Blue Mountains Hop-on-Hop-off-Tour; Optional: Scenic World, Waradah Aboriginal Centre

Great way to see the town. Missed the "5" mark for me as the office staff appeared too rushed and answers given to questions were not clear. The bus drivers were nice, but some directions to hiking paths were vague. Example: "At honeymoon lookout, just take the easy 20 min walk to Echo Point" When we got off, there appeared to be a path to our left so off we went. After 45+ min walk which was not easy with multiple stairs, we realized we should have taken a path that was to the right of where we got dropped off. We missed it because of the trees. It appears this maybe an issue the bus company may have been aware of because the next day we got on the bus, the driver announced "No stop at Honeymoon Lookout because the town is finally doing tree cutting as tge trees were too over grown." We had 6 unhappy people after that hike which sadly set the tone for the rest of the day.

The office for the bus is conveniently located at the top of the stairs as one leaves the railway station. Office staff efficient and friendly for checking in and issuing tickets. Bus stops at good number of locations within park. Unfortunately 30 -45 minute delay for picking up next bus so ability to visit the number of sites within park limited.

This was the best plan we made, used the bus for 3 days to get all the walks and tourists areas while in blue mountains. The drivers - David, Tim and Angus were outstanding with their help and information and that they all have a joke with you makes it a great day. They gave great tips on what walks to do, which way to go and the best thing you don’t have to worry about a car and they aren’t far away when you get to a pick up point.
