Itinerary

Stop 1

Start your adventure with a visit to Sydney Zoo, where you’ll meet native animals like kangaroos, koalas, and more. Explore the koala trail, and catch a fascinating indigenous artefact demonstration inside the Talking Hut. Don’t miss the massive reptile and nocturnal house—home to the largest collection of its kind—before grabbing a coffee and taking a quick break.

Stop 2

Take in the sweeping views of the Jamison Valley and gaze upon the iconic Three Sisters rock formation. Browse through local souvenir shops offering sparkling crystals and precious opals, then wander along the sandstone cliff edges and admire the ancient rock formations stretching all the way to Mount Gibraltar.

Stop 3

Pause for lunch in the picturesque village of Leura, known for its charming cafes and wide variety of food choices—from hearty burgers and woodfired pizzas to fresh salads and sweet treats like ice cream and handmade chocolates. Try the unique kangaroo burger or kangaroo pastry in a rich goulash sauce, or bring your own lunch to enjoy in the peaceful park. A local supermarket is also nearby for extra snacks or essentials.

Enjoy a self-guided hike along the Prince Henry Cliff Walk. There are a number of spectacular lookouts to enjoy including Orphan Rock Lookout, Katoomba Falls Lookout, Cliff View Lookout and Juliet's Balcony.
