Do not book a tour at midday - even with a prior booking the line to get in was enormous. Climbing the tower is actually not essential. It just gives you city and harbour views. Better to go early, take pics and save the time.

While the experience says "skip-the-line," we were actually made to wait on line with other ticket holders for about 45 minutes - there was no other line.

Didn't love anything, as there was no "skip the line". Could have waited for two hours in the sun like everyone else to access the tower.

Belem tower is a beautiful building with great views and is incredibly well preserved. Bought these tickets for the skip the line experience however as we heard queues could be over an hour long. The skip the line experience only applies to purchasing tickets not the actual entry which is where the line was on that day. The lines were over an hour long so be prepared for this.

We bought the Skip-The-Line Tickets to Belem Tower with Audio Guide but when we arrived the tower, we were taught we still needed to wait in the queue and there's no the queue for skipping the line. We still need to wait for more than one hour to enter into the tower under a big sunny day!
