AMP Building / Centre Point: Killer View
  • Tip Rating:
  • Take a ride to the top of Sydney Tower and photograph the many panoramic views from up here. On a clear day you can see as far as Botany Bay to the North Shore and the Blue Mountains. With revolving restaurants and a coffe shoppe you are sure to get some fantastic views of the City of Sydney. There is a 162,000-litre tank above the observation deck which acts as a stabilizer on windy days. There is a "skywalk" which is a guided tour around the roof for those that are brave enough. We didn't get a chance to climb to the top of the tower on this trip. We opted instead on having lunch at the "Summit" a 5* restaurant that revolves located at Australia Square, 44th floor.

    AMP Building / Centre Point: I hope you aren't afraid of heights
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Sydney tower is one of the tallest structures in Sydney. It has the highest observation deck in the Southern hemisphere and offers awsome 360 degree views of the city. I'm sure you could take some great sunrise pictures here, but I wouldn't know because my friend and I went in the evening. I thought that was the best time to go. You can watch an amazing sunset and watch the city light up. There is also some type of informative tour that you can take that is quite fun. It ends with a virtual type ride!

  • Tip Rating:
  • the centrepoint tower stands out wherever you are in the city. a prominent building in the sydney skyline, you can take the lift up to the top observatory and take in the sweeping views that go out for miles. for $22 you also get to take the "skytour" which is where you sit in this chair that shakes and rattles, and it feels like your flying over sydney. it's pretty cool! allow for a few hours if you plan to do both the observation deck and the skytour.

    AMP Building / Centre Point: Sydney Tower
  • Tip Rating:
  • For splendid views over Sydney you must go up the tower! It's certainly not cheap with a ticket price of 23,50 AU$ (there are some discount voucher in several tourist brochures), but it's definitely worth it on a sunny & clear day. Included in the ticket price is the admission to Oz Trek, a simulated ride across Australia. If you're brave enough, you can have a walk on top of the restaurant/observation section of the tower. The tower which was completed in 1981 is 305 m tall with the observation deck at 250m.

    AMP Building / Centre Point: Towering over Sydney

    The AMP Tower is a 300m tall 'needle-shaped' tower. It has awesome views of all of Sydney. They have free tours, where the tour-guide will point out that; circular quay is not circular, central station is not central, and that Australia Square is cylindrical. Definitely worth it!! Just be warned that when you buy your ticket to go up the tower - it is double ended, so that you may go up to the observation deck (and restaurant), and to see the skytour show - which gives a sound and visual show of what has made Australia.... Australia. So don't be like me and buy two tickets - when you only need one! Open: Sun-Fri: 9am - 10.30pm Sat: 9am - 11.30pm Has good wheelchair access.

    AMP Building / Centre Point: Sydney Tower
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Sydney Tower is ranked as one of the safest buildings in the world. The design has made the tower capable of withstanding earthquakes and extreme wind conditions. 56 cables stabilise the tower, and if the strands of these cables were laid end to end, they would reach from Sydney to Alice Springs, or from Sydney to New Zealand

    AMP Building / Centre Point: AMP Tower( CenterPoint)
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you’ve got a head for heights, a visit to Centrepoint Tower - Sydney’s tallest building - is a must. Towering 300m above the city, Centrepoint Tower offers magnificent views that extend to the Central Coast to the north, Wollongong to the south and the Blue Mountains to the west. There is also a great Restaurant on top floor which spins around while you're dining. You get to experience Sydney from way high above the city and eat excellent food. We tried Crocodile meat while we were there. Very Chewy!!

    The AMP Centerpoint Tower is the highest building in the Southern Hemisphere. Therefore, seeing it is pretty easy. It's that extremely tall pointy thing with a little building piece in the middle. : ) The tower is over 300 meters tall, and on a clear day, you can see, in addition to all of Sydney, all the way to the Blue Mountains! Don't worry, there IS an elevator, so you'll not have to take the stairs, should you choose to ascend the tower. The cost, if I remember exactly, for an adult entry is A$15. For your money, you'll get a terrific view of Sydney. And although A$15 isn't cheap, it's less than climbing the Harbour Bridge. ; ) There are restaurants and various stores at the base of the AMP Centerpoint Tower.

    A surprisingly disappointing view from the tower is to be had. Its great for distant coasts and bays. and certainly provides proof as to why, in area, Sydney is twice as big as London and three times as big as NY. Problem is the close proximity of other office blocks tot he tower, thus blocking the view of the Opera House completely and providing only a glimpse of the Harbour and Bridge.

    AMP Building / Centre Point: A Virtual Tour of Australia in the Sydney Tower
  • Tip Rating:
  • For $22 per adult, you receive admission to a virtual tour in which you watch and listen to information about Australia's history, and are taken on a "ride" (with moving seats and all) through various parts of Australia, starting with a climb over the Sydney Harbour Bridge, a stroll on Bondi Beach, a dive in the Great Barrier Reef, a too-close for comfort encounter with the jaws of a crocodile, a view of Uluru, and many other lovely locations. The information is provided in several Asian languages as well as in English. Also included in that price is entry to the Observation Tower from which you are able to look at the city of Sydney, and as far as the horizon (on a clear day you can see the distant Blue Mountains in the west). You have a full 360 degree view.
