We liked the recorded commentary. However the guide who counted us in couldn't be bothered with being nice towards customers just spent time looking at his phone not helping me get a coffee while I had a toddler

The guide "John" was amazing. Very knowledgeable and passionate. Walling around where the athletes walk/train/prepare was an incredible experience. Reslly makes you feel like you could do it one day. The tour had a good balance of AFL and Cricket features and Encompassed memorabilia from both codes. It also touches on the stadium being used for concerts. Its such a masive stadium the 90 minutes is hard to appreciate the greatness and wonder of the place.
