PLEASE NOTE
During periods of increased inflow of visitors, despite our reservations, the admission to the Tower may be subject to delays, mainly due to security reasons for which the access to the Tower is regulated according to the number of people inside it. Based on the above reasons any possible delay cannot be attributable to Caf Tour & Travel responsibility.
