Efficient booking process but driver was very skillful and informative. Plenty if options to get off and explore different sights along way and well explained. The Scenic Park was the highlight and an awesome experience. So glad we left on the first route as it became very crowded as day progressed. The Blue Mountains are truly an amazing sight and so glad we chose to explore it this way.

A great day out in the Blue Mountains using Head Out to book the Hop on Hop Off Bus and Scenic World passes. We trained out to Katoomba from Sydney City and everything ran smoothly to enjoy a memorable day out visiting a number of the tracks and viewing areas. Highly recommend.

Scenic work was fantastic, very easy to follow. Professional helpful stuff. Worth every penny 😊 However hop on & hop off bus we did not find useful 🙁 Waiting one hour for a bus to wasn't convenient at all. Eventually we used a public bus.
