There are many tour...
There are many tour operators to Blue Mountains. We selected Runaway because we were looking for private tour and we like the suggested itinerary. We had an amazing time visiting Featherdale Wildlife Park and Blue Mountains with Liz! Liz is friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and professional. When we were at Featherdale, she offered to wait in line for photo with koala for our family while we strolled through the front part of the wildlife park. We also learned many history and fun facts of Australia, Sydney, and Blue Mountains. We enjoyed hitting charming towns and walking down trails that lead to breathtaking, panoramic views of sandstone cliffs, as well as iconic rock formations. Thank you Liz and Runaway Tours Sydney for the awesome day trip!
Response from the operator: Hi I Min That's great that Liz showed you an amazing time on your private Blue Mountains tour. We're glad you got that extra special koala photo as well. The mountains certainly have some amazing views and charming villages, so it sounds like you had a magic day all round.

Response from the operator: Hi there. We are very pleased that Glenn showed you a great time on your private Blue Mountains tour. The wildlife park certainly is a highlight for a lot of our guests. You can also die happy knowing that you've fed the kangaroos and survived a Tasmanian Devil encounter!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sydney.
How much does Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park cost?
+
Prices start at $510 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sydney usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sydney is not rushed.
Is Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 113 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sydney, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park?
+
Around 40 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sydney can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sydney and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Blue Mountains Private Tour including Wildlife Park start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sydney within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sydney?
+
On Outty we rank every Sydney experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include WILD Wombat and Kangaroo Day Tour, All Inclusive, Depart Syd: Blue Mountains Best All Inclusive with Local Guide, Blue Mountain Small Group Tour All Inclusive. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sydney?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sydney?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
