Escape Sydney for a private day in the Blue Mountains: meet koalas and kangaroos at Featherdale, walk to Katoomba Falls, and stand above the Jamison Valley at the Three Sisters. This guided trip blends wildlife, short bushwalks and optional Scenic World rides into a tailored 10‑hour outing.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach and the air is different — cooler, drier, threaded with eucalyptus oil. Ahead, the rim of the Jamison Valley drops away in layers of russet sandstone and deep green forest; the Three Sisters rise from the cliff like weathered sculptures, nearly 1,000 metres above sea level, their blunt profiles cut by wind and millennia.

Wear grippy walking shoes

Bring at least 1–2 liters of water
The plateau is dry and sunny even when the valley is cool; carry water to stay comfortable during walks and viewpoint stops.
Plan for optional Scenic World fees
Unlimited rides at Scenic World are optional and paid on site — budget extra if you want the Skyway, Railway and Cableway experience.
Follow wildlife park rules
Featherdale has strict handling and photo rules for koalas and native animals — listen to keepers to protect the animals and avoid fines.
Sturdy walking shoes
Firm soles and ankle support help on rocky lookouts and rainforest tracks.
Daypack with water
Carry 1–2 liters of water, snacks and layers for changing mountain weather.
