Shibuya Sky

This is truly one of Tokyo’s most unforgettable attractions. It’s best to purchase your tickets one to two weeks ahead of time, as slots fill up quickly. After entering, you’re free to stay as long as you wish, so a noon entry still allows you to enjoy the beautiful sunset. Shibuya Sky offers breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views of the city, making it an incredible spot for both daytime sightseeing and nighttime city lights. You can clearly see famous landmarks, busy crossings, and even Mount Fuji on a clear day. The open-air rooftop deck creates a unique and immersive experience that feels both peaceful and exhilarating at the same time. It’s also a perfect place for photos, so take your time enjoying one of the best views in Tokyo.

Shibuya Sky offers an unforgettable panoramic view of Tokyo. Sunset is truly the most magical time to visit; however, tickets for that slot were unavailable, so I chose an evening entry instead. Despite missing the sunset, the experience was still absolutely worth it. The city lights created a stunning atmosphere, and the energy of the crowd added to the excitement. Being December, the weather was extremely cold, especially at the open air rooftop, but the breathtaking views made it easy to forget the chill. Overall, Shibuya Sky is a must visit destination that delivers a memorable and thrilling experience, even outside the ideal time slot.

Visiting Shibuya Sky was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. The entire experience was absolutely beautiful — from the moment we entered the building to the breathtaking views at the top. We booked our tickets about one month in advance, which I highly recommend because time slots sell out quickly, especially around sunset. The observation deck offers a 360° panoramic view of Tokyo, and it honestly feels magical when the city starts to light up as the sun goes down. You can see famous landmarks like Tokyo Tower and even Mount Fuji on a clear day. The design of the rooftop space is very modern and open, with glass walls and comfortable sitting areas where you can relax and take in the view. The best time to go is definitely for the sunset — watching the city transform from daylight to a sea of sparkling lights was an unforgettable moment. The sky slowly turns golden and pink, and when the city lights come on, it feels like you’re looking at a living postcard. Everything was well-organised, clean, and peaceful despite the crowd. Staff were polite and helpful, and the elevator ride up was fast and smooth. There’s also a café and lounge area where you can grab a drink while waiting for your slot. If you’re visiting Tokyo, Shibuya Sky is a must-see — it perfectly captures the beauty and energy of the city from above. It’s worth every minute and every yen.

Checked the weather forecast and clear skies = Mt Fuji views from Tokyo! You really get what you paid for, and the views were spectacular all around. You get to view it from the open air area which is spacious, and then hustle downstairs for an enclosed viewing. Booked tickets on klook but popular sunset hours book out early so book at least a day or two in advance

We went up at 3pm on a Thursday afternoon. There was a short wait but we essentially all got right in. Our family of five plus another couple. So the 7 of us enjoyed the afternoon up top for aprox 1.5hrs. There were line ups for specific picture shots up top, with a number of people over staying their time taking shots with a mounting line behind them. But to be expected at a busy attraction as this. There was some interesting art around the inside of the top floor that showed the history of the area and the construction of the building etc. Once we got up to the view, of course it was great and there were plenty of spots to both sit down or lay down to relax as the entire top helicopter pad that you are on is made of Astro-turf. There were some interesting mesh seating areas that were also comfortable. There was one tourist sleeping on one next to us who did not seem too impressed with the noise and excitement of kids around him 🙄 there is always one… However the views were amazing and we were lucky enough to get a clear day. The staff were all very accommodating and helpful as well. There was a rooftop bar/lounge area which looked great as the seating was much like a roped off VIP section at a nightclub, but with this view. However surprisingly there was no one in it… And the bar was not open… It would have been a very cool place to have a couple of beverages of course. All in all a great experience and perch above it all to watch from the top of the city, everything & everyone for miles below you…

Shibuya Sky is honestly one of the best viewpoints I’ve ever visited. The moment you step onto the observation deck, the atmosphere hits you — open, modern, and breathtaking. The 360° views of Tokyo are unreal, especially at sunset when the whole city lights up. Everything is organised and smooth, with friendly staff and a clean, high-quality setup. The outdoor rooftop area is the real highlight — it feels like you’re floating above the city. If you’re visiting Tokyo, this is an absolute must. I’d give it more than 5 stars if I could!

Me and my boyfriend loved Shibuya Sky so much that we ended up staying for two hours! We booked our tickets on Klook.com with a set time slot (definitely recommend to book your tickets online), and even though we arrived about 20 minutes late, the staff were kind enough to still let us in. We visited on a Thursday midday, and it was really crowded, but still totally worth it. There were tons of great photo spots, and the panoramic views were absolutely stunning. The rooftop bar opens at 2pm, and there’s also a bar and dining area on the 45th floor inside the indoor observation area. Overall, an unforgettable experience and one of the best viewpoints in Tokyo! Must go!! Worth the hype!!!

Yes! 45th floor for the Shibuya Sky view of Tokyo is a must! So many views available in every direction, and not only on the 45th floor of the building as a whole. Definitely advise buying in advance through the official website. Yes, you must create an account. Shops and restaurants with places to sit waiting for your show time. If you do buy in advance, no rushing as you wont be admitted till your time. You'll see many sitting around. Keep on mind, day views will have some reflection issues through the glass causing some picture issues. Night views the issues is more people to cause picture issues. Either day or night is great and presents its own pros and cons for getting your best pictures of the overall skyline and street views. Explore
