5.00Make sure you're early to meeting point. Bit of a walk away from the tower. Your bags & belongings will be screened twice like at airports. No locks, knives, scissors, etc that could score the paint. It can get cold & windy up on 2nd level. The views are amazing. Natali was a fantastic guide & everything went well & precise. Good English too. Very pleased with her efforts & knowledge.
Great tour.

5.00We were able to get through the security checks and into the tower without standing in line for long. If you are clostrophobic or afraid of heights this tour is not for you. lol. The elevator rides to the second floor and to the top are packed in tight! We had a great guide (Janet) who was very fun and informative. The views are fantastic from the top and we were able to stay for as long as we liked.
Wonderful experience
