sr5242 Posted August 23, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Hi, Sorry if this has been asked before- my mother walks slowly with a cane, and can climb stairs slowly. Would she be able to handle the Clock Tower tour in venice? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Softtop67 Posted August 28, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Clock tower not an issue but the upstairs at the Basilica will be. Its a very very steep staircase. Also Doges Palace secret itinerary tour has some smaller stairwells but may be manageable. The normal Doges tour is easy to manage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it takes 10 minutes to go through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Softtop67 Posted August 29, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 29, 2012 yes as you walk in its all the way to the right a very steep narrow staircase takes you up to an outdoor balcony plus they have some artifacts up there as well. Great views of the plaza and Doges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr5242 Posted November 12, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted November 12, 2012 just an update for anyone also interested in seeing the clock tower- the info I received here on CC was WRONG- the clock tower DOES NOT have an elevator- the bell tower does. I hope to save people the money I wasted based on bad CC advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
