You will be climbing 332 steps to reach the base of the tower, and many of the stone stairways are very narrow with no handrails. A reasonable level of fitness is required and we advise anyone with any mobility issues or pre-existing health conditions to consider this before booking.

This tour is not suitable for children under the age of 7 or anyone under the height of 1.2m. Each child aged 7-10 must be individually accompanied by a responsible adult. For 11-17 year-olds, there must be at least one adult for every five children. 

Booking online in advance will give you access to the best ticket prices. Tickets may be available for tours on the day at a higher rate. However, tours are very popular and often book up in advance so we cannot guarantee spaces will be available.
