The Basics
A trip to Calgary wouldn’t be complete without seeing it from above, and the Calgary Tower is one of the best places to do just that. Visitors can peer through binoculars, walk on a glass floor rimming the observation deck, and watch a short film on the construction of the tower in the Theatre Room. For an extra fee, a self-guided multimedia tour is packed with content about Calgary’s history and landmarks. The Sky 360 restaurant makes one complete revolution every 45 minutes during lunch and one every hour in the evening, giving diners a panoramic view of Calgary and beyond.
