Hello Gary, On their site you can even buy tickets in a time slot. I have not been up because at times it was so busy. The torre is not made for a lot of tourists because it’s a monument. The time you need for the way up depends on all the other people who join in your time slot. Better be patient when going but I guess once you’re up there the view must be magnificent. In other Torres like the one on Piazza Maggiore seems to be better equipped for the modern tourist. Enjoy! And don’t forget to eat the real pasta from this amazing city.
