For my 59th birthday we climbed the Sydney Harbor Bridge and had a wonderful adventure. The bridge arch itself is not hard, but some of the interior ladders to get to the arch are challenging. This was an expensive attractions, but absolutely the experience of a life time. Do it, you will not regret it. more

At first I thought the Bridge a bit of a disappointment, looked old, like GW Bridge n NYC, not immediately impressive like Golden Gate or Verrazanno Narrows. But it grows on you and you get used to it being there as a background to most photos. One morning we started to walk across it (bottom road level walkway, not the... more

The Bridge Climb. Hardwork in places if you are unfit. But well worth the effort when you get to the top. Outstanding views. Staff knowlegeable and friendly, and will put nervous climbers at ease. more

On a recent visit to Sydney we climbed Sydney Harbour Bridge, having booked it on the internet before leaving home. I would recommend this experience to anyone. Don't worry about heights, you feel completely safe and the views from the top are magnificent. Its just a pity you can't take cameras up to capture it all although I can fully... more

This is a "do not miss" attraction in Sydney. My 14 year old son and I are still talking about our climb to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The view from the summit is just incredible and I can't believe how safe we felt. Also, it was interesting to connect with other travelers the world over. Many in... more

Well worth doing as long as you can bring yourself to accept that it is not value for money. The climb is easy. Essentially you walk along some flat catwalks, climb a set of steep stairs which they call ladders but aren't, then walk up a gentle stairway on the arch of the bridge. Unless you are terribly scared of... more

The climb was OKish, but highly overpriced. Can think of better ways to spend the $180, but then that is my view, you may feel otherwise! The climb guides are competent & friendly, safety is assured, and the climb itself is not much of a challenge even for sedentary types like yours truly. You are not allowed to take your... more

I did the Early Twilight climb in September 2008. The evening climbs are more expensive than the day ones. It is nice to see the city lights but I'm not sure the overall pricing gap is worth it. As previous reviewers have mentioned, the first 45 minutes or so is taken up by "suiting up" and getting your gear in... more

I completed this climb a couple of years ago with my brothers and father in December. After already living in Sydney for several years before I attempted the climb, I thought that I had seen all Sydney could offer in terms of views, but to my surprise i was amazed at how much cooler it was to be standing on... more

This was my one big splurge on a recent trip to Sydney, and it was worth it. The views are spectacular, and you get plenty of time to enjoy them, you never feel rushed by the leader. As the other reviews say, you are firmly attached to the bridge (though I have no problem with heights, and I would have... more
