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.

Excellent tour
We were short on time so decided just to do the round trip on the Hop on/ Hop off bus tour. Pre booking online was very easy. Boarded at Katoomba. If you can, sit upstairs for a better view. The driver was very personable and informative, pointing out the best views and slowing down so we could enjoy them. The history of the area is very interesting. After a smooth and pleasant journey, we disembarked at Leura.

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.

A must do tour.....
We got on at Leura, although the QR code information only told us we had to be in Katoomba. Luckily the bus showed up before we tried to get to Katoomba. The guide was amazing, but he kept telling us we only had a pass for the round trip, but the QR CODE said, hop on hop off..... so not sure what that was about. all a little confusing, but doesn't detract from a good day. Great information by driver.

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.

Great tour of the Blue Mountains. Weather was good and the walks were enjoyable. We added the rail/skyrail which completed the tour.Would advise to add it prior or if a tour is offered with both take it.
