Burj Khalifa Level 124 and 125: what to know before you book
Burj Khalifa Level 124 and 125 means the observation decks on levels 124 and 125 of the Burj Khalifa, with views over the city and the Gulf. This guide explains what to expect, who it suits and how to book. We do not sell tickets ourselves: we send you to a trusted partner page, where you choose your date and see the cancellation terms before you pay.
At a glance

What to expect
A fast lift takes you up to level 124, where floor-to-ceiling glass and telescopes give you the view, with an outdoor terrace on level 125 according to listings. Descriptions also mention photo opportunities and a virtual reality glass-floor simulation.
The ticket is timed. Prime hours (around 3 to 7 pm, sunset period) are sold differently from non-prime hours, so check which slot your option covers.

How to get there
By metro
Take the Red Line to Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station. An air-conditioned walkway of about 820 metres leads to The Dubai Mall, roughly 10 to 15 minutes on foot.
By taxi or car
Ask for The Dubai Mall. Entrance to the attraction is on the lower ground level of the mall, so follow the Burj Khalifa signs once inside.
