Absolutely fabulous 20 bed b&b situated 10 minutes from Trinity College. Excellent service and staff and a closed door policy so only guests allowed. Rumoured to be closing soon but should not be missed if you hate big souless hotels.

This is one of the best things I did in Sydney, and it is exactly what it sounds like. A group of up to twelve climbers go up one side of the harbour bridge with a guide. There is a quick training session where you can experience the types of ladders, stairs and walkways that make up the bridge and you are also suited up with all the gear.

Then you go out and are attached to the railings on the bridge and climb. It is not too strenuous and the only time I was afraid was when I was on my way down in the dark and a train sped by me as I was on a ladder. Which was an experience in itself. The guides are fantastic and really know their stuff.

You are not allowed to bring a camera with you but there are many photo opportunities and then the pictures can be purchased for an outrageously over-priced $15 each. Loads of merchandise as well of course.
