What Does the Top Deck Tour Entail?

The special observation deck, which stands 250 meters above sea level and that has been closed owing to renovations since October 2016, will receive a grand opening on March 3, 2018, under the new name of "Top Deck".

The Top Deck Tour entails a hands-on experience of the special Top Deck, which provides a sense of floating in the sky and that has been designed in accordance with an image of The Future of Tokyo and the Future of Observation Decks.

Reservations made on the Advance Reservation System provide a tour that can be joined without waiting, a multilingual voice guide system in 13 languages that explains the landmarks being viewed, a drink service, a photo-card gift and, more importantly, warm hospitality from our attendants. Participants will experience Tokyo Tower's history, and ride a new glass-paneled elevator up to the Top Deck while enjoying panoramic views of modern-day Tokyo, where they will be enveloped by geometric mirrors and LED lighting that immerse them in the atmosphere of a future metropolis.
The Top Deck Tour provides the world with omotenashi hospitality as Tokyo Tower approaches its 60th anniversary since opening, and only participants of this tour are able to experience the fun available on the Top Deck.
