to pay at the kiosk than viator.

Awesome view and great ice cream .

Janet_S, Feb 2023

Awesome views well organised, plenty of time to look around, opportunity to watch people jumping off the tower and great ice cream in the cafe

Great viewing attraction!

Thomas_B, Feb 2023

Views of the city from 51 stories up, pics. Enjoyable & well worth the $. Kind & helpful staff. Nice attraction for those visiting- glad to find a coin souvenir as well. Thank you!

Top of the City to You!

Spectacular view of the entire Aukland area. Through Viator at a substantial savings over buying tickets at the Tower.

It's nice to get the panoramic experience! Can't get it any other way. All aides were very nice and polite.

Auckland Sky Tower 2022

Paul_H, Dec 2022

The spectacular views, watching other people do the Sky Jump and virtual Sky Ride, and the stories posted on walls about many aspects of Auckland life and history.

Good introduction to Auckland

Roslyn_J, Oct 2022

Great way to get an idea of the layout of the city. Also, the Sky Cafe has very good food. The only difficulty was figuring out how to get to the entrance as there are no signs stating that you have to go into the Sky City hotel.

Beautiful

Lisiate_M, May 2022

Amazing time!!! Loved it!!! The staffs were very nice and very helpful. The view was too good! Had good time in the cafe area, food was delicious can't complain.

Don't miss it.

Michael_S, Feb 2020

Just do it. Go to the top have lunch or dinner if you can. For us it was certainly a highlight of our brief visit to Aukland.

Worth it

Kelly_W, Feb 2020

We went later in the evening so no need for skip the line. The tower is cool and worth the trip - recommend going day and night with the ticket if you can.

Sky tower

Zeljka_V, Jan 2020

View was great. Glad we did it, but I wouldn’t say it is a must. Make sure you pick a clear day. Can be very stuffy if it is crowded

Sky tower in Auckland

It was fun I can say I’ve seen it it’s not as tall as the CN Tower which I’ve been to so height wise it wasn’t that impressive but it’s still fun to see
