Berlin’s revolving restaurant - without queuing

Clear early morning skies - and not a cloud in sight? Then it’s time to hop out of bed and head for the TV Tower. For this popular tourist sight, the early riser really does skip the queues for the lift, especially on sunny days. And that avoids those long waiting times which children (and adults!) can find so tiresome. But whether you are an early riser or not, it’s always worth checking the weather beforehand - and booking fast track tickets. Our tip: Book e-tickets - and choose the time for the lift which suits you best!

If you’re planning to make the most of your visit and enjoy the spectacular views of the city from the revolving Sphere Restaurant, then online booking is really a must. The restaurant offers a wide range of tasty international cuisine, as well as selected children’s menus including chicken dishes and ice cream!

The display panels set around the observation platform are marked with the key sights help you to identify buildings, parks and gardens.

Back down on the ground, you can find a great selection of posters, T-shirts and other items in the TV Tower gift shop, all decorated with one of the most iconic symbols of this reunited city - and providing a wonderful memento of your visit!
