Excellent trip and our...
Wonderful trip and our guide Greg was excellent and extremely helpful. He provided a lot of information for us to make the right decisions, from resting areas, coffee places and physical difficulty level to get at specific spots like Gordon falls or Wentworth falls. Spectacular views and enjoyable day. Physically tiring but as Greg mentioned one day that it will last in our memory forever. Highly recommended and you can take options accordingly to your physical capacity overall stunning specially Wentworth falls.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful trip and that Greg’s helpfulness and knowledge made your day special. It’s great to know he provided valuable information to help you enjoy the scenery comfortably, especially at spots like Gordon Falls and Wentworth Falls. The spectacular views and memorable moments truly make it a day to remember, even if it was physically tiring. We appreciate your high recommendation and are glad you could tailor the options to suit your capacity. We hope to host you again for more stunning adventures!

Good scenery, bad guide
The tour reaches a beautiful waterfall and views. If you're really interested in the Blue Mountains, I would recommend going there for more than a day. The 3 stars is for our 1 star guide. Unenthusiastic, not much info, no one got his name. He told us to meet at 2:40. After we waited 15 minutes, we called the tour company worried we had missed the group. He had stayed with the group at another spot (we were told we could explore on our own). 25 mins later when we met up, he said it was "okay" and "not a problem." No apology. Acted like it was our fault. I've been on a lot of day trip tours, and this guide (Eric? or Derick?) is the worst.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the beautiful Blue Mountains, but we're sorry to hear your experience with the guide fell short of expectations. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will be following up with the team to help improve future tours.

Wentworth Waterfall highlight!
We loved this day trip outside of Sydney. Our guide (Greg) was so friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure we had the best experiences possible and added in a bunch of great stories along the way. We stopped for a nice dinner on the way back too! The Wentworth waterfall was beautiful!
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear that you loved the day trip outside of Sydney and that Greg’s friendly and knowledgeable guidance made it special. It’s great to know he added engaging stories and ensured you had the best experiences. The dinner stop and the beauty of Wentworth Falls sound like perfect highlights. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to helping you create more memorable adventures in the future!

Blue Mountains on a sunny but very windy day.
This is an excellent day trip from Sydney to the Blue Mountains area which included a moderate hike to wentworth waterfalls plus time to explore nearby areas as well as catching the sunset at Echo Point which has the view of the Three Sisters. We also got to see some wild kangaroos (one with a joey) along the way. There are plenty of breaks in between to grab lunch/snacks as there are long periods of driving to get to the mountains and getting back to Sydney. I also appreciated hearing about some of the history of the places as well as descriptions of the flora and it uses. It was a nice sunny day but very windy - so windy that the waterfall was going up :) Overall, thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Response from the operator: Thanks for the wonderful review! 😊 We're so glad you enjoyed the Blue Mountains, the hike to Wentworth Falls, and that magical sunset at Echo Point. Sounds like you even got a fun surprise with the wind at the waterfall and some kangaroo sightings along the way! Really happy to hear you had a great day overall. Hope to see you again on another adventure!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Blue Mountains Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sydney.
How much does Blue Mountains Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney cost?
+
Prices start at $114 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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney 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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 299 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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney?
+
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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney 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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney?
+
Around 105 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 Sunset Tour with Kangaroo Sightings from Sydney 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.
