Overview

Coast Warriors is Sydney’s chilled out small group tour operator own and run by Aussie locals. We target the fitter 17 to 60ish years of age travellers though older is fine if you can bushwalk and like what you see advertised :) This tour offers one of Sydney's highest reviewed experiences for those seeking a relaxed Blue Mountains option. Our tours are run by fun local Aussies with the aim of being less of a tour and more of a feeling of a small group of mates on a day trip. We have now been running this adventure for many years so you can put trust that we will take you to only the best and less touristy places within the Blue Mountains. Waterfalls, amazing lookouts, Glenbrook cafe stop (locals cafe), the Three Sisters at Katoomba, occasionally a kangaroo and often birds. This is a full day in the Blue Mountains generally away from all the tourists and other mainstream tour bus locations. Aussie snacks like Tim Tams & Vegemite are on offer too.

Meeting points

Sydney Downtown City Pickup | 7.30am (Near St Laurence Church on the George Street side) Departure time is 7.30am & it's advised to arrive 10 mins early. Trains, buses, trams and Uber are cheap & reliable in Sydney. Use your credit card or phone ☑️

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

This tour is organised and run by locals who have lived in the Blue Mountains all their life taking you to only the best places that can be fit in in a full day tour. This full day Blue Mountains tour is exactly that, we do not attend non relevant zoos, boats etc. Scenic World has also been removed from our itinerary as it wasn't well received by our customer base.   This adventure commences early from Sydney with a meet and greet at the pickup point. You then have a bit over an hour to acquaint yourself with the group on the bus ride heading to the outskirts of Sydney. Once you hit the start of the Blue Mountains there is a quick stop at a local shopping village where you can have a quick toilet/food/drinks stop before heading all the way up to the amazing Three Sisters rock formations. After taking photos of the Three sisters and jaw dropping Jamison Valley we then take you on a bushwalk right up to the three sisters and even onto one of the rock formations. We then progress further into the mountains to Wentworth Falls where your guide will take the group for a 90 min hike through the bush where you will see local fauna, bird life and see several waterfalls on your hike to the base of the immense Wentworth falls and even have a quick refreshing dip. All that sightseeing makes people hungry so the group will relocate to a nearby area where we cook an authentic Aussie BBQ with veggies and kangaroo on the side (vegetarian/vegan options). After lunch we continue the day of fun and head to a local and secluded waterhole where people can go swimming or lay around on the sand in the sun deep within the bush of the Blue Mountains. Then, you head off into the nearby National Park down a long dirt road to say hello to skippy the Kangaroo. This tour has had hundreds of 5 star reviews. We are a small and passionate option! By now the day is getting on and we head back into Sydney with an approximate arrival time of 6:00pm. We often conclude our day together at the Central Sydney bar.

  • Please do not print off your booking voucher. Just have it on your phone. No point wasting your time and our paper
  • In regards to reviews, a vast majority are actually over on TripAdvisor opposed to the very small amount here
  • **Update August 2024**We have noticed an increase of dingoes (wild dogs) in the area scaring off the kangaroos. We also hope that this will return to normal asap. This has affected all tours mentioning wild kangaroos. Apologies
  • We highly recommend travel insurance in Australia as our emergency fees are quite high for non citizens
  • To maximise time spent in the Blue Mountains we do not offer hotel pickup or drop off. Sydney's public transport is very reliable and efficient. Uber too

Great day trip with lots of stops & lunch!

Published on Feb, 2025

An amazing day trip around all of the key lookouts in the blue mountains. Views are breathtaking and the waterfall hike was a fantastic addition. Our guide was relaxed, friendly and gave all the key details while leaving you to explore at each location, with lots of time at each. Nice sandwich included for lunch. Would definitely recommend.

Kieran had a wealth of local knowledge that he imported in a friendly and amusing way. The day proceeded to schedule well despite some traffic holdups on the day. The walks were undertaken at a pace all could handle. Great day out
