It was an amazing birthday experience, the view from up on the roof was worth the climb. Picture perfect.

Great views especially with the sunset tour

Allow plenty of time. Was longer than we expected, but well worth doing with a birdseye view of the stadium and city and beautiful cityscape lighting up as you finish. As you can’t take phones/Go Pros etc up be prepared to pay for photo packages of you want more than one.

Twilight climb in February - Fabulous experience

Robyn_S, Feb 2024
The climb was amazing. It was informative regarding Adelaide Oval, The Drive Tennis Centre and Adelaide in general, even though I have lived in SA for 60 years. Our guide Mitch was incredible. The weather was perfect for a twilight climb. Loved everything about this experience and worth every dollar. Highly recommend to locals and tourists to Adelaide.

Terry_S, Jan 2024
The sunset. Henry the host was exceptional and safety was paramount. The history behind the scoreboard was interesting too.

Well worth the effort.

BelindaL_C, Jan 2024
The view, the history, the story, the engineering of the structures. Excellent experience and well guided. Thanks Mitchell and Liam.

Enjoying the high view

Ann_M, Jan 2024
As a cricket tragic, I had watched with envy the people on tv at the Adelaide Oval climbing the roof. Therefore, when we had a holiday to Adelaide, doing the roof climb was high on my list of priorities. I was not disappointed. The climb was wonderful. There are a lot of steps, so you need to be reasonably fit, but my husband is 78 and he managed it. We also had a lady on our tour who told us she was 75 and she was fine. We also had three kids in the group and they had a ball. The lean out is awesome fun. I will be reccomending that all my friends do this, it is just exceptional.

A stunning view of Adelaide!

Di_K, Dec 2023
The climb itself was excellent with a very knowledgeable guide. He instilled us with enough confidence to complete the dreaded lean back! We were given a mixed message on check-in time and arrived an hour early though to the wrong entry door ☹️

Great experience.

Mary_L, Oct 2023

Amazing experience

Christopher_P, Jul 2023
Our tour guide Braden was awesome. He had plenty of interesting information about the Oval to share. We really enjoyed the chance to lean back and get a once in a lifetime photo. Well worth a visit when in Adelaide.
