Outstanding ! The view from the 124st floor observation deck of the tallest building in the world, the Burk Khalifa, is breath taking to say the least.
Heights make me a little squeamish and to walk out on the glass paneled observation deck, it made my hands and feet sweat...just a little..but oh, so worth it. I can do this ...
You pay 100 dirhams per adult ( @ $26 US dollars) to go to the top of the Burj Khalifa. Tickets are sometimes hard to get, especially the week before or day of. It was recommended that you pick a date and time atleast 30 days in advance and buy your tickets on line. We took everyone's recommendation and did just that.
The ride to the top - 124th floor observation deck - is on a super speed elevator. And super speed it was. Our ears were popping as we sped to the 124th floor lickity split. I dont ever recall being in an elevator that moved that fast, and climbed so many floors.
Once to the top - glorious ! You can see Dubai from all angles - the desert, the sea, the layout of the city, the extraordinary skyscrapers and so much more. Even though it made me nervous, it was so worth it and I would do it again.
Jeff , Taeler and I had a fabulous time on the top of world and then entered the elevator for our lightning speed descent back to earth, ground level and everyday life.
Great experience and I would recommend it to everyone, even those people like me, that are afraid of heights.
