Here are the specifics of each tour:

Blue Mountains, Scenic World + Sydney Zoo (10.5 Hours)

Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Sydney city centre at the scheduled time. After a drive of approximately 1.5 hours, we will make our first stop in the village of Glenbrook, allowing you to stretch your legs and enjoy a coffee.

Next, we’ll journey to Echo Point, where you can admire the breathtaking views of the iconic Three Sisters rock formation and delve into its fascinating history while enjoying the sweeping vistas of the Jamison Valley!

The excursion continues at Scenic World, where you can experience the excitement of three thrilling attractions: the Scenic Railway, noted as the world's steepest passenger train; the Scenic Skyway, which glides gracefully through the ancient rainforest; and the renowned cable car that presents stunning panoramic views of the majestic Blue Mountains.

Following this, we will visit the Katoomba Cascades Waterfalls, where you can wander along well-maintained pathways and viewing platforms, taking in the enchanting sight of water cascading through lush foliage. A brief stop at Cahill’s Lookout will provide a picturesque view of the Megalong Valley.

We’ll then proceed to the delightful town of Leura, known for its charming tree-lined streets and quaint boutiques. Here, you will have one hour of free time to explore and perhaps enjoy a meal at one of the town's inviting cafés or restaurants.

In the afternoon, the tour takes us to the renowned Sydney Zoo, where you will be immersed in the mesmerizing world of Australian wildlife. Take the opportunity to feed kangaroos and get close to koalas and wombats, along with the chance to take a photo with a koala!

We’ll cap off this exciting day with a relaxing ferry ride on Sydney Harbour, sailing beneath the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge and concluding near the magnificent Opera House. After 10.5 hours of exploration, we’ll bid farewell at Circular Quay.
