Blue Mountains Private Day Trip from Sydney with Lunch and Calmsley Hill Farm Visit
by AEA Luxury Tours
Overview
This private day trip covers key sites in the Blue Mountains region west of Sydney over about nine hours. A driver meets participants at their Sydney hotel to begin the journey. The first stop is Calmsley Hill City Farm, where guests spend about an hour meeting native Australian animals like koalas, kangaroos, emus, and wombats while enjoying morning tea or coffee with light snacks. An experienced guide provides information about the animals during the visit. Next, the tour continues into Blue Mountains National Park for around three hours. The group visits several lookouts known for views of canyons, valleys, and unusual rock formations, choosing locations less frequented by large crowds. Some stops offer opportunities for short walks. A brief visit to the Three Sisters rock formation follows. This stop lasts about 20 minutes and includes a chance to hear the Aboriginal story behind the name. The small tour vehicles allow access to vantage points not reachable by larger buses. Lunch is included with two options: a two-course meal at Echoes Restaurant overlooking the Jamison Valley, which includes one beverage per person, or a two-course meal at the Boilerhouse Café at the Hydro Majestic with views of the Megalong Valley. The Boilerhouse lunch does not include drinks, which can be purchased separately. The menu at both venues changes seasonally and offers choices to accommodate most diets. The tour also stops at Govetts Leap for 20 minutes to view a waterfall that drops 180 meters into the valley below. Hotel pickup and drop-off, bottled water, national park fees, and transport by private vehicle are included. Drinks other than those specified with lunch are not included.
