Enjoy each level. Take your time walking the circumstance and enjoy the breathtaking views. Be sure to watch the jumpers as they step off the edge. There’s a tv screen to watch their arrival on the ground. Pretty amazing!

Debra_B, Mar 2026
A great way to see the city from above. We went after we had walked around the city and it was fun to see it from a different view.

Worth the view

Gina_A, Mar 2026
Worth the money. Great experience. Highly Recommend. Spend as much time time as you want on this tour.

Sky Tower

GOLDSTON_G, Mar 2026
Great view of the city. While we didn’t partake, adventures like the sky walk and bungee jumping looked like fun

Well Worth a Visit

michael_e, Mar 2026
Very good viewing platform for Auckland, glass floors are great, you can see the jumpers as they fly passed and the walkers on the outside track. Bar prices were reasonable, only reason for not giving 5* review was the rude bar staff and the tables were not cleaned, had to remove the previous users glasses etc. ourselves.

Great views

Alexandra_A, Mar 2026
Wonderful Views of the city. Easy to access. Though you are behind glass the whole time so photography is challenging. We watches some people jump off the building feet first looked amazing but not for us.

Great views of Auckland Harbour and city.

David_S, Mar 2026
Great views, definitely one of the highlights of our holiday. We went at 10am on a Sunday morning at the end of Feb, so there were no queues etc

Karla_S, Feb 2026
Beautiful views of the city. Go at sunset for best visual experience. Lots of signage so you know what you’re looking at along with interesting information.

Sky Tower Auckland

Joan_M, Feb 2026
We had a beautiful day and coordinated the Sky Tower with the Hop On Hop Off Auckland. The Tower is very well organized and we really enjoyed seeing the city from top. Definitely recommend.

Auckland Heights

Fabulous Views

Douglas_M, Feb 2026
Great views. Quite crowded. Efficient elevators. Nice staff. Best to pick a time when the sky is clear and not foggy.

Views through the clouds

Angela_C, Feb 2026
It was easy to exchange our vouchers for tickets. Our day was full of clouds and raindrops but the views that we saw and photos that we took were still phenomenal. We could see the weather and clouds coming and going which gave us teasing glimpses of Auckland and its harbour. Do this!

On Top off the world

susan4simpson, Feb 2026
If it’s bad weather then you don’t get to see so much. Beware if you’re scared of heights but apart from that great

Ok , nice views

Mhairi_H, Feb 2026
Lovely view , felt very rushed as an event on and couldn’t stop for long at one level . Compared to other activities felt very commercial - had to exit through gift shop

Sky Tower

Susan_W, Feb 2026
Reserve far ahead if want to eat in the restaurant. Great experience to just look from various levels

Great view of Aukland on the weekend!

James_P, Feb 2026
Very easy and enjoyable-options to do skywalk and bungee jump as well! A little pricey at the restaraunt on top...

Very cool!

Raven_B, Feb 2026
Other than it being a little confusing to get to (through the parking lot and press the button to get in,) it was lots of fun! I had a drink, wandered the floors, and watched the boats at the waterfront.

Wow fantastic 😀

Pauline_C, Dec 2025
It was so safe everywhere. My partner is usually scared of heights but he was fine and did not feel at all anxious.

Well worth the visit! Are...

Forrest_W, Nov 2025
Well worth the visit! Are you going to have the opportunity to watch Sky walkers and I was almost tempted to try it myself!

A good introduction to...

Brad_D, Nov 2025
A good introduction to Auckland . Fun and located centrally giving you a view of the entire area. Tower also has adventurous activities like walking outside the building and hanging over the edge with safety harnesses and a 700 foot controlled jump to the bottom

Fantastic Views (multiple levels for views)

Heather_L, Nov 2025
Fantastic Views (multiple levels for views). I’ve visited towers in Melbourne and Sydney on this trip and this one was great (they all had unique views) because it offered several levels to view the city from. Very pleasant staff in fun blazers too!

Gorgeous sunset views

Aaron_F, Nov 2025
Our 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.

Good city experience

Susan_S, Nov 2025
Great views of the city. Also has clear floor sections that can give a little bit of a thrill. Good spot for photos of Auckland.

Buyer Beware: High Cost Reduces Value

Robert_G, Oct 2025
Excursion is overpriced when value received is the point. We enjoyed the vistas and relished the experience, but paying a substantial sum to ride in an elevator for views at high elevation may not be worth the cost. A lower price point would raise the rating. Before recommending this to a friend, cost/value would be the caveat. “Tourist Trap” is an apt description, which is driven home by aggressive marketing of gimmick photos at exorbitant fees.

Memorable

Curt_C, Oct 2025
Beautiful 360 degree view of the city. The location also has a gift shop. It was a bit hard to find the entrance because of all the construction.

A must do in Auckland....

Janet_M, Oct 2025
A must do in Auckland. The views up there are amazing. Great place for coffee, ice cream (NZof course) & a beer or two. Loved the experience👍

Thrilling,great views...

Alfred_S, Oct 2025
Thrilling,great views even on a rainy day.Nice affordable choices in the snack section.Useful choices in the gift shop.

Skytower NZ

Greg_F, Oct 2025
The skyjump and walk are worth the money paid another $80 too jump twice after original cost. The weather plays a very big part in what you are looking and doing, but the views are breathtaking. Not much in food or drink and a bit pricey.

Amazing view!

Kris_T, Oct 2025
This was amazing! We got to see all of Auckland, which was awesome! It was really cool to go at night because we could see all of the lights and the sunset. The elevators were quick and efficient, and the staff were friendly. They also had signs with information on the different locations, which was nice. All in all it was a great experience!
