Stephen and Saed (sp?) were awesome. The zoo was so nice that you could enter before the zoo opens to the public so only a few people in the zoo. The Red cable car was really fun. They have USB plug in for the bus to charge so make sure you bring your cable. The group was small. The ride is kind of long on the way back so I would bring headphone and download a movie. I would highly recommend this tour. It is quite beautiful. I would definitely go back to Blue Mountain. Worth the trip away from Sydney proper. I have been to Sydney several times and never went to Blur Mountain. I will definitely return

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Max as our tour guide during our trip to the Blue Mountains and Sydney Zoo today. Max was not just our driver but also an incredible storyteller and guide who made the whole journey engaging and memorable. From the moment we got on the vehicle, Max’s friendly vibe and deep knowledge of the area set the tone for a fantastic day. His stories were captivating, blending history, culture, and fun facts that brought each location to life. He was attentive to everyone’s needs, ensuring we were comfortable, and kept the group energized throughout the tour. I loved how he shared stories about aboriginal history and the tale of the Three Sisters while driving. We’re so grateful for the experience—thanks Max for making our vacation unforgettable!

Had a fantastic day trip to the Blue Mountains today with driver and tour guide Max. He took great care of us and provided an excellent commentary along the way. The coach was very comfortable. The views were breathtaking and so beautiful. We had time at Scenic World to ride the cable car over the Jamison Valley and then take the scenic cable car down to the rainforest, where we enjoyed the extensive boardwalk. Then back up to the cafe and shop on the thrilling 52 degrees railway—such fun and a great way to spend a day.

Start your day early and reach Scenic World before the big crowds, riding the railway, skyway, and cable car with wide-open valley views.

Hear Aboriginal stories and fun local tales from guides who keep the journey lively while sharing history of the Blue Mountains.

Visit lookouts like Echo Point, Lincoln’s Rock, and Cahill’s, each offering dramatic views of the Three Sisters and Jamison Valley.

Explore charming Leura village during a relaxed lunch stop, with time to browse bakeries, shops, and local cafés.

Meet Australian wildlife at Sydney Zoo, from kangaroo and emu feeding to seeing wombats, Tasmanian devils, and koalas up close.

Everything! Stuart was very informative and willing to answer questions. The bus was comfy. The other guests were engaging. The wildlife at the zoo and otherwise was wonderful. I would have liked more time at the wildlife park.
