CN Tower: CN Tower--It was not intended for this...
The CN Tower was originally built as a communications hub. It is used for broadcasting, cellular relay, and communications trunks. It was never intended to be used as a way to soak tourists. This is the biggest ripoff in Toronto. I have never been up the tower myself, but I have been in the base. Ten years ago the admission to ride the elevator to the top was $14. It is probably more now. Furthermore, there is a restaraunt in the tower, so you have to pay to go up, then pay remarkable prices for mediocore food. I hear from others that the food is OK, but not worth the prices charged for it. In addition, the observation deck has a glass floor. Not a good idea for someone with acrophobia. Also, if you are daring, you can use the stairs!

There are things to do at the base, without having to go up.

Anything other than the Tower.

CN Tower: CN Tower
Toronto's most famous, most visible landmark, the CN Tower is the world's tallest free-standing structure. Built in 1976, the tower measures 553 metres in height. From its Lookout Level it offers a stunning view of the city, especially at sunset. Daring visitors can test their courage by taking a walk across the glass floor 113 stories above the ground, or travel higher up the tower to the Sky Pod another 33 storeys above ground.

CN Tower: WELL WE ALL KNOW WHAT I AM...
WELL WE ALL KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO SAY....CN TOWER I THINK ITS OVER RATED, JUST BECAUSE ITS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR WHAT IT IS, $40 OR SO DIDNT EVEN TAKE ME UP TO THE VERY TOP!!, ITS COOL, BUT I WAS PISSED BECAUSE ITS TOO BUSY, CANT GET NEAR A WINDOW, AND THE ELEVATOR MADE ME WANT TO VOMIT, AND GAVE ME A HEADACHE FOR THE DAY, BUT IT IS INEVITABLE YOU'LL GO UP ANYWAY, AND MIGHT ACTUALLY ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE.

CN Tower: CN Tower Discout
Yes, the CN Tower is well worth the time but at $16.00 a person, it is a bit expensive. When you are buying tickets, you should somehow mention that you have lived in Toronto all of your life, but have still never been up the tower. It is not advertised, but residents of Toronto usually get a 50% off deal. Thus, at $8.00 a person, it is well worth the money as well. I have never been asked to prove I was a resident either, just mention it and you should get the cheep price. Secondly, it is not really worth the money to go up to the skypod. There really is no difference in the view from 1000 feet in the air, to 1200 feet in the air. Save your money and just stay on the main deck. There is an indoor and an outdoor observation deck on two levels.
