Climbing a steel mountain…why wouldn’t you?!? - The Story Bridge Adventure Climb Experience ROCKED! I never thought I would do this. It wasn’t even on my radar to do. I climb real mountains, never steel ones. It was interesting though, my first day in Brisbane I walked a loop around the river and ended up at an awesome Italian Food Festival at Howard Smith Wharves. I walked the board walk and kept taking pictures of the Story Bridge. As I was doing so, I kept noticing people on the top of it and would stop to watch them climb up and over. Honestly still not thinking a thing of it. YET for some unknown reason I was working the next morning on my computer and have literally no idea why, but looked it up. I found The Story Bridge Adventure Climb Experience and remembered a friend who lived here for a month told me about it but said he was too chicken to do it. I randomly checked tickets and there was an available ticket for 3pm. I just said yes! AND yayyyy for me. It was an amazing experience. The people in my small group...2 brothers where 1 brother surprised the other, and 2 sisters where 1 sister surprised the other…I mean…what?! Why was I there?!? Haha. I love it. They were awesome and GEMMA was AMAZING!!! So much energy and positivity and she just took us through everything with complete ease and grace. She is a fabulous story teller and was caring for us while training a new colleague…which was cool to watch. They all take our safety and the safety of every user of the bridge very seriously. The pace is easy to keep up with and the experience is unique and fun and worth the views. I mean…why not climb a mountain made of local Australian steel that is the symbol of Brisbane and is the largest steel bridge designed, fabricated and constructed in Australia by Australians. Not to mention this Story Bridge Climb is one of only three bridges you can climb in the world.  Interestingly, all three bridges just happen to be ‘Down Under’ in Australia and New Zealand.  The three are the Brisbane Story Bridge, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and the Auckland Harbour Bridge. So seriously, why wouldn’t you???

The climb was a wonderful... - The climb was a wonderful experience. My first experience of climbing a bridge. The guide could have spoken a bit slow (tough to catch the Aussie accent). The weather was good not too exerting. The view from the top is awesome. A good test for one's physical capability.

Great views and a cool experience, but beware of having to pay for photos…. - Our guide was awesome and good at keeping the group engaged and had plenty of history facts about the bridge. The views were really good and the walk not super challenging so most people could do it. All the staff are really friendly and look like the genuinely enjoy what they are doing. The only thing that stops it being 5 stars is that I feel it’s quite overpriced for what it is. Understandably, you can’t take a phone up there for your own photos, which obviously is for safety with drops, but then any photos that are taken of you, bar a group photo, which let’s be honest who wants a group photo with random strangers, is charged at $29. The price realistically should include all photos taken, as otherwise it feels a bit price gougey.
