I recently visited the Blue Mountains and booked my tour through Headout. The whole process was super easy and hassle-free. I got the best price, and the experience was truly amazing. The scenery was breathtaking, making the trip even more enjoyable. I'm really happy with how everything turned out and would definitely book with Headout again. Their customer support was great, and I loved the personalized recommendations. If you're looking for a stress-free way to explore new places, I highly recommend giving Headout a try.

From start to finish, this was an incredible trip! Visiting the Blue Mountains is a must for anyone in Sydney. Our first stop was to check out the 3 Sisters mountains, such a stunning view. After that, we went to Scenic World, which included the world’s steepest train down into the rain forest, and that was a blast. We made another stop to see the Blue Mountains from Cahill’s Lookout, which was also breathtaking. Then we had lunch, and the food included in the tour was really nice. After lunch, we visited Sydney Zoo, where we got to feed kangaroos and snap photos with koalas. Finally, we took the ferry back into the city, which was a great way to wrap up the trip. Throughout the day, our guide Tom was absolutely fantastic, super knowledgeable and really friendly, taking the time to answer questions and learn about us. Once back in Sydney, we realized my wife left her scarf on the bus, and we contacted Anderson’s who helped us get it back. Huge thanks to them!

Honestly the best Zoo experience I've had so far!! My favv part is that some of the animals are able to roam freely and you get to be close to them. Their places are so big and clean. I came through on the weekend but it was not packed at all. Definitely would come back again 💕
