Overview

Escape the city and explore the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains—less than two hours from Sydney. This full-day tour blends nature, culture, and discovery through dramatic landscapes and hidden gems. Spot native wildlife, walk beneath towering cliffs through eucalyptus forests and fern-filled gullies, to arrive at a secluded waterfall. Admire the legendary Three Sisters and gain insight into Aboriginal culture through respectful storytelling. Pause for lunch in Leura, known for its leafy streets, artisan cafés, and oversized savory pies—hearty, delicious, and perfect for a midday break. Visit a wildlife park to encounter kangaroos, koalas, wombats, and more. Time permitting, enjoy a brief detour through Sydney Olympic Park, home of the 2000 Summer Games. Take the opportunity to skip the afternoon traffic and cruise on the ferry back to the city, then walk to your accommodation at your own pace.
