  • Great service

    This is a great way to get to see the sighrs. We stayed jn Katoomba but real easy to find the bus stops. Feel its a bit misleading hop on hop off as when you get off its an hour to the next bus so any stops with not much there isnt worth it. We did the honeymoon lookout walk to echo point was a nice easy walk. The drivers are friendly, helpful and jnformative. The back seat could do with a bell button for stopping and due to engine noise can be difficult to hear the announcements but overall well worth the money.

    While I was in Sydney, Australia, I went to the Blue Mountains in Katoomba. I rode the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus and went to Scenic World. I asked the Driver of the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus what stop should I explore first and he told me to explore Scenic World before the large crowds arrive. I got off at stop 7 and rode the Scenic Skyway. Rode the Scenic Railway to explore the Scenic Walkway then road the Scenic Cableway. The Blue Mountains Explorer Bus Guide said "warm, friendly family service and delicious meals" are at Café Lurline, stop 15. So the bus dropped me off at stop 15. I enjoyed lunch at Café Lurline. One employee frombCafé Lurline showed me the route to walk to Echo Point so I could see Three Sisters up close. I then got on the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus and got off at Katoomba Station. I experienced two drivers on the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus and I learned more about Blue Mountains. Thanks Blue Mountains Explorer Bus and Scenic World for a great day.

    Good value. Bus was on time and easy to navigate. Would of liked to see the route run in opposite directions so you didn’t have to ride entire loop if you chose to do an earlier stop later In the day as many stops are within walking distance of each other.

  • Disappointed and feel ripped off.

    Very disappointing and expensive for what you get. Buses only come to each stop every hour. One of the buses didn’t even come so we had to get a local bus. Honestly save money and time and just travel on local buses (that come every 15 minutes).

  • Katoomba: Lyrebird Hop On Hop Off & Scenic World

    We booked the Katoomba Lyrebird Hop On Hop Off bus and Scenic World one day passe through Get Your Guide. Upon arrival, we received a helpful booklet with full details on how the route works. We were advised to visit Scenic World as early as possible to avoid crowds, and that turned out to be great advice - it got busy quickly. The Scenic Railway was closed for scheduled maintenance, which we knew in advance, so that didn’t affect our experience. Everything else was fantastic. The views were absolutely stunning, and the bus guide was very informative throughout the tour. Overall, it was a brilliant day out and an experience I’d definitely recommend.

    The bus stops coincide with all of the sites and bush walks in and around Katoomba and Leura, and the drivers are entertaining and informative.

    Easy to book - viator sent me email with QR code. Bus driver writes date on booklet which becomes your ticket. And then called the office to get my booking code for the included Scenic World rides. Stops at convenient locations around Katoomba, Scenic World and Leura. Get off one stop, walk along the Prince Henry Cliff walk and get back on at the next stop. Runs every hour but doesnt sit waiting for the exact departure time at each stop, so best to get to your stop 5min early. Drivers are friendly and helpful. And the booklet you get is so comprehensive to make the most of your stay, inluding hiking trail information. Very impressed with this service.
