Itinerary

  1. We begin early, leaving the beautiful city of Sydney behind as we head west. Around 40 minutes later we arrive at our first stop: Featherdale Sydney Wildlife Park. This is the home to the largest collection of Australian native animals in the world, with over 2,000 animals on site. Featherdale is renowned for its close-up wildlife encounters. Here, you can hand-feed friendly Kangaroos, take a professional photo with a cute and loveable Koala, snap a selfie with the “happiest animal on earth” the Quokka and meet Wombats, Tasmanian Devils and more. You’ll also see the vibrant colours of Australia’s native birdlife, including Emus, Cassowaries, and laughing Kookaburras. For those excited to explore Australia’s wilder side, some of the country’s most famously “scary” creatures are also on display including Dingoes, Crocodiles, Snakes, and Spiders.

    1.3 hAdmission included

  2. A highlight of the day is our visit to Wentworth Falls, one of the most impressive waterfalls in the region. The falls plunge nearly 300 metres in total, making them among the tallest in the Blue Mountains and a true standout of the tour. Wentworth Falls is famous for its undercliff walk, a sheltered and scenic trail that winds beneath massive sandstone overhangs along the Jamison Valley. It is considered to be one of the most beautiful walks in the Blue Mountains, offering dramatic perspectives and constantly changing views. On clear days, the lookouts provide sweeping panoramas stretching more than 50 kilometres across the valley. Bushwalking is a classic Australian experience, and there are several walking options here to suit different energy levels. Please note that the area does include stairs and as the saying goes, what goes down must come back up. But the effort is well worth it, especially with lunch waiting at our next stop.

    1.5 h

  3. We then visit Leura Village, widely regarded as the prettiest village in the Blue Mountains. Elegant, leafy, and full of character, Leura is known for its charming main street and relaxed mountain atmosphere. Enjoy free time to have lunch at one of the many cafés, patisseries, or tea rooms, browse boutique shops and bookstores, or simply wander and soak up the peaceful mountain surroundings.

    1 h

  4. The afternoon brings you to Echo Point, the Blue Mountains' most famous lookout. Bask in the golden light as it illuminates the Three Sisters and casts a mesmerizing blue haze across the valley.

    30 min

  5. Before returning to Sydney, stretch your legs at Cahill’s Lookout and Boars Head, two final breath-taking views over the megalong valley to cap off your day. Enjoy the flexibility to customize your stops and make this tour truly your own.

    15 min

  6. Led by passionate, knowledgeable and local guides who genuinely love what they do, you’ll travel in a comfortable luxury vehicle designed for a relaxed and enjoyable day. This tour delivers an unforgettable Blue Mountains experience from start to finish.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Sydney: Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Sydney Harbour.
