It was an awesome tour.. Though the Train service at Scenic world is not available on that day, the tour guide Mr.Bruce took as around the places very patiently. He was very uptodate on the tour and his commentary was very wonderful and useful. He was very accommodative to all tourists in the bus. (has waited for those who are walking slow) We had sufficient time in every place. My special thanks to Bruce. Overall Blue Mountain tour one has to visit and enjoy the nature's beauty while comes to Sydney.
Superb!

Les- WOW you are just amazing, what a tour guide!!!!! On this particular day trip to the blue mountains the weather was pretty atrocious, it was misty, cold and raining, which is obviously not ideal when trying to see the views of the blue mountains, but despite this Les still made sure that we had an incredible day and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, he was so so informative and I felt like I learnt so much from him whilst we were making our way to the blue mountains and due to the fact that all viewpoints had no visibility he decided to take us on a lovely hour long hike instead and again we learnt so much, just can’t express what a great guy Les is and he completely made our experience!!!! -Thank you again, from Issy and Ellie ;)
A great day out

Bruce was a great tour guide, very informative and helpful. It was a busy day but very well organised and the Blue Mountains are stunning. The zoo trip was much better than I expected (I'm not normally keen on zoos), the native Australian animals were so interesting. We really enjoyed it!
The information Is not clear , es really more expensive

We had to pay the cable car to be able to see the rain Forrest because ir was raining, that wasn't on our plans! You have to tell that in the information. So the trip doesn't includes in price either the zoo and cable car.
Informative, educational and spectacular

Decent day out but not lots to see unless you enjoy the zoo and similar views of the mountains at each stop. Boat trip at the end is a nice end to the day but overall it's quite expensive for what you get. Bruce our guide was was engaging and very informative but be prepared for a dressing down if he hears something he doesn't like and hopefully you'll enjoy his personal taste in music the whole time you're in the coach!
