The tower - it's from the start a cinematic experience, going through the halls and leaving my eyes behind every corner to stare, only to find out that my body was also stopping to feel the stunning interiors. At the elevator queue, I found myself calmed by the height animation rendered on the wall, then to be amazed by the instant information of the current height from inside the lift. And then - THE VIEW. The view which made me forget it all, going don't-know-how-many rounds around the center pillar and the tranquil bar to see every corner of Berlin.

Berlin is Berlin. If you don't get one, you get the other. If the weather is bad, you don't have to queue at the tower. You might not be able to fully enjoy the view, but you'll be visually compensated by architecture and technology in a nostalgic guise. I love it because it used to be like that and that was a long time ago ;-) But let's stick to it: we didn't have a good view on this day, but after the descent we had brilliant views thanks to the light show. What an event. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Everything was very well organized and we were able to book another ticket for our group on site without any problems. The process up to the top went quickly, and the TV tower is in a very nice, renovated condition. Absolutely recommendable and a must for Berlin visitors to see the city from a height of 280m. There is no time pressure, you can stay there as long as you like. Finally, we did VR, which was also highly recommended for the small extra charge.

Bypass long ticket queues with fast-track access to Berlin’s tallest structure, the Berlin TV Tower, and enjoy unlimited time soaking in views of the city's skyline.

Step into the tower's observation deck and take in 360° panoramic views, spotting landmarks like the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin Cathedral, and Museum Island.

Enhance your visit with a virtual reality experience (Berlin's Odyssey) that takes you on an immersive journey through 9 centuries of Berlin’s rich and turbulent history.

Relax with a drink at Sphere, the highest bar in Berlin, perched above the skyline, perfect for grabbing that unforgettable photo.

Fun fact: The Berlin TV Tower was nicknamed the “Pope’s Revenge” or “St. Walter” because, when sunlight hits the mirrored dome, it reflects the shape of a cross. This effect was especially embarrassing for the atheist East German regime that built the tower!

The booked entry time is not checked, so there were many more people waiting. The security check takes quite a long time. The view is spectacular and worthwhile in good weather. The price is steep. The service at the Sphere Bar on the viewing platform was extremely friendly 🙂

The view is great. Berlin at sunset is highly recommended. The experience itself is therefore SUPER! However, I don't understand why I have to download an app to show the online tickets once I've entered. A PDF attached to the confirmation email would have done the trick. The prices for drinks are very overpriced, but that's normal in places where you have no other choice.
