Blue Mountains Day Trip from Sydney with Scenic World

This full-day trip packs several of the Blue Mountains’ big sights into one easy day out from Sydney. You’ll visit Featherdale Wildlife Park, stop at Echo Point for views of the Three Sisters, and head to Scenic World for its Railway, Cableway and Skyway rides. It wraps up with a ferry cruise along the Parramatta River back to Circular Quay. It’s a good option if you want to see a lot without organising transport yourself, though lunch is at your own expense.

The day starts with pickup from selected hotels in Sydney. First up is Featherdale Wildlife Park, where you’ll see native Australian animals, then it’s on to Echo Point for the classic Three Sisters lookout. There’s time in Leura Village to buy lunch before continuing to Scenic World, where your ticket includes the Railway, Cableway and Skyway with views over Katoomba Falls and the surrounding mountains. After the road journey back, the day finishes with a ferry ride along the Parramatta River to Circular Quay. Dress for the weather, and note that luggage is not permitted on the tour.
