What To Expect
To access the Melbourne Skydeck, hang on as the fastest elevator trip in the Southern Hemisphere whisks you up 88 floors in less than 40 seconds. Once you enter the Skydeck, take in breathtaking, 360-degree views of Melbourne through floor-to-ceiling windows. Spot your favorite Melbourne attractions through one of many free viewfinders.
Step outside onto the open-air terrace, where you can feel the rush of wind and make use of high-powered binoculars. From a height of nearly 975 feet (300 meters), you can see the blue expanse of Port Phillip Bay and, on a clear day, as far as the Dandenong Ranges.
For the ultimate Melbourne Skydeck experience, upgrade your ticket to include ‘The Edge.’ Step inside a secure glass cube that slowly projects 10 feet (3 meters) straight out from the side of the building, and feel the thrilling sensation of being suspended in the air.

This is a must Do when you re in Melbourne, the View over Melbourne is breathtaking!
It starts with the fantastic video were you put special glasses on and you fly thru Melbourne awesome realistic made and and top of the skydeck this wonderful view over the city….and the EDGE of course a thrill for everybody who is afraid of heights….standing on a glass balcony nothing beyond only the 290meter beyond you. This tour is a must !

Worth the money :) I went with my family. My mum enjoyed the VR experience, EDGE and VR plank. A must visit place in Melbourne
A new experience, but not sure it's worth it
Xavier_W, Apr 2024
The experience was thrilling, but only lasted 5 mins in a tiny room and we couldn't take our own photos.
Awesome
PANKAJ_G, Apr 2024
It was a great experience. Experienced first time a whole room stretches out of the building and when it turns transparent.....ohh God it's wonderful
Recomended place to Visit..
Ishwardeep_S, Apr 2024
It was Great experience and Handy to Book Via Viator.
Purchase Cocktail package and got there just before 3pm.
3pm to 6 pm was happy hour. Whole place is licenced can buy drinks from Bar 88 and roam around theplace while enjoying beers.
Highly recomended place to visit..
Your service sucks, not recommending or using it anymore
Ankit_D, Apr 2024
I didn't used the service and I should be getting a refund......This is insane that I have not used my service and requested for a cancellation with refund with a reasonable time and at the last I didnt enjoyed the experience what I paid for!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely view
Susan_V, Mar 2024
Wonderful view. Great way to see Melbourne. More seating would have been appreciated… it was fairly busy and hard to see the view at times.
Make sure you visit the website before Booking
Tora_T, Mar 2024
This is the second time that I have booked with this company and the Attraction is not in the same city. I gave a 2 start because I take accountability for not visiting the website before I booked the event. I was looking for Attraction in Melborne, Florida and Viator offered the Skydeck, only to find out on the day of the event that the skydeck was located in Melborne, Australia. This is awful.
Skydeck experience

Spectacular view
Lisa_M, Mar 2024
It was an amazing experience to be that high and to see the city. All the staff were welcoming. Beautiful City.
Sky Deck-Great experience.
Reece_P, Mar 2024
Views were incredible! Had lunch at Bar 88 - Aussie pie and a beer special was reasonably priced and very good. Viator voucher made entry very easy and saved us money.
Great views of the city
Neil_I, Mar 2024
Great views of the city. Viator voucher exchanged for entry ticket, then straight to the top! The outside section is a must.
Sky deck Great a must see
Claire_N, Feb 2024
It’s great to see everything from above as it gives an appreciation of
how big Melbourne is, once been also makes navigating landmark’s easy,
No fun, nothing memorable
Alex_G, Feb 2024
Package of Edge was described as fun and it was not. The attraction was very primitive. We got more fun and better view climbing 90 stairs up in Veteran Museum.
Waste of money.
Breathtaking!
Ngatokorua_G, Jan 2024
Just enduring my fear of heights. I just loved it. It’s so beautiful. The experience was amazing. The staff were so firm and very nice to everyone. They made sure that we are safe and comfortable. Well done!
Beautiful views!
Shevaun_N, Jan 2024
Beautiful views! Be sure to add the Edge experience. Very fun and the digital photo is included in the price. Nice observation area with bar to wait.
Great experience
David_C, Jan 2024
I really enjoyed the VR experiences i.e. the zipline and the helicopter 🙂. They were really emersive.
Okay
Melba_S, Jan 2024
Not a big deal to me to see over the city. I enjoyed seeing all the big buildings and doing the deck observation was pretty cool.
Bus ride is the main course.
Hyun_Y, Dec 2023
Skip this tour. Too much time on the bus. Not worth it unless you like being stuck inside the bus all day!
Views from the 88th floor
Linda_S, Dec 2023
Great to see Melbourne from the 88th floor , had a cocktail with my family , not expensive for the whole family to attend
