4Blue Mountains were great, driver not
Trip was really great. Driver was difficult to understand and never stopped talking. Just talking- after providing relevant info, he went on to the US debit, Mt Everest being in China, etc. He stated he didn’t want us to go to sleep on him. Also, we couldn’t be dropped off where we were pick up- which we didn’t find out until the end of the day.

About Sydney
Sydney wraps around a glittering natural harbour, with a famous sail-roofed opera house, golden surf beaches and an easygoing outdoor life.
The Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge face each other across Circular Quay, where ferries come and go. The Rocks, the old colonial quarter, has sandstone pubs and weekend markets, and the Royal Botanic Garden curves around Farm Cove to Mrs Macquarie's Chair for the classic view of both landmarks.
