The new Atlanta Ferris wheel, SkyView, is located at the south of Centennial Park in downtown Atlanta.

A standard ride costs $13.50 for adults. It takes about 15 minutes, and includes four rotations of the wheel. Riders make the trip in one of 42 air-conditioned gondolas, each of which can carry six people.

A ride in the VIP gondola, with a television, glass floor and Ferrari leather seats, costs $50.
