The staff and drivers were very friendly, helpful, and professional. We also learned a lot about the history of each lookout point, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The drivers were incredibly patient and welcoming throughout the trip. We truly appreciate all of your help and highly recommend this tour. Thank you for making our experience so memorable!

Such a great way to get around and see all the sights without worrying about driving or parking! The drivers were friendly and the bus ran right on time, which made planning our day so much easier. Most people use it as a classic hop-on hop-off to hit the main lookouts, but we got a bit more adventurous with ours — taking it one way then hiking to a different stop before hopping back on to continue exploring. Worked out perfectly and gave us way more flexibility than I expected. Would definitely recommend, whether you're doing the laid-back loop or mixing in some hiking like we did.

(Translated by Google) Day trip, bus around the 2 neighboring towns, 23 stops, every hour the bus will leave for another round, travelers can get on and off as they wish for two days, some are content to get off at a scenic point with the cliffs, forests, valleys, mists and everything you see to the distant horizon, those who want to get off at one stop and from there walk to another stop, the booklet attached to each ticket has an exceptionally good description and recommendations for hiking trails or interesting places, we are an elderly couple who are also somewhat challenged by walking, we will discuss at stations that do not require much walking but bring views and more views, yes, the galleries inside Katoomba also have a lot of views and spectacular exhibits that include the immediate and more distant surroundings. Simply recommended, after a stop or two you already know the driver and some of the passengers like a small community (Original) יום טיול, אוטובוס סובב 2 העיירות הסמוכות אחת לשניה, 23 תחנות, כל שעה האוטובוס יןצא לסיבוב נוסף, המטיילים יכולים במשך יומיים לעלות לרדת כרצונם, יש מי שמסתפק לרדת לנקודת נוף מקימה עם המצוקים, היערות, העמקים, הערפילים וכל מה שרואים עד האופק הרחוק, מי שרוצה לחלץ גופו בהליכה יכול לרדת בתחנה אחת ומשם בשביל לתחנה אחרת, בחוברת המצורפת לכל כרטיס יש פרוט יוצא דופן לטובה והמלצות על מסלולי טיול או מקומות מעניינים, אנחנו זוג מקשישים שחלק גם מאותגר הליכה יאדנו בתחנות שלא מצריכות הליכה רבה אבל מביאות נוף נוף ועוד נוף, כן גם בגלריות בתוך קטומבה יש הרבה נוף ומוצגים מרהיבים המכילים את הסביבה הקרובה וגם רחוקה יותר. פשוט מומלץ, אחרי תחנה או שתיים כבר מכירים את הנהג וחלק מהנוסעים כמו קהילה קטנה

Loved our trip on the Explorer Bus, really easy & convenient way to get to all the stops. The 2 drivers we had were kept us laughing with the stories & jokes. Definitely recommend the tours.

We had such a disappointing experience with the Blue Mountains Explorer bus. We were waiting at a stop for nearly 2 hours, with not a single bus in sight. We eventually had to give up and get the public bus back to the town, which meant we missed out on seeing the majority of things we wanted to see (not to mention the 2 hours we’d spent sitting around waiting). When we got back to Katoomba we went into the shop and spoke to the worker who apologised and said a bus had come - even though it absolutely did not go past our stop. When we asked for a refund she told us we’d need to email about it (but implied we would be due one). We have since emailed multiple times requesting our refund and been told that a bus did go so it seems we won’t be getting one. It should be mentioned that this happened over a race weekend, and the road was apparently closed - hence the difficulty getting to our stop. Why they would even sell tickets when there was going to be road closures is beyond me. And to say “we didn’t know they’d close the roads” seems unlikely, or just completely ignorant on their part. Really disappointing, and a complete waste of money. I would very much appreciate a refund, as currently we paid $55 each and got 1 bus journey out of it. And then paid more for the public bus….. Do yourself a favour and hire a car instead of using this dreadful service.

I thought our trip to Scenic world was great. The view from the cable cars of the Blue Mountains was amazing. Well worth going

The level of fog renders any sightseeing absolutely useless. Certain places closed due to run failure to advise at time of booking.

This was such a great rainy day activity in the Blue Mountains, especially for little ones who love riding the bus. We booked the 1 hour Boomerang Pass and sat on the bus listening to the driver's commentary which was informative and engaging. Really fun experience, would do it again!

Great buses and friendly, informative drivers (mostly everyone loved the dad jokes and singing 😅). Every 45 minutes would be better to get around more sites, but very useful service when coming in from Sydney on the train.
