About this tour
A private nine-to-eleven-hour tour combining the Blue Mountains' most rewarding stops with wildlife encounters and your choice of finale. Your local driver steers you through Featherdale Wildlife Park to meet kangaroos and koalas, then guides you to Echo Point's Three Sisters rock formation, Scenic World's cableway system, and several clifftop vantage points—Eaglehawk, Hildass, Boar's Head, Cahill's—before wrapping up either with a river cruise past the Opera House or a direct return to your hotel.
Highlights
- Hand-feed kangaroos; hold a koala at Featherdale
- Scenic World cableway with wide valley panoramas
- Three Sisters stone formation and Aboriginal history
- Four distinct clifftop lookouts in one morning
- Flexible finish: boat to Circular Quay or drive home
- Private vehicle avoids tour-bus crowds throughout
What to expect
You'll be picked up in an air-conditioned luxury vehicle and driven to Featherdale first, where you'll have unrushed time with native wildlife. From there, the route winds through the Blue Mountains via scenic stops and Leura village before hitting Scenic World's three rides—cableway, railway, and cableway return. Between these main attractions, your guide will stop at various lookouts, each offering different perspectives of the gorge and valleys. Lunch is on your own. The final leg branches: either board a ferry from the base and cruise back to Sydney Harbour, or settle into the vehicle for a relaxed drive home.
Good to know
All park and Scenic World entry fees, parking, and transport are covered. Bring your own lunch or eat en route—options exist in Leura and Katoomba. Service animals are welcome. Prams fit in the vehicle; infant seats provided. No extreme fitness required; walking between car parks is minimal.
