Wonderful wide view from a very high terrace! You can stay all the time you wish, probably it's better at sunset but also during the day is amazing

Such a great experience. We really enjoyed our time there and could have stayed even longer. I loved that they had a bar with some fun music playing. Just made the experience feel very inviting. The views were great!

"Amazing view"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 01, 2025 NEW
It was the most amazing view I have ever seen worth every penny. The only downfall was the drink order. If you’re gonna get a mimosa and they run out of champagne, they will not open a new bottle to make it the correct way. We paid $23 for a very weak mimosa

"Morning visit no queues"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed October 01, 2025 NEW
Had a great experience here. A lot of the reviews talk about crowds so we decided to go on a sunday morning at 930am. No queue, lots of space, plenty of photo opportunities. Lots of detail put into this experience, the elevator up and especially down were great. Talk to a few members of staff. They were all friendly and happy to chat. Would recommend visiting.

"The Edge - great skyscraper 📐"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed September 18, 2025 NEW
Not as wow as other skyscrapers but still a brilliant experience - was a little disappointed with how small the clear glass area was and the view below was just rooftops. I think it would have been better if you was above a busy road! Looks amazing when you see it from Top of the Rock & Summit One
