Overview

The name is the pitch: three rides, no lunch. No soggy tour-bus buffet baked into the price, you bring your own or grab something you actually want in Leura Village. What you do get is a stacked day. It opens at Featherdale Wildlife Park, where you can hand-feed kangaroos and meet koalas, penguins, wombats and a crocodile. Then it's up the mountains proper: Echo Point's postcard view over the Jamison Valley and the Three Sisters, followed by all three Scenic World rides, Cableway, Skyway and Railway, and that Leura wander. To finish, there's an optional one-hour river cruise gliding back to Darling Harbour or Circular Quay instead of sitting in traffic. It's a 10-to-11.5-hour day with live guide commentary and hotel pickup included. Heads-up: prams can't go on the Scenic Railway, and the tour doesn't cater for access needs.
