This is a must do bucket filler when in Sydney. Very safe and well operated. It is a little pricey but worth it. We had good weather and clear skies so the view was awesome.

From the wonderful sandstone pillons to the arch in the middle of this old lady this bridge is gorgeous. If you can't afford the time or money for the bridge climb then pay for the climb up the pillon for the view. It's a great viewing platform of Sydney. Can get rather windy though. But you have got reference points... More

Iconic landmark and an integral route of transportation. Climb it, walk it or just look at it, worth taking a picture of it even if you live here.

We walked the 200 steps to the top of the pylon which was good value for 11 dollars, great views all around the top and a nice little museum about the construction of the bridge

Do the bridge climb. It's not as bad or high as you would expect. I am 52 and not that fit but managed it quite easily. Great experience. Take their advice though and don't wear your trousers under those gorgeous suits.

My partner and I received our tickets to climb our national structure last year as a gift and we could not have thought of anything better!! The views were spectacular - I would definitely recommend climbing bridge in the group that starts during the late afternoon and finishes in the evening. You get a variety of backgrounds for your photos... More
