Must-See Sydney
For information about Sydney's internationally renowned shopping districts and markets, innovative museums and galleries, and cultural icons and landmarks, please visit the following websites:
Bridge Climb
Do not leave Sydney without experiencing one of Australia's most exciting and accessible adventures.
Bridge Climb takes you to the very top of one of our most recognised man-made landmarks - the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It clambers over a massive 503 metre curve, and it is of the world's widest and largest (but not the longest) steel arch bridge.
As you climb, you will behold a view like no other - a full 360 degrees of one of the greatest harbours surrounded by one of the world's greatest cities that will take your breath away. The climbs are conducted during the day and at night. However, a night climb is said to be a completely new experience, with its spectacular panorama of city lights unfolding as you journey aloft. Each step you take reveals more of Sydney's electric night-time wonderland.
