I was disappointed, I was excited to see the penguins so I made sure my ticket said with penguin cove. When I got there I learned that the penguins do not come out until 1125am and that i could go into the cove for an additional AED 100 but not until 130pm. Then was told i would have to pay even more for the picture. I decided I would just leave as I had wasted a bunch of time just waiting for the screens to be lifted where the penguins were at. The Burj Khalifa at the top was breathtaking. I have been to the top of many tall buildings, but this was amazing and you dont get the sway feeling that you are up that high. I am excited to take my kids on the next trip to Dubai. Happy I chose early morning. I got the observation deck to myself, but when I was leaving it was like evwryonw had woken up and the line was long.
