it was worth going. our guide was amazing and had so much knowledge and experience. We didn't feel like we were climbing the roof.

Highly recommend this experience. Lucas our guide was great - definitely would not cross him and his safety instructions 🤣 Seriously, his knowledge of all things Adelaide oval (and South Australia really!) was awesome - we learnt lots! We did this on a 34 degree day so it was really hot, perhaps a for a cooler day if you can 🤣
