Blue Mountains Special Full Day Tour With Return Harbour Cruise

Our tourguide Bruce was fantastic! He gave us a bit of history and trivias regarding the places we’d be visiting. The entrance fees for the zoo and scenic world are not included in the fee which was a good touch since some people don’t really want to participate in some of the activities. We had to hike up to some viewpoints so make sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes! Bring a big bottle of water, you can leave it at the minibus. The ride was comfortable and taking this tour was definitely better than DIY-ing it. There are specific pickup points to choose from but the drop-off would be at the pier wherein they would give you $10 for a ferry ride to circular quay.

The tour was fantastic and kudos to our guide Bruce, he made the trip interesting because of the bits and pieces of information he shared all throughout the journey. Highly recommended if you want a tour that’s bang for the buck! The tour’s well-paced, we didn’t feel that we’re in a hurry. There’s enough time allotted to each spot. You’ll also enjoy a sunset view of the Harbor Bridge and Sydney Opera House at the end of the tour!

Our family had the most wonderful day exploring the Blue Mountains with Oz Trails, & we have to give a massive shout-out to our guide, Bruce. As parents of a 7-year-old with ADHD and autism, we were initially nervous about how a full-day group tour would go. Bruce was absolutely incredible. He showed patience, never rushing, & went out of his way to engage my son in the natural surroundings at his own pace. He made my child feel completely included & understood, turning what could have been a stressful day into a positive, memorable experience. Full disclosure: I do want to give a fair warning to other travelers: while the tour is fantastic, there are added costs for some opt-in activities. As clearly shown on the itinerary, entry to both the Sydney Zoo & Scenic World are not included in the base price. We had to pay extra. So budget accordingly—but it was definitely worth the extra cost! Overall, a full, beautifully organized day. Thank you, Bruce for your kindness & expertise.

I was thrilled to see the beauty of Blue Mountains that was covered by Oz Trails planned itinerary. I would like to give a big thumbs up to the guide (and also driver at the same time). He is too good to be a guide and highly recommended!

Guiden är mycket bra. Vår guide, Les, har många intressanta historier att berätta, bland annat om att ha blivit träffad av blixten. Han förklarade hur träden överlever under olika förhållanden, berättade om lyran och om alla viktiga detaljer om turistattraktionen. Bara en sak var förvirrande under båtturen: han gav oss 10 AUD och jag använde mitt kort för att blippa på och av, men det debiterade mig 24 AUD.

Really enjoyed the day trip out to Blue Mountain & Sydney Zoo! Our guides, Les & Andre briefed us on the locations history & biology! Was a great day out!

Les is a very cheerful and highly knowledgeable guide who clearly loves his job and genuinely prioritizes his customers’ experience. He shared many fun stories throughout the trip, and his knowledge of the Blue Mountains was truly impressive, there was hardly a question he couldn’t answer. The tour was very well organized: we managed to keep the schedule without ever feeling rushed, yet we still saw an incredible number of places during this approximately 10-hour day trip. His bus was clean and comfortable, and thanks to the discounted entry tickets he arranged, the tour actually ended up being more affordable than many other options. I highly recommend this tour and would like to thank Les for such a fantastic experience.

Resan till Blue Mountains är en fantastisk utflykt och vyerna är enastående. Vår guide Bruce är fantastisk och delar med sig av många intressanta fakta och anekdoter om platserna. Ett bra alternativ är att man kan välja att delta i en aktivitet (mot extra kostnad) eller inte. Att stanna i Leura för lunch är alldeles för mycket bortkastad tid då det blir väldigt trångt med turister och platsen är mycket liten. Synd att vi hade en molnig dag som skapade mycket dis över dalen och gråa omgivningar. Dessutom upptäckte guiden i slutet av resan att biljettautomaten för båten tillbaka till staden inte fungerade och alla fick betala själva med kort (vi fick kontant återbetalning), men kontanter var värdelösa för mig då vi åker hem imorgon. Bruce borde ha tagit alla gäster tillbaka till staden med bussen, precis som vi kom. Men resan rekommenderas.

great experience altough we were cut short and didn't go to the grovetts leap. also sceneic world is not that good. but apart the host was really amazing though i forgot his name😅.

Les is the best! Seriously, the man is a tour guide, driver, historian, comedian, and apparently Mr. Lightning all rolled into one. 😂 He’s incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Definitely one of the highlights of the tour! Oh, and yeah… the tour itself was pretty great too! 😄 The Blue Mountains were absolutely spectacular and majestic, and we were lucky enough to have fantastic weather throughout the day. The views were definitely the star of the show. The two waterfalls—Katoomba Falls and Bridal Veil Falls—were a little underwhelming, though. Maybe the waterfalls were having an off day. 😂 Overall, it was a wonderful experience, made even better by an excellent guide and some truly breathtaking scenery. Would definitely recommend!
