Your adventure begins at base camp, directly under the Story Bridge itself.

You’ll start your journey along the suspended walkway to the base of the southern pylon, learning about the colorful history of the Story Bridge and Brisbane as you go. From here - it’s climb time! Start to venture up through the inner Eastern bridge arm, climbing level with one of Brisbane’s busiest commute points, and then ascending straight up the south-eastern cantilever arm that stretches over the Brisbane River and reaches up into the sky. Before you know it you’re celebrating with your climb group on the summit platform, where you’ll get your bearings and hear some fun facts about the amazing 360 panoramic view before you. See Brisbane and its surroundings, including the Glass House Mountains, Moreton Bay, and the Scenic Rim. Venturing further along you’ll explore the bridge from a different angle, traveling approximately halfway across the river below before returning to the top platform for a final climb group photo before your descent back to base camp. Every climb to the top includes a group photograph, with additional individual photographs available for purchase afterwards - once your adrenaline has calmed down! See the glittering nighttime lights of Brisbane below - a unique vantage point for such a view with twilight option.

We were to spot dolphins to our way back.We really had a fun tym!!

A pleasant, smaller group (6) tour to Stradbroke was a lovely way to spend a Saturday. An informed, enthusiastic guide made the experience even better. Beautiful pristine beaches, serenity and natural surroundings made one forget about the hustle and bustle of Brisbane.

An absolutely perfect day. The events were wonderful, food delicious and staff incredible. One of my top highlights of my Australia trip.

It worked nicely. Only thing we need to set the APN settings and activate Data Roaming

Very courteous. Good explanations. Thoroughly enjoyed by all my team of 4 people.
