It was easy going in and out. The view was fantastic. There was no line up when went. The staff are very helpful.

The view from the top was pretty good. Some sides were limited due to taller more recent buildings. Directions to location were close but not entirely accurate. Eventually got there soon after. Information upstairs was good and helpful. Didn't want to play on phone as there were already others doing it and made it hard for them. Could suggest that people bring headphones or Bluetooth pods. Staff communication was only as little as possible. No warning about glass backing to lift as could be daunting to some people. I mentioned this to the staff downstairs when leaving and didn't seem to understand or care. Could recommend using space upstairs with a cafe or other sponsor information booth.

Unfortunately we didn’t actually get to do this experience as we arrived to late. Sadly we had booked it that same day so no money back but the situation was out of our control

The audio connects to your phone, but kept stopping and starting over. Decided to not use it and just read along the way. The tour was worth it for the price, just for the experience of doing it.
