Customer Reviews
The tour was fantastic, tour guide was great and the line skip was a must
While it may be a bit pricier than the general option, the VIP Tour was really worth it. A personal tour guide takes you through the building and the observation areas and you skip the line for everything. Digital Photo package was included and very worthwhile.
