Fantastic 5.0
This was a very satisfying tour. Thanks to our guide, Soonkwon Lee, we had a truly wonderful day. First, starting from Sea Life, he shared fascinating historical stories about each place we visited and provided useful information for our trip in a very engaging way. And when we asked questions, he answered them all without hesitation, so even though it's early in our Australia trip, we're starting with a lot of valuable information! At Featherdale, we didn't do an 'open run' but we got to do everything we wanted. We took photos with koalas, fed wallabies and quokkas, and captured all the videos we wanted. An hour and a half was plenty of time to freely explore Featherdale! Our Blue Mountains tour was also very satisfying for me. We were supposed to see stars, but since there was a forecast for clouds today, he flexibly adjusted the schedule. Although it was an early dinner, he took us to a really great restaurant, and everyone had a good time. If the stars aren't clearly visible, he knows several spots and will make sure you get to see them somehow! Overall, I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get great photos, as he takes so many pictures to ensure everyone gets at least one good shot. He also kept the atmosphere lively throughout the tour, which helped the tour members, who were strangers at first, become friendly and chat a lot. I recommend this to everyone, especially honeymooners. There were three couples on our tour this time. This is the first time I've ever written such a detailed review. No regrets!

Abbey was awesome guide. Very articulate, friendly and knowledgeable. Despite the horrible fog and cold weather as we could literally see nothing, I think most of us enjoyed the commaradie of each other judging from all the laughters and ‘amazing’ views of 3 brothers or sisters whichever as we saw plenty of kangaroos, cockatoos and enjoyed aussie jokes all the way. Coastwarriors team well done! will be back with more adventures with you guys next trip!

This is suitable for first-time to Sydney and has never been to Blue Mountain. I have been to Blue Mountain many times but have never been to Wethworth Falls, it just so happens that there is this tour visiting Wethworth Falls, so I tried to join this tour. The tour guide and driver explained in detail from the Anzac bridge to the rocks on the blue mountain. Actually, the sunset at Blue Mountain seems ordinary. I recommend seeing the sunset at Twelve Apostles on Melbourne's Great Ocean Road.

I had a wonderful experience on the this blue mountain tour! The views were absolutely amazing, especially during sunset and stargazing 🌅🌌. Our tour guide, Jin, was very friendly, helpful, and considerate. Even though I couldn’t speak Korean, he took some of his time to explain important information to us in English and made sure we could understand and enjoy the experience as well🤩👍👍 Overall, it was a really beautiful and fun experience! Definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to enjoy the amazing views of the Blue Mountains. 😊✨

Wanting to visit the Blue Mountains and Featherdale Wildlife Park, I searched around and decided to purchase the highly-reviewed Zigzag Tour. Departing at 8 AM, it was a relaxed start, and riding in a large bus made the journey cool and comfortable. It was quite unique to see our guide handling both the driving and guiding simultaneously. Our friendly young guide gave entertaining explanations and even took photos for us at every viewpoint, making it an enjoyable trip in many ways. At Featherdale Wildlife Park, the koalas and penguins were so cute, and seeing the kangaroos lounging around was particularly amusing and gave off a peaceful vibe. The Blue Mountains allowed us to truly experience the vast and magnificent beauty of nature. The Three Sisters, sculpted by nature, lived up to high expectations and were breathtaking. Furthermore, the Scenic Railway at Scenic World added a unique thrill and was the highlight of the tour. I plan to visit Sydney with my family next time, and I definitely want to come back to the Blue Mountains. It was such a satisfying trip that I would definitely book with Zigzag Tour again in the future. I am sincerely grateful to Young, our guide, for making my trip to Sydney even more memorable.

The pick up was from our hotel which was super convenient. Our guide Perry is very friendly as he is able to speak Cantonese and English. We enjoyed our trip to blue mountain as we are able to take all 3 scenic rides. We really love it. Not only that, we took a lot photos during this trip. It was very memorable.

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.

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. :)

What to know before visiting Blue Mountains

Quick snapshot of Katoomba and what to expect

Katoomba is a mountain escape known for outdoor activities, scenic tours and cable-car style experiences — Tours, Cable cars and Outdoor & sports activities lead bookings on Klook. Demand peaks in July and falls away dramatically toward November, giving the town a clear high-season rhythm.

When to visit for crowds and prices

Klook data shows July as the busiest month and November as the quietest. Prices vary through the year: they spike in December and drift lower through the spring into June, with June typically the cheapest month on Klook and December typically the priciest. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, aim for the quieter months around June; for the full peak-season atmosphere, visit in July. Note that prices and demand mostly move together around the high season, though December’s prices jump even as demand is lower than July.

Tips for travellers

Most travellers here book about nine days ahead on average, with bookings still possible at short notice (last-minute availability commonly appears within a couple of days). If your trip is flexible you can often arrange activities a few days out, but if you plan to travel in July or December it’s wise to lock in key tours and cable-car experiences a few weeks earlier. Use Klook to compare options and secure bookings for the dates you prefer.
