Definitely worth going up - Great viewing platform overlooking the whole city. Although I wasn't there all that long but you can take as long as you like. I enjoyed the views over the city and would recommend it to anyone.

Good views of Liverpool - Lovely way to look out over the city. Can spend as long as you like at the top. Worth a visit when in Liverpool . The lift is quick and there are few seats at the gallery but no cafe , it’s literally a viewing gallery only.

Great Views - Me and my daughter visited for the first time on Friday 31st May. We were really impressed at the views and his much you could see. Bonus was there was a group there at the same time think they were called the old boys and they were playing at the Cavern in the night time the sang a Beatles song gif a group of older ladies who were so happy they were very good just added a bit of charm to the experience.

Great experience, maybe little pricey - Opened on time at 11am. No large bags can be taken up but can leave for free in locked cupboard. Lady who took us on 30 second lift ride knowledgeable. Can go round level as many times as you wish. Nice to see places we had visited from different perspective. I found river most exciting to watch as forever changing. Hits radio used to transmit from studios here - would have been nice to access. Friendly staff. Visit on clear day.

Worth it for the view - Despite living and working in Liverpool for years I'd never been up to the top of St Johns Beacon/Radio City Tower. It's a good value trip up to the top with fabulous 360 degree views of Liverpool and the coastline. Would recommend if you're in town.
