“This was a full day of wonderful experiences!! The Blue Mountain scenery is spectacular. Scenic World and the "rides" were great. Our guide, Kat, was so friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and all of Australia. I cant imagine any other guide as thorough and pleasant as she was. Its a long day, but didn't feel like it because she kept us engaged and interested, even when driving on the Motorway”

Review of Sydney’s Blue Mountains day tour with Scenic World rides, Three Sisters views, lunch, wildlife park, transport, and practical tips.

“Experienced ravelers will not want to go on a tour like this. Two tourist traps and an overcrowded bus, where several passengers including myself had to sit in seats with wheel hulls that prevented feet from reaching the floor. Hordes of tourists taking photos and blocking the route and view. Nothing special about the food available for lunch. This was an extremely expensive day at almost AU$400, and the gift shops had loads of tacky items.

Everything is provided for our convenience: snacks, Wi-Fi, drinks, coats, power banks… And the guide has great jokes, interesting bits of lore, and good tips for future adventures. He even dropped each of us off at our hotel at the end. 100% recommend 👌 Thank you Dave for this great day !”
