Wandering around the city we decided to stop at the Tokyo Tower. Located in Tokyo, in the district of Minato (Shibakoen district), easily identifiable and accessible on foot and by public transport (the nearest subway station is Kamiyachō). The Tokyo Tower is an orange and white truss steel tower over 330 meters high (a similar fax machine of the French Eiffell Tower), used for telecommunications and as a viewing point for tourists. There are two panoramic terraces, at different heights, accessible by internal lifts. The view is spectacular, you have a 360-degree view of the city of Tokyo, being able to admire large areas of the metropolis. To access both terraces (first and second level) we paid the equivalent of 6000 yen total for two adults paying by credit card. At the exit there is a shop where you can buy souvenirs of all kinds and photos taken by photographers of the Tokyo Tower placed on the panoramic terraces. We chose to buy a photograph made on the second level at a cost of 1500 yen. Suitable for families and couples. Everything clean, tidy and well signposted. Very kind and professional staff who worked in the tower. I recommend it.

Tokyo Tower was the last point of interest I went to on my last day in Japan, capping off a visit that came after the pandemic restrictions were lifted. It held up just as well as it did when I last went. There's not much to say aside from it remained a classic. It was not exactly close to any metro stations but the walk was manageable, the tickets were cheap and unlike Skytree, the queue didn't snake around the entire lobby. If you're looking to do something at sunset, head up the Tower, plug in your curated City Pop playlist and soak it in. Even as new observation decks are opened each year, Tokyo Tower is still one of the prettiest places to view the city from. Also, for goshuin collectors, there is a small shrine that you can get to with the regular ticket and the gift shop at the observation deck sells pre-made goshuin that rotate seasonally. I happily bought both the regular and paper-cut variants that were available.

We arrived here just after 1:00 pm and took some good photos of ourselves with the tower but we felt it was too busy when we went to go up to the main deck. The cost to go up is reasonable at 1200 yen per adult but we had just done the nearby Azabudai Hills Mori JPTower Sky Lobby which was free to enter and offers similar views of the city including an excellent view of the Tokyo Tower itself. The Azabudai Hills Mori JPTower is a 12 minute walk away and their Sky Lobby is on the 33 floor. The Tokyo Tower is iconic of Tokyo and we would be more keen to go up to one of the viewing decks if it wasn't too busy. We did get a stamp near the ticket counter which was a nice memento for our visit here. There are a few metro stations nearby the tower and it is relatively easy to get to.

Absolute top attraction value. The attraction is well planned out with experience intervals at each area. I would recommend taking the Top deck ticket as the space is less crowded compared to the main deck and the view from inside the elevator going up and down is outstanding. Compared to the Skytree this attraction was less crowded and had more interactive areas. Recommend reserving tickets a day in advance as time slots are limited, no need to print out paper tickets.

Opened at the end of 1958 and inspired by the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tower is recognizable among many others with its red and white painting. Two observatories are accessible, one at 145 m and the other at 250 m, reached after using a glass elevator. Access to the main floor is via elevators located in the corner of the base where you can also find several shops. Once there it is a 360° view that awaits you with especially the buildings and adjacent neighborhoods. On a clear day it is possible to see Mount Fuji. Admission is not expensive and we advise you to book your tickets in advance, in order to avoid the queue. The staff is friendly and welcoming, smiling. The windows are cleaned regularly in order to optimize the view and especially remove the fingerprints of delicate visitors. Plan 1 hour visit.

It is certainly much lower (or rather, less high...) than the Skytree (333 meters against 634 meters), but we definitely prefer it: we absolutely recommend the option of climbing not only to 150 meters (it costs very little, but among other things you stay lower than various nearby skyscrapers) but to 250 meters, because the view is far better and a "show" is offered (with a program/explanation also in Italian to download with a QR Code) that simulates, in a "secret library", a dialogue between the two "creators" of the tower; the public is also asked to interact - with a little naivety, moreover quite frequent in certain aspects in Japan - with the staff; there is the opportunity to be photographed and a drink is offered. Beautiful elevators, not fast compared to others, with views outside (appreciated by those who do not suffer from dizziness). We really liked the structure, even if it resembles (too much?) the Eiffel Tower. Not cheap tickets for the highest climb (about 19 euros per person).

Very good place to have a 360° view of the city of Tokyo. We bought the tickets online, but I didn't see any big advantages since the queue to buy at the venue wasn't that big. The Top Deck tour takes you up to 250m high, which is amazing. I recommend coming before sunset to see the day, the sunset and the lights of the buildings lit, giving a different Impression. I recommend.

As someone with a fear of heights, I was hesitant about visiting Tokyo Tower, but I’m so glad I pushed myself to experience it! The staff were incredibly kind and reassuring, which helped ease my nerves. The elevators felt smooth and secure, making the ride up surprisingly comfortable. Once at the observation deck, I was taken aback by how breathtaking the view was—Tokyo stretches endlessly in every direction, and seeing landmarks from above was truly mesmerizing. There are sturdy railings and enclosed areas, so I never felt unsafe. I even built up the courage to step onto the glass floor section for a quick peek! Overall, Tokyo Tower is an unforgettable experience, even for those who are uneasy with heights. The views, the atmosphere, and the sense of accomplishment after facing my fear made it completely worth it!

It has easy access with Kamiyacho station and a great view in the corner when you turn to Tokyo tower Dori st. I recommend visiting here at night and day. There is a theater saloon that most of the time there are interesting traditional performances.

It was a pleasant & rewarding 40 minute walk to Tokyo Tower from our hotel. Ticket purchases would require time slots so be at the lobby in line at least 5-10 minutes before your elevator ride. There seems to be a constant flow of people so be early or at the very least .. on time. Great views to be had from the tower. Highly Recommended!
