It was really thrilling to view both the river and the city from the top of the arch. It was a fun trip. However, we were disappointed that the entire place was not very handicap friendly. In order to get to the arch trams, there were many (like 100) steps and no other way to get around them to the trams. My husband is able to do steps, slowly, but there was no extra consideration given to help him with the steps or anything (or the other ladies near us who also walked with canes). We stood in line (no place for them to sit, either) ... due to security we stood for half an hour just to get in ... again, no accomodations for those who have difficulty with that ... then stood in line at least half an hour for the tram to the top. By the time we got back down he was too spent to do any looking in the museum, which many have told us is the best part. But if you're young and healthy, do go here, because the view from the top is worth it!
