Frequently asked questions

Clear answers to the most common questions travelers ask before booking this experience.

Booking FAQs

In order to preserve the tower, metal objects, bags, or containers are not allowed in.

The climb involves 273 steep steps with no elevators, so it is not accessible for wheelchair users and guests with cardiovascular issues. For safety reasons, children under 8 cannot access the tower, and those aged 8-18 must be accompanied by an adult.

You’ll have 30 minutes total in the Tower, including your climb, time at the top, and descent. Your guide will share all insights before the Tower climb (not during), then join you inside the Cathedral for a fully guided experience. As the Cathedral is a place of worship, remember to wear clothing that covers your shoulders and knees.
