Burj Khalifa: Which Floor Ticket is Worth It?

Ahmed Al Rashid June 09, 2026

I still remember my visit to the Burj Khalifa on January 10th, and how amazed I was by the breathtaking views of the city. You'll want to plan your visit according to the time of day and your budget. And, honestly, it's not just about the views — the experience is what makes it worth it.

Choosing the Right Floor

So, which floor ticket is worth it? The Burj Khalifa has two observation decks: At the Top on the 124th floor, and At the Top Sky on the 148th floor. I'd recommend the 148th floor for a more exclusive experience, but it comes with a price tag of AED 500 per person. The 124th floor, on the other hand, costs AED 125 per person and still offers stunning views.

Planning Your Visit

Look, the best time to visit the Burj Khalifa is early morning or late evening when the sun is not too harsh. You can take the metro to the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station and then walk to the tower. But, be prepared for security checks and long lines, especially on weekends.

Tips and Tricks

Here's the thing: if you're short on time, consider booking a guided tour that includes the Burj Khalifa and other Dubai attractions, like the Full-Day Abu Dhabi City Tour from Dubai with Pickup. Our driver, Ali, was very knowledgeable and helped us make the most of our day. And, if you have time, grab a bite to eat at the Armani/Prive restaurant on the ground floor - I ordered the chicken shawarma and it was delicious.

Other Attractions

If you're traveling with kids, you might want to consider visiting the Yas Island waterpark or the Motiongate Dubai theme park. Both are a lot of fun and offer a great way to beat the heat.

Honestly, booking a tour through Roamigo Trips can save you a lot of hassle and time. They offer a range of tours and activities, including Burj Khalifa visits, and their team is very helpful.
