Absolutely incredible experience. Our guide Maria was phenomenal — she explained the symbolism behind every detail and we completely lost track of time. The tower views are breathtaking. Book as early as possible, it sells out weeks in advance!
The skip-the-line access alone is worth the price. We walked straight in while the queue outside stretched around the block. The interior is unlike anything I've ever seen — the light through those windows is otherworldly.
Great tour but be prepared for lots of walking. The guide was very knowledgeable. Tower lift was a bit slow but views were worth it. Highly recommend the morning slots for the best light inside the nave.
