Itinerary

Blue Mountains Day Tour Itinerary

The tour departs from Sydney bright and early to travel to our first stop of the day, Sydney Zoo. Here you can watch and interact with some of Australia’s best-known wildlife including koalas, wombats, wombats and more. You’ll also get to feed kangaroos and join a complimentary guided talk about local Indigenous communities.

We then continue our journey into the Blue Mountains. The dense forest and incredible views all around will leave you in awe! You truly have to view the Blue Mountains in person to fully grasp how vast it is. Echo Point is the perfect spot to view the iconic Three Sisters rock formation. You’ll get to enjoy panoramic views of the Blue Mountains.

In the afternoon, you will have time to enjoy a self-guided hike on the Prince Henry Cliff Walk. As you make your way across the clifftops, you will have plenty of opportunities to take in the unparalleled views of the Blue Mountains. Some of the best lookouts include Orphan Rock Lookout, Katoomba Falls Lookout, Cliff View Lookout, and Juliet’s Balcony. An alternate option is to enjoy the Scenic World rides (own cost) instead of the self-guided hike.

Conclude your day at Homebush Ferry Terminal. From there, you can book a ferry ticket (own cost) with a trip up to Sydney Harbour. After a day of adventure, it’s the perfect way to unwind on a ferry along the Parramatta River back to Circular Quay city centre.
