It's the perfect place to start your Sydney adventure. With views stretching out as far as the eye can see in all directions, there's no better place to find your bearings. Sydney Tower Eye is a true year-round visitor attraction. Gazing out across the beautiful harbour city you'll be captivated by the views of stunning Sydney in all its glory. Crystal clear skies in winter make for the best viewing distances of the year, while in Spring the explosion of Jackaranda Trees covers the Eastern Suburbs in vibrant splashes of purple. Sydney is at its best in Summer, and guests soak up the city's laid back Summer vibe from the cool air-conditioned deck as the streets swelter below. Autumn brings gorgeous orangey glows and the best sunsets of the year - the perfect time to head out on a SKYWALK for 'that' picture of the city and harbour in the background. « less

The only "problem" we had here is finding the street entrance! The 3D film was fun and well-done. Up on the viewing deck we got a really nice 360 degree look at Sydney and suburbs. It was a week day, so it was quiet and we just enjoyed a leisurely time just taking in the view and trying to recognise... More

Sydney Tower being a tourist icon is mostly watched at the beginning of the trip . But I would say it is always best to go to Sydney Tower as the last item of your itinerary so that you can identify and point out all the other places which you have watched. It is a good experience . Tips -... More

We'd planned on doing the Harbor Bridge Climb but the extremely high cost of the climb had us hesitating ($240 per person). We opted instead to do the SkyWalk. It cost $49 per person IF you bought online. The only problem was that the online system couldn't process our American credit cards. We called the Tower and they apologized profusely... More

Part of large Westfield Shopping Centre....my Wife was keen to go! Firstly equipped with cardboard glasses you enter the 3-D Cinema for a brief film....really good but was not expecting the... More

the best views of the Sydney area and a must for all tourists (and locals, occasionally!). Unfortunately it is getting more and more expensive and the queues to get in can be ridiculous. More

This tower has some great views but it's not for the faint hearted or those that are frightened of heights, if you are and think of yourself as a daredevil, then go right ahead and do it. You won't be disappointed and lie many people say, you only live once and do the most you can with it, the views... More

The 4 D Movie all about the views of Sydney was excellent. The view was 360 degree with free binoculars to view the sights. Plenty of room to move around. The glass was angled so you could see straight down but the firm base gave a safe feeling. A great birds eye view of Sydney. More

This is like the other 'eyes in the sky' like Auckland and Brisbanes Q1 but nevertheless, still the best place for that total birds eye view unless you manage a small plane / helicopter flight More
