Your first port of call will be at Echo Point, where you will have the closest & best view of the Three Sisters. You will be able to witness the blue haze and the vast expanse of the Jamison Valley, and experience for yourself the raw magic the Blue Mountains creates. You’ll have the option of ordering breakfast or a coffee (at your own expense) while enjoying the amazing views.
Next, visit Scenic World (included in the price of the tour) and dare yourself to ride the steepest railway in the world. The trains drive down with an incline of 52-64 degrees, but the views from the top are also spectacular. The Scenic Cableway & Skyway offers magnificent views of the Three Sisters and the Valley. Your tour guide will then take you down to the valley floor whilst explaining the area and coal mine.
You will then head to Katoomba Falls Cascade, with great photo opportunities at this beautiful waterfall. You can also gain breathtaking views of either Jamison Valley or Megalong Valley away from the crowds in a private location.
Pause for a hot, filling lunch and choose from a 6-menu option that includes vegetarian choices, as well as a glass of Australian beer, wine, soft drink, tea or coffee.
Then head back to Sydney, with a stop at the suburb of Doonside to visit Featherdale Wildlife Park. This multi award-winning park has the world’s largest collection of Australian native animals, including emus, wombats, Tasmanian devils, crocodiles, and countless numbers of bird species. You can also feed the baby wallabies.
Your trip to Sydney is not complete without a private water taxi on Parramatta River to Darling Harbor or Circular Quay. You will travel under the Harbor Bridge and past the Opera House before disembarking at Circular Quay where your tour will conclude at approximately 17:00 (depending on traffic and ferry).
