Pros

  • Tokyo Tower is also fun and there were a lot of kids there when we went.
  • Then we went up the Tokyo Tower and loved it - fun, retro vibes and great views.
  • I'd suggest to skip SkyTree and after Asakusa go to Tokyo Tower (especially if you don't go to Shibuya Sky) - the view seems to be more interesting.
  • Although It’s an older observation deck, it felt very charming and had a lovely view. ... The tower looks really special at night when it’s lit up, so highly recommend going in the evening!
  • Tokyo tower was unexpectedly good. Although It’s an older observation deck, it felt very charming and had a lovely view. ... The tower looks really special at night when it’s lit up, so highly recommend going in the evening!

Cons

  • three observatories in tokyo is overkill to me. i've done all three and shibuya sky was my favorite. i would drop tokyo tower and skytree
  • Walk to Tokyo Tower and go to the top (I don't care for this but my grandma really wanted to do it)
  • Your kids would love Shibuya crossing and Skytree (Tokyo tower is boring).
  • u don't need both Skytree and Tokyo Tower, they're kinda the same if ur short on time
  • Especially when you don’t have much of any time in Tokyo, Skytree and Tokyo Tower are redundant.

Then I joined my friends at Tokyo Tower and we stayed there quite a bit and saw the sunset. I can recommend it, maybe not the best view possible of Tokyo (heard Shibuya Sky is the best?) but the building is cool!
