This is one of the coolest things I've ever done. We were able to get tickets to climb the stairs to the crown, which are limited in number and can be quite difficult to get. It was so worth it! It was quite the workout, but we just climbed slowly and steadily, not rushing and trying to avoid getting winded. The stairs were tiny and there were little resting points of you needed. If you are able bodied, you should do this at least once in your life.
