About Sydney Tower Eye Observation Deck

Standing at 309 meters (1,014 feet) above Sydney, the Sydney Tower Eye is the city's tallest structure and offers the ultimate view of Sydney and beyond. The Observation Deck provides breathtaking 360-degree views of the entire city, from the beautiful harbor and Sydney Opera House to the Blue Mountains in the distance. The Sydney Tower Eye has been an iconic part of the Sydney skyline for over 40 years, welcoming more than 20 million visitors through its doors. The Observation Deck is located 250 meters above street level, providing unrivaled views of Sydney's famous landmarks and suburbs. Your experience begins with a 4D cinema experience - a short film with in-theater effects including wind, bubbles, and fire - that takes you on a virtual flight through Sydney before you ascend to the Observation Deck in one of the high-speed elevators. Once at the top, you can explore the full 360-degree viewing platform at your leisure. Interactive touchscreens and multilingual information panels help you identify key landmarks and learn about Sydney's history and culture. Binoculars are available for a closer look at points of interest. For the truly adventurous, the optional SKYWALK experience (additional fee applies) takes you outside the tower on a glass-floor platform, where you'll be harnessed to a safety rail as you walk around the outside of the tower for an even more thrilling perspective. With your Sydney Super Pass, entry to the Sydney Tower Eye Observation Deck is completely included, allowing you to experience Sydney from its highest vantage point without any additional cost.

Amazing views of Sydney! We went just before sunset and watched the city transform as the lights came on - absolutely magical. Using our Super Pass for free entry was so convenient. The 4D cinema experience before going up was a fun bonus. Definitely a must-do when visiting Sydney!

Great experience with fantastic views. We could see all the way to the Blue Mountains on a clear day. The interactive screens helped identify landmarks we weren't familiar with. It gets busy around sunset, so go early if you want a quieter experience. Worth using your Super Pass for!
