When the weather is good, you can see every corner of Tokyo. You must buy the ticket early, especially if you want to see the scenery both during the day and at night.

This is just the best spot if you want to see the 360 view of the city. Its just spectacular. Just be warned tho for people who have fear of heights or getting static during winter, you will definitely jolt like we did a hundred times 🤭

We had an incredible time at Shibuya Sky! The access was smooth and easy, with clear instructions throughout. The best part is that there’s no time limit for how long you can stay, so you can fully relax and enjoy the stunning 360-degree views of Tokyo.

This whole day trip was just simply amazing. Our tour guide for the day, Ben, was the best tour guide one could ever ask for. Not only was he really nice, funny and friendly, the instructions that he provided were really organsied and clear. He also took time to share with us Japanese culture, places of interests and even taught us to say some Japanese words that will be useful for our stay in Japan. We were also very lucky to see Mt Fuji that day, and had lots of fun at the places we were brought to. Also, would like to give a big shoutout to the travel agency for their amazing customer service. I forgot all about my booking and missed the tour but they reached out and helped me re-arrange to do the tour on another day. Overall, had the most wonderful experience and I would recommend anyone to go for this tour! 💯

The experience was fantastic! The lines were quick and very orderly. I had no issues with my tickets, purchase was easy. Shibuya sky was an amazing experience! go at sunset!! tickets sell out fast, so be sure to check exactly 31 days before you plan to go, so you can get tickets for golden hour. I would highly recommend Klook for booking experiences. We used Klook for multiple experiences on our trip to Japan and it was so easy to navigate and use.
