There was no waiting around. The bus came shortly after we arrived and we did hop off - and again no issue waiting around to hop back on another bus. We did both the red and blue routes. The weather was glorious - we spent out time on the top deck for the best views and the commentary was very educational. Would definitely recommend !

Great opportunity to see and access parts of Sydney I wouldn't have made it to. Loved the upper level of the bus as you could see more and further than if at street level! However I'm sure the commentary/information was much more detailed and better a few years ago... it was ok but didn't really inform as much about buildings/spaces as you passed. That was disappointing.

The experience was good. What I don't understand is when it's say the ticket is for 24 hrs by then the bus finishes at 4pm? We activated our ticket around 10am. We got off ar 3 places. The last place was Bondi Beach. We got to the bus before 4pm to catch the hop on hop off bus. After waiting for over 30 minutes, we called and was told there is no more bus service. Which means that's the end of our $69.00 ticket we only used for 5 hrs? Please explain what you mean by 24 hrs. How does it work if the bus starts at 9 and finishes at 4pm? Thanks

We had the joint ticket to do the Sydney & Bondi ride. We had planned at changing at Central but there was no announcements. Therefore we ran out of time to use the full ticket.

Booking Tickets online was easy. Ability to track the Bus on the App was handy and easy. Close up and Great views of all the sites from the top of the Bus. Interesting and informative commentary.

Gaze at the Great Dividing Range

The Blue Mountains are bedecked in eucalyptus-rich rainforests that have thrived for over 100 million years and spread across hectares. The blazing Australian sun and fine oil mist from the eucalyptus leaves combine to emit a unique blue haze, earning the Blue Mountains their name.

Take in views of the world's third-largest mountain range–the Great Dividing Range, also known as the Eastern Highlands. Overlooking the Jamison Valley is a rocky trio called the Three Sisters which was formed over 200 million years ago. Yet the local myth surrounding their 3-sisters origin is even more captivating–be sure to ask your guide about it!

Dive Into Adventure at Scenic World

Embark on the most exciting part of the tour at Scenic World, where your adventure kicks off with the Scenic Skyway.Take a walk on a transparent glass floor, revealing breathtaking views of the valley below. Next, take a train ride at the steepest passenger railway in the world, with an incline of 52 degrees, suitable for all ages

Meet the Residents of Sydney Zoo

Reach the Sydney Zoo for an ultimate wildlife experience and see koalas, baby qallabies, emus, wombats, crocodiles, and more. End your tour with a ferry trip on the Parramatta River to Circular Quay, which will take you under the Harbour Bridge and past the Opera House before disembarking at Circular Quay.
