BridgeClimb Sydney is an Australian tourist attraction. The company provides climb experiences to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Over 3.5 million visitors from over 137 different countries and territories have climbed the southern half of the bridge.Four different types of climbs are offered, as of December 2017. The BridgeClimb, which was initially the only option, takes guests to the top of the bridge along the upper arch in a round-trip that takes over three hours, including preparation time. BridgeClimb Express guides guests to the heart of the steel bridge and then to the top in just over 2 hours. BridgeClimb Sampler was introduced in 2014, for those who are short on time or concerned about heights: in just one hour and a half, climbers ascend the inner arch to a unique vantage point half way to the top. Finally, the Mandarin Climb, introduced in January 2012, follows the standard BridgeClimb or BridgeClimb Express route and is led by a Mandarin-speaking guide. Mandarin Climbs are available daily at 10am and 3pm. The different route options are available in time-of-day variants: dawn, day, twilight and night. BridgeClimb also offers special climbs for some of Sydney’s events, like the Vivid Climb, the Ferrython Climb on Australia Day, or the Anzac Day Dawn Climb.There have been over 4,000 proposals at the summit of the bridge and couples also have the option to get married on the bridge, 134 m above Sydney Harbour. The experience has also attracted many famous actors, musicians and members of royalty, including cast members of The Biggest Loser, Kylie Minogue, Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman, Robert De Niro, Prince Harry and more recently Oprah Winfrey and Zoolander .[7].Anyone over the age of eight years and in good health can climb. There is no maximum age, with the oldest climber being 100 years old. BridgeClimb's most frequent climber is 85-year-old Lloyd Poulton, who had done the climb 50 times as at August 2012.
