Explore the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park with over one million hectares of dramatic cliffs, unspoiled bushland, deep canyons and lush rainforest.
Visit the famous Three Sisters rock formation up close from Echo Point before arriving at Scenic World where you can witness the vastness of the Blue Mountains and join the optional rides - Scenic Railway, Cableway or Skyway (own expense). These rides are a great way to see the steep valleys and canyons and follow the boardwalk along the valley floor. Explore the leafy village of Leura where you will have free time for lunch (own expense) at one of the local cafés with time to wander the picturesque streets. Next, immerse yourself in an Aussie Bush Safari at Sydney Zoo. See dingoes, koalas, wombats, Tasmanian devils and echidnas in a cage free environment in the Australian Precinct. Kangaroos, wallabies and emus roam free for guests to interact with along the level pathways that lead to the Bungarribee Dreaming Experience which is delivered by Aboriginal guides. Visit the underground nocturnal and reptile house and make sure not to miss the native aquarium with its underwater shark viewing. Return to Sydney through the suburb of Homebush, the venue of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games where you will have the opportunity to catch a river cruise back to the city along the Parramatta River (own expense). If you do not wish to join the ferry, the coach will travel back to the city
