When I visited a few years ago, it was already way over developed. There are constant bus loads of tourists, the walkways were drowning in selfie sticks. I would not pay for that "experience".

It's just not worth going to see it, better to go to any other spots along the coast.

    Just like the Three Sisters up in the Blue Mountains; just loads of Asian tourists taking a couple of selfies before hopping on the tour bus again. Not supporting local businesses, not taking a look at Katoomba Falls or the gorgeous botanic gardens, just getting it over with as fast as possible.

    At that point you could just get a greenscreen and chromakey yourself in at home, heck of a lot cheaper...

    These tour bus companies are a disservice to our entire tourism industry.

    I'm not sure if I blame them more than the people who go on these tours, though, for some people it's literally just "been there, done that".

    It’s absolutely worth going to see it. The drive itself is beautiful, and the remaining apostles are well worth seeing no matter how many people are there. The helicopter rides are worth it as well.
