I had an early morning full summit walk with our lead Darlington (he rated 5 stars). The day is very efficient and safe but does feel a bit like you are in jail (line up here, these are you overalls, turn and face the person next to you, one at a time through the metal detector etc.). The walk itself is great, a balance of wonderful views and a lot of history (eg the opera house was based on an orange!). It s not too stressful (all 1400 steps) and you only need to be moderately fit. The reason I scored the experience 3 stars and not higher is purely down to value for money. At $333 dollars for 1.5 hour on the bridge (2 hours getting ready and removing the gear) plus another $29.99 for a basic picture (although you are encouraged to buy more) it is not great value for money. Yes you get a small group photo and a very very poor quality cap, but for me the money is just too much to warrant VFM.
