Loved all of it. Exceptional tour. The only thing that could be improved is the information on where to queue when first arriving. The man on the door didn't make it clear, then got cross when folks where getting it wrong. But it didn't spoil our tour of the building. And it's def best done at night. The view was incredible.

Tickets were easy to book and to redeem. It was a great way to lots of the city, including places we probably wouldn't have gotten to on our own. My husband really enjoyed the narration.
