Effortless climb and great commentary
Highly recommend going up the tower and paying little fees for their audio guide. Commentary is lovely and poetic. Model of almbhara I side is great. Views from top are goood. Steps are easy and loved the carpeted stairs.. We kept listening to commentary as we claimed stairs, instead of sitting in front of each display. Gains time.

Small museum with audio guide and stunning view from the roof
Torre de Calahorra is situated at the end of the Puente Romano and is a small museum with audio guide tour in Spanish or English. Well done, but not a must for me. My highlight was the view from the roof of the tower. You should check the opening hours in advance, as it was only open from Friday to Sunday at the time of our visit. The staff was friendly and could communicate in Spanish and English. Student discount prices even without showing the student ID.
