The dinosaur park was fun. Good scenery and informative as we were driving up and back from the Blue Mountains. The trip to the Sydney Zoo was fun as well, we were able to take pictures with the Koala's, unfortunately we didn't get one of the pictures. We were headed back to the city and the tour guide said he didn't receive one of our pictures.

We had a great time. The guide was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He had a lot of information but told it in such a way that everything stays with you. Saw a lot of beautiful places. We will definitely book with this organization again.

We had a great time, Warren is a thorough professional, jovial and entertaining. His sense of humour is commendable. Tour was organised well, only thing I would suggest is to give more time at scenic world.

Hotel pickup location was not communicated to the tour provider which was disappointing - was being told by the coordinator that I did not put in a hotel which I did when doing my booking with Headout Tour was really rushed ,I.e lunch was 45 mins inclusive of getting off the mini van and meeting back at the drop off location . The tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful in some ways - understand that it is a new route by the tour provider ,and mini van was comfortable. Would think that the Sydney zoo visit might not be necessary and could have depend more time at the scenic walks, blue mountain area instead

A day with Australia’s natural scenery

Rise and shine for a day full of fun with the fam! Hop into a comfortable AC car and embark on a full-day trip to the Blue Mountains. Stop for some coffee at the township of Glenbrook before jumpstarting your day. Feel the adrenaline pumping through you as you ride the passenger railway while catching snapshot views of the orange-red cliffs of Jamison Valley. Step into the glass gondola or cable car and glide over the canopy rainforests while catching an uninterrupted view of the sandstone pillar, Orphan Rock. Catch a breathtaking view of the segmented Katoomba Falls and the three unusually-shaped sandstone formations called the Three Sisters from the scenic Echo Point.

Quality time with some furry friends

Move on to exploring the Edwardian Leura Village, home to the famous Teapot Museum with 5500 teapots from around the globe and across centuries. You can shop for some silver trinkets, scarves, and handmade candles for loved ones as you explore the village. Then, step into Sydney Zoo, which houses more than 4000 animals such as the Tufted Capuchin, the small-clawed otter, and the African-painted dog. What’s more, you can cement this memory forever by clicking a photo with one of the world’s sleepiest animals, the koalas. End your day by taking a trip down back to Sydney in a ferry while catching the cool evening breeze and a beautiful view of the Sydney Harbor Bridge as the sun sets over the horizon.
