The description of the tour experience did not make it clear that if you chose not to do the Sydney zoo or the Scenic World cable experiences, which were paid extras, you would have to spend 3 hours on your own. This is because each of these took an hour and a half and happened one after the other at the start of the day. So in effect, half of the day is spent on your own devices with little guidance. The tour operator should either increase their price to include these activities which will give a more accurate estimate of the cost of the tour or provide guided alternative activities which will be included in the tour price for people who don’t want to take part in the paid activities. The way it is now is really false advertising. The three overlooks stops of the Blue mountain that was included in the tour was great because the views were amazing. The so called River cruise listed is laughable!! It was just a ferry ride back to Circular Quay that freed the tour operator of the responsibility of dropping people off in designated hotels from which they were picked up. This also is certainly false advertising!! Just call it what it is and let people know that they will be returning to central Sydney by ferry and will need to find their way back to their final destinations. Making it sound like a fancy river cruise is the ultimate in deceptive marketing. I did ultimately enjoy myself in spite of the aforementioned concerns because of the spectacular Blue mountain views. Also, the funny stories and commentaries of the tour guide, Les. made the long periods spent on the bus more enjoyable and he was very knowledgeable of the local history.

Long but brilliant day visiting Sydney zoo and the Blue Mountains. Couldn’t have visited the mountains and seen them from different viewpoints any better. Our tour guide Les was really interesting and full of history and knowledge. Just do it 👍

This was a big day out. Our pick up was at 7.30am nd we were not back in Sydney until 6..00pm. It was a great opportunity to get to the Blue Mountains and to be taken to some of the view points. We did not want to go to the zoo and so had well over an hour to wait there while other people went in but we passed the time with a coffee. Our driver/guide was excellent. In particular he dealt sensitively with the (groundless) complaints from two passengers. The ferry trip back to the city was a bonus!

Unfortunately, it was pouring down, Les the driver did all in his power to find us a view but in the end we all made the decision to return to Sydney. We still had a great time and all arrived back safe.
