That said, you can actually see how much the Tower is swaying by looking at a 'plumb -bob' that hangs down in the Skypod and shows the building's movements in the wind (not more than 4 or 5 cms when we visited). So, a word of warning, the Skypod is not for the 'faint of heart'. It was quite windy during our visit so, at the Skypod level, you could actually feel the slight movement of the CN Tower. (Worth noting is that she was perfectly bilingual.) Our guide who took us up to the Skypod (Zaina) was especially welcoming and excited for us. The entire staff and especially the guides seem to understand how exciting this experience can be for first-time visitors. The whole CN Tower experience is one of cool, clean efficiency (even the washroom facilities were modern and spotless). The 447-metre-high SkyPod gets you even closer to the top of the CN Tower’s spire, with views far beyond Toronto-on a clear day, you might be able to see as far as Buffalo and Rochester, New York!įor real thrill-seekers, the CN Tower also boasts EdgeWalk, an attraction between the Lookout Level and the SkyPod in which visitors can strap into safety harnesses and walk without railings on an outdoor platform 356 m above the earth.I took my youngest son to the 'Skypod' to experience the true magic of the CN Tower and we were not disappointed the views were spectacular and unforgettable. The Lookout Level sits at 346 m high with panoramic views of the surrounding city, and a glass floor looking down on the two stories below.

Open since 1976, the CN Tower boasts several levels from which you can take in the 6ix. There are also several other attractions where you can test your fear of heights. There’s the 360 Restaurant at the top that rotates 351 m in the sky. One of the most recognizable pieces of architecture in the Toronto Skyline, the CN Tower is an engineering marvel that for decades reigned supreme as the tallest tower in the world, and is still the tallest freestanding structure in the western hemisphere. The observation level can also be used for events and host up to 700 guests. While taking in the 360-degree panoramic views of the city, there are three bistros where visitors can snack on Canadian food and beverages. Selections include pizza, salads and sandwiches, freshly brewed coffee, gourmet teas and a tempting variety of baked goods. Located at the base of the CN Tower, Le Café caters to a wide array of tastes, providing a delicious range of reasonably priced fresh market fare and beverages ideal for visitors and those on the go.
