What to expect
Your driver picks you up and heads to Featherdale Wildlife Park, where you'll spend time with Australia's iconic animals — koalas, kangaroos, wombats and others — at close quarters. After that, you move into the Blue Mountains themselves for a guided walk through the national park, taking in the Three Sisters formation and quieter lookouts that skirt the main tourist crowds. You'll also wander through the village of Leura at your own pace.
After lunch (which you arrange to suit yourself), you spend the afternoon at Scenic World with unlimited access to rides, including the famous Scenic Railway that descends the steepest incline railway grade in the world. The tour wraps up with your return journey. Total time on the road is around 9–10 hours.

Good to know
This works well for families wanting variety and a mix of wildlife, natural scenery and attractions, plus anyone keen to avoid the usual crowded lookouts. Being private, you can set the pace and make stops suit your group. Physically, it's suitable for all fitness levels — the walk is guided but casual. Prams and strollers are welcome for small children, and infant car seats are available. Weather can shift fast in the mountains, so bring layers. Lunch isn't included, so budget and plan that separately with your guide. The tour is long, so factor in drive time and fatigue, especially with young kids.
