The climb at Adelaide oval was so much better than expected. The views are stunning, the climb itself relatively easy with plenty of stops along the way to soak up the views in all directions. The guide was great and full of knowledge about not just the oval but all of Adelaide and the history. I felt very safe in the harness and the staff gave clear instructions about the safely. Overall it was a great experience that I’ll be recommending to friends and family. The only down side was that on top of the price which is high but expected you then had to pay extra for the photos taken on the climb. It is not permitted to take you own phone/camera (which is great for safety but also to enjoy it without looking through a screen) but the prices of the photo packages are way to expensive for the quality of photo. I just think ALL photos could be included in ticket price.

My husband and I have visted the Adelaide Oval multiple times but were interested in learning a bit more and seeing the oval from a different perspective. The Roof Climb was excellent with some fun challenges along the way. We really enjoyed the experience and at all times felt very safe. The guides were incredibly welcoming, friendly and knowlegable. I highly recommend this experience for locals and tourists.

Great guides to help you from start (when you get all your safety gear on) to the very finish. Very informative about Adelaide Oval and all the surrounding areas. Such a great experience and you get to see Adelaide Oval and the pretty city of Adelaide from a whole different perspective.
