A visit to Tokyo Tower is a must if you’re visiting Tokyo for the first time. It resembles the Eiffel Tower in which you can visit the observation decks. However, Tokyo Tower is the tallest tower in the world making it a popular tourist spot! This tower is 333 meters tall and the Eiffel Tower is 330 meters tall. Where you’ll want to visit is precisely the Tokyo Tower Top Deck!

Tokyo Tower has two floors, the main deck and the top deck. The main deck is 150 meters up and the top deck is 250 meters. In my opinion, if you’ve never experienced Tokyo Tower, you should purchase the top deck tour ticket at least once. You can only do this with a reservation and it will be cheaper if you purchase online. Purchasing the top deck tour will get you entry into both floors. It runs about $22.00 per adult with cheaper tickets for children and people with disabilities.

You can get a 360° panoramic view from visiting the observation deck. Make sure you purchase tickets for the Tokyo Tower Top Deck Tour ahead of time for this experience.

We visited in the fall so we were able to see an entire Halloween show that projected onto the windows of the top deck. It was fascinating!

At the top you will see screens with K-Pop, lights, and there are also stations where you can get your stamp book stamped. If you don’t know, you can purchase a stamp book for a collection of Eki stamps & other popular landmarks as a travel notebook for your memories. The “Essence of Japan” is the one I purchased before our trip.

At the main deck you will see a double thick paned glass on the floor where you can step on and see all the way down. There is also a souvenir shop and a cafe on this deck.

Heading down on the elevator.

At the base of the tower, known as Foot Town, you will see more shops, restaurants, and interactive games.

As I mentioned before, a visit to Tokyo Tower is a must if you’re visiting Tokyo for the first time. And make sure you take the top deck tour. The views are stunning. This was our first stop in Japan and we got a great introduction of Tokyo from the top. You will love it!
