If you hire a car for the day from Sydnay, you can reach the Blue Mountains easily under your own steam. Echo Point is the look-out everyone takes the buses to, so avoid this unless you must (you'll have to pay to park!) - it is spectacular but far too touristy , better to go to one of the free... more

We used True Blue tours because it was the only brochure that I could easily understand. All of the activities were separately itemized and I was basically able to customize my event while traveling with... more
