Coses per fer a Blue Mountains

This was the Blue Mountains tour, and it was easily one of the most satisfying itineraries of my trip to Australia! 💙🤍🇦🇺 We had a jam-packed day, starting from Featherdale Wildlife Park all the way to Scenic World in the Blue Mountains. :) At Featherdale Wildlife Park, it was so wonderful to see and interact up close with animals that can only be found in Australia! At Scenic World, I originally went expecting some fun amusement park rides, but I was so surprised to learn that they were actually used to transport coal back in the day! It was even more shocking to realize they operated at such dizzying heights under far worse conditions than we have now. Also, thanks to the truly gorgeous weather today (clear skies right after yesterday's rain), the alcohol from the eucalyptus trees interacting with the air created that distinctive blue haze, allowing us to see the Blue Mountains quite literally living up to their name! The fresh air and unique scent of nature were so soothing to the soul. ㅎㅎ Beyond just visiting a famous tourist spot, hearing about the culture, history, and stories of Australia really made me fall more and more in love with the country! Plus one more thing!! The grand finale of today's tour!! Our guide's very own special viewpoint in the mountains!! It was such a peaceful and wonderful place to fully soak in untouched nature. Walking on the actual soil, brushing past the trees, and touching the rocks—when would I ever get to experience something like this once I'm back in Korea?! (And our guide is basically a professional photographer, too ㅎㅎ / I haven't transferred the photos yet since they're on their second phone, which is such a pity ㅠ) The bottom line is!!!! I highly, highly recommend the Blue Mountains tour to anyone planning a trip to Australia 🤍 (On top of that, our guide hosts a star-gazing sunset tour? Although I heard they only joined us for today...! Such a meaningful coincidence! So, as a little tip, I learned that for a sunset tour, the weather shouldn't be too clear or too cloudy! If it's cloudy, the clouds block the stars, and if it's too clear (= moonlight), the moonlight washes out the stars so they aren't visible. When we visited on October 24th, the moon phase was at 99(?), meaning tomorrow was almost a full moon! It would be great to keep things like this in mind when planning your visit!) However, since everything ultimately comes down to a bit of luck on the day, I wish you good luck~ 🍀

The tour today with our guide Kelvin was so informative and fun! First, I wanted to check my physical condition before deciding on the tour, so I booked it the morning of. The reservation was confirmed quickly, and the meeting point was easy to find! On the way to Featherdale, he gave us detailed explanations of the zoo and the animals' characteristics, and let us know where they gathered, which was great! Personally, I liked it waaaay more than Taronga because we could see the animals up close, freely feed and touch quokkas, kangaroos, mountain goats, and more! Highly, highly recommended...!!! While heading to the Blue Mountains, it rained, so our guide kept checking the weather conditions while explaining things, took us to the best viewpoints first, and thanks to that, we were able to see the mountains with a clear view!!! For dinner, he gave detailed and honest recommendations for restaurants, and when he asked each of us which restaurant we wanted to go to after getting off and showed us the locations, I was so moved..😢😍 Thanks to him, we saw the sunset, and even though we weren't originally supposed to see the stars, he found a clear sky to show them to us and took so many pretty pictures, which I am truly grateful for! Personally, I think the number of participants and the guide are the most important factors in a tour, but since there were fewer than 20 people, it was easy for everyone to get around together. Our guide always smiled, had a great voice, and really tried to help us get great photos—he was truly the best!:) Considering that there is no zoo admission fee from morning to evening, I think this is a super-duper cost-effective tour! (When I compared prices everywhere, this was the cheapest!) Thank you so much for all your hard work, guide!👍🏻

Super lucky to get the brightest and welcoming guide Ric, and Nish for bringing us on this wholesome day out. Sydney zoo has the cutest koala for u to take a snap with, and a huge range of animals (mostly out of Lion King haha). Scenic world was fun as well, not to mention the various viewpoints along blue mountain.

La recollida va ser des del nostre hotel, cosa que va ser molt convenient. El nostre guia, en Perry, és molt amable, ja que pot parlar cantonès i anglès. Vam gaudir del nostre viatge a Blue Mountain, ja que vam poder fer els 3 recorreguts panoràmics. Ens va encantar. No només això, sinó que vam fer moltes fotos durant aquest viatge. Va ser molt memorable.

Una gran experiència. Vaig gaudir molt del zoo de Sydney. Les Blue Mountains també són boniques, però tant de bo hagués tingut més temps per poder explorar el lloc amb més calma. El temps que vam tenir no va ser suficient per gaudir del lloc, només el just per provar les tres atraccions.

Tot va valer la pena… Des del nostre guia turístic, sempre ben informat, amable, dolç i amb sentit de l'humor, fins a totes les parades que vam fer durant el dia. Aquest és un tour imprescindible i ens encantaria tornar-lo a fer la propera vegada 😊

Jayden was a splendid guide! The tour was informative & Jayden was very helpful throughout the tour. The tour route is beautiful as well, the Blue Mountains’ vast scenery was really magnificent! Jayden also had good recommendations throughout the tour! The lunch spot was also much better than expected - the thai food is good! Overall we had a splendid time. :)

Visitar les Blue Mountains és una visita obligada quan es ve a Sydney. El parc nacional i el telefèric panoràmic, el ferrocarril i el funicular són increïbles. La vista és impressionant! El temps és fred a mesura que vam arribar a una altitud més alta, però a tots ens va encantar. Una experiència inoblidable. El nostre guia turístic, en Perry, és fantàstic. És molt amable. Viatjar en un cotxe petit de luxe és recomanable per a aquells que visiten amb una família petita, probablement menys de 10 persones, perquè és sense complicacions. No cal esperar massa temps per a altres persones. Podem moure'ns ràpid i completar tots els punts de control aviat. Si esteu planejant viatjar a les Blue Mountains, assegureu-vos de passar-hi tot el dia, perquè hi anireu tan aviat com a les 8 i tornareu a les 6. És una experiència completa. L'itinerari és bo. En Perry ens va portar a tastar el seu increïble gelat en un dels pobles de la zona de Katoomba. En general, és un viatge de 5 ⭐. Gràcies, Perry. Gràcies, KLOOK, per aquest paquet fantàstic. Sens dubte, buscaré KLOOK per a qualsevol paquet increïble.

Pretty easy to redeem and there is free parking. However the discount on klook is not that much. If I buy it at the counter it will cost about the same as klook.
