      Sydney harbour bridge

      Has anyone done the harbour bridge walk/climb experience - is it worth the $200 or so? Thinking of getting it for my OH as a Christmas present.

      Well worth it, no other view in Sydney like it and it's pretty easy to do as well.

      apparently you can just go up the tower for pretty much the same view for a fraction of the price, but obviously you don't get the adrenaline rush doing it that way.

      It is well worth the trip to the top. Great views.

      We did the twilight tour so it was light when we went up and saw the sun set and all the city lights came on. Absolutely fab and would do it again too

      I did it at xmas. I thought it was excellent, from the minute you walk into the main building. the whole set up and preparation - supplying of kit, the safetly explanations, and breath tests to the minute yout ake all your kit off (safety kit that is) at the end of the climb.

      The views were amazing, and it was nice to listen to the guitdes, and chat to the people in front of and behind you in the climb line.

      It was a fab experience, but not quite the adrenalin rush i was expecting, i think thats because it is a gentle climb. It is a memory that I will never forget, and I deffinitely reommend it.
