Full Description

Join our all inclusive Blue Mountains day tour with a small group and enjoy the company of a local, experienced guide as you spend the day exploring the natural beauty of the Blue Mountains, Scenic World and surrounding areas. This tour is brimming with family-friendly activities, has everything included and promises to deliver an unforgettable day!

Your exclusive Blue Mountains adventure begins with a private pick-up, either from your Sydney CBD hotel or directly from your cruise ship at White Bay Cruise Terminal or the Overseas Passenger Terminal – perfect for those with limited time in port. With the flexibility of a private tour, we’ll set off westward at a time that suits your group, ensuring you enjoy the very best of the Blue Mountains at your own pace. Along the way, your highly rated guide will tailor the day to your group’s interests, sharing expert knowledge while you travel through stunning mountain ranges into the very heart of this UNESCO World Heritage-listed region. Take in awe-inspiring views at carefully selected lookout points, including the famous Three Sisters and hidden vantage points only accessible to small groups. Enjoy peaceful guided walks to waterfalls, cascades, and spectacular lookouts away from the crowds, breathing in the fresh eucalyptus air while learning the fascinating stories of the region. With your Scenic World passes, you’ll ride the world’s steepest railway, glide across the valley on the Skyway, descend into the rainforest by cableway, and take a guided boardwalk through the lush rainforest.

Your group will enjoy a chef-prepared lunch at a charming mountain venue, with flexible menu options catering to all dietary requirements including Vegan, Vegetarian, Gluten Free, and Halal. Afterwards, you’ll have your wildlife experience – choosing between Featherdale Wildlife Park or Sydney Zoo. Both offer unforgettable encounters with Australia’s iconic animals, where you can see koalas up close and even hand-feed kangaroos. The day concludes with a relaxing river cruise along the Parramatta River, returning to Sydney Harbour in style. Glide under the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge before arriving at Circular Quay Wharf, where your private Blue Mountains tour concludes at approximately 5:00pm.

Special Offer: We’re delighted to share a special post-tour offer available to our guests, in partnership with Pony Dining The Rocks – just a brisk walk from where your tour ends, enjoy a complimentary drink with the purchase of your main meal.

We are the #1 Rated Tour in Australia because of our commitment to quality, seamless logistics, and authentic connection. See why travellers choose Anderson Tours.

The tour guide Kunal was great. He was very friendly and was incredibly knowledgeable about the History of Australia, the animals and of course the Blue Mountains. Scenery and Lunch was fantastic aswell.

Patrick

I had an amazing time with our tour guide Rin. Very funny, smart, explained well and we avoided crowded areas with some good techniques. Worth the price.

Inna De Mey

We had the pleasure of joining Ron's tour on Dec 29. She is an excellent tour guide who gave us a memorable day. Rin is great at herding a diverse group, anticipating issues and time management.

Rinko and Edmond

From a tourist's perspective, this is a great way to spend a day outside the city and take in some of Australia's natural beauty. Rin was a great tour guide and made the day easy.

Ben

We had an amazing time. Kunal was informative and entertaining; his descriptions and stories made the tour a highlight of our trip to Sydney. We highly recommend him as the guide to ask for when taking a tour to the Blue Mountains.

Great low stress way to see a lot in a day. Rin was a great guide. Knowledgeable but not overbearing with non stop facts. She was very pleasant and funny and wove that into facts and history. 100% would recommend.
