    Iconic

    Paired with the Opera House, this Sydney icon beams across the water for all to see! It manages to make steel trusses appear magestic!

    Another Sydney Icon

    The shape is unmistakable and we were lucky enough to see a cruise ship arrive and cruise under the bridge to go to Darling Harbour. With everything so close it is easy to see why the area is frequented by local and international tourists.

    The beauty of the Bridge

    One of the greatest wonders of the world. Simply stunning to drive over, walk over and take pictures under the bridge! Well worth a visit and close by is another famous landmark! Situated over a beautiful harbour it it a photographers dream.

    Good vantage point but boxed in

    The Harbor Bridge is one of Sydney's most popular tourist destinations. The bridge features a pedestrian walkway that is free of charge, and offers a great vantage point for viewing Sydney. However, the walkway is completely enveloped by a metal fence--topped with barbed wire. Any...More

    A bridge for all seasons

    The old coat hanger never disappoints. Day and night it feeds the tourist and the Sydney locals. A real highlight.

    One of Sydney’s icons, recommended from all angles and places

    When you are in Circular Quay you can walk towards the bridge to get a nice view of the bridge and of the Opera House. An unforgettable experience was watching the fireworks for new years eve from a boat in the harbor.

    The guide will take pictures. You get a group photo, can purchase others for $25 or pay $60 aud and get all pictures and a video on a jump drive. I did the climb last week, it was a blast. Have a great time!!

    Claiming Sydney Bridge it is a bit demanding. Consider slowly going up approximately 30 floors. If you can do it then try. It is fantastic experience. Good luck Branimir
