Before you go
Check current closures and detours. Motorcoach drivers must confirm tunnel clearances and access roads for the section they choose.
Allow time for the approach, interpretation and breaks. Check the specific facilities and walking surfaces your guests need.
Current access, reservations, fees and operating arrangements should be checked with the official operator or managing agency. Photographs can show earlier conditions.
