You are all so lucky to be there and to witness history in the making .... the tower is nearly at 328 metres (the same height as the SkyTower, the tallest structure in the Southern hemisphere)

and it is only 300.. but it is not that useful to go much higher when it comes to view.. i mean, u don't see any people or even cars and visibility is rarely good in Dubai.

Kia ora. :-)
In the skytower visitors will only get up to 190 meters if staying on the inside of the tower. On the outside there are guided tours allowing you to climb up to 270 meters. You also have the possibility to make a bungy-like jump from the tower. I don't think Burj Dubai would allow that kind of activities.

To me it was anyway sufficient to walk over the glass part of the floor on the obeservation deck looking down at the streets nearly 200 meters below. :-)
