Australia
Instead of paying ridiculous amounts of money to put on an ugly grey suit and be frog-marched up the bridge, why not walk across the whole bridge, and make your way up the pylon (200 steps) to visit the bridge's museum? The views are similar and the museum is interesting. Walking across the bridge is free, the museum costs around £3. Compare this to Bridge Climb that costs around £70.
If coming from the Rocks, enter from Cumberland Street. The other entrance is near Milsons Point or you can enter via Observatory Hill/ Kent Street.
A well-organised and dizzyingly exciting outing. You don grey jumpsuits, strap yourself onto a wire, then walk out underneath the bridge, up a ladder, along one of the curves to the top of the bridge, across the bridge and back down the opposite curve. From the top you see one of the greatest views in the world. Do the climb at night and see the same view with the lights on. Breathtaking.
