An English-speaking host introduces the experience, while coffee, juice, dates, and snacks are served upstairs. Allow 1.5 hours, and arrive early for sunset or the Dubai Fountain.

When it was time to go up you’re given a Gold sticker to wear, and we must’ve walked past over 500 people queuing and saved a 2-3 hours wait. That alone was worth the additional cost of a Gold ticket, but it also means you get access to floor 148. Less crowded, coffee, orange juice and nibbles are served, and the views are unbelievable.
