It was a bit of a shame that the weather was windy and a tad rainy but I still got a good 360 view of San Francisco. The arch shape of the windows added a cool effect. Worth a visit!Full review by Simonkn20

Don't think I can help you because my husband and I seen the tower from the road and wondered what it was. We walked up the hill (very steep) and paid at the entrance which is just inside the door. There was no queues and no time slots. We just "rocked up" and went in. After seeing this place I am so glad we did NOT get this on any tour. I don't think it's worth that.
