You guys NEVER showed up!!! We waited for over an hour & 15 minutes & no one showed. ( other tours did) We found a taxi guy to take us at twice the price but the 31st was our only day here to do it
Awesome adventure. The wildlife park is sssoooooo great. Seeing koalas and petting and feeding Kangaroos. Plus you get to see so many more native wildlife. The mountains are good too. Just be ready to go down a hell of a lot of stairs and then climb back up them. I was gassed at the end. Scenic world was great too but just keep an eye on your watch cause we ended up missing the cable car ride which was the best I think. All in all great way to see all the fun stuff.
Many wonderful things to see and live with two funny characters - Mac and Ali- that gave a bonus to the trip. I highly recommend, taking the option that leaves earlier is a very good decision ;) ... of the landscapes, sites and attractions I will just say THEY ARE SPECTACULAR!!!... Very well organized... don't hesitate... it's them ;)
It was a truly a great experience!!! Diana (Di) was wonderful and charming as a guide. We wish we had more tome at Featherdale and ScenicWorld but Loncoln rock is a must see viewpoint!
It was my husband’s birthday and we decided to celebrate it together taking a day tour to Blue Mountains. The day tour was very well organised. The driver/guide Carol’s explanations about the Featherdale Zoo and Blue Mountains were very informative and helpful. We had a happy and great day together with Carol and the others from the group. The atmosphere within the organisation and the group was really amazing. Carol is a very good driver and also a very good guide. I will recommend this trip to my friends and family.
Fun day trip to the Blue Mountains! I chose this day trip because it included tickets to Scenic World. The stop at Featherdale was fun, though I enjoyed my visit at a different wildlife park a little more. The Blue Mountains were beautiful and our guide Michael took us to some look out points for incredible photos! Michael was very nice, but he didn't give much information or fun facts about things while we were driving. The bus was comfortable, however I did not see any charging ports for phones. Overall, I still had a good time.
Love the trip. Michael was incredible and very knowledgeable about the area. The transport was really comfortable and the stops we made were brilliant thanks so much.
Amazing views and places to go to but tour is really just booking transport A2B and park entrance - all info is sourced independently
I called to reschedule my trip 1 day in advance and I was told that is all booked for the day I requested . Which was a lie. They had availability on Viator site up to the morning of the day I wanted the trip . It was cloudy and rainy and we couldn’t see any of the great scenery . No guide , just the driver who did not explain anything. ZERO !! Our trip was in total silence which is unacceptable. So , it was a waste of a lot of money !!! Look for another company w the option to cancel and check the weather . If it is cloudy and rainy do not go !!
Awesome day and sites, and tour guide was very accommodating and engaging! Well worth it to see more of Australian landscape.
