Blue Mountains Hop-on Hop-off Tour with Optional Scenic World Rides

We were hesitant at first to book a hop-on hop-off tour like this, but this was the best possible decision we could have made as we felt that this allowed us to see everything we wanted to see in a limited about of time we took the first bus going out and came back on the last bus. All three of the drivers who were working that day were very personable and gave great recommendations. The first driver I think his name was Jimmy spoke an impressive amount of languages and greeted ALL of the guests in their native tongue, Damien who we had the most during the day recommended that we not only stop at the Leura Cascades but not to rush it like we originally planned, but rather spend some time hiking further down, which we allowed us to see Bridal Veil Falls which was one of the most impressive water falls I've seen thanks to some rainy days leading up to our visit. When we were taking the train into town from Sydney we were very disheartened by the rainy and foggy weather, but we were really and it cleared up for us right when we got to the Three Sisters lookout and again when we made our second stop at Scenic World. My advice is if you have the time to take advantage of the unlimited rides at Scenic World and try to do the tram ride when the weather is nicer because it made a huge difference for us!

Hello Everyone, The Hop-on and Hop-off Bus is a very smart way to save money and time to see all of God's creativity of the Blue Mountains. We're able to see most of the stops with a three day pass this is best deal for your money and you'll never be able to see all in one day. Our tour manager was polite and helpful with information to enjoy park the best. Scenic World was our highlight of the trip with many thrill rides with enjoyable screams I would say...

The bus is very convenient, and the driver are are friendly-- the first took a slight detour past our hotel to drop us off, which was very handy. There is a lot to see though and the hikes take time, we only took the bus a few times over the two days because most time is spent hiking. The buses stop relatively early so the first evening we had to rush back though there was plenty of light. During the peak season right around new years the buses run later to catch stragglers, but the timetables even the adjusted ones they provided during this time don't show this. Still all in all it was worthwhile just so we wouldn't worry about having to call a taxi and the possibility of poor cell reception.

Unfortunately weather was not best for touring, however this tour is worth every cent. You certainly need the three days to see all the sights. Buses were punctual and drivers provided a wealth of information. Must visit Scenic World and make use of unlimited rides option. Blue Mountains are certainly on my bucket list to visit again.......soon!

Perfect way to see Katomba with very friendly and informative tour drivers.

Loved the Blue mountains but was not able to do all the stops and lots of walking. Seemed long to wait between buses.

They were very pushy trying to sell additional items and didn't explain the stops very well. Drivers almost forced you to get off on some stops, presumably those that pay them to even have a stop there...i.e. the chocolate place.

Easy pickups... drivers very passionate about what they showing us. well worth the costs

This was brilliant and definitely a must if you are travelling to the Blue Mountains independently. We exchanged voucher right outside the train station and the bus stop was just across the road. The tour guide was very informative and even stopped the bus on a couple of occasions at beauty spots to give us a bit more detail about the history and some stories of the area. We included the Scenic World rides as well and we spent about 3 hours there - it was brilliant and beautiful. Definitely worth getting there as early as you can as it gets busy with the coach tours turning up about lunchtime. Fantastic day out highly recommend and one of our highlights from our trip to Australia.

I think the Hop-on Hop-Off trips are highly under-rated. This trip allowed MANY great stop choices - too many to use in one day. The drivers were always on time, helpful and some were even story-tellers. The coach was clean and comfortable with a great view on the top layer. The information provided in the extensive brochure was accurate and easily readable with a great layout. I highly recommend this as an option for next travels.
