Easy to find. Friendly and helpful tour guides. Fab thankyou! Managed to get to the top of the tower. View was amazing!
It was more expensive than if you buy them in the official site, but convenient since in the official site there were no more entrances available.
Me encantó. La guía Sra. Dominique fue muy precisa en sus explicaciones. Pudimos ingresar sin largas esperas. La experiencia fue maravillosa! Única
