Sydney Zoo

We met downstairs at 8:30 AM. It took almost an hour to pick up guests from their respective hotels; traffic in Sydney city was terrible. We first went to Echo Point to take pictures of the Three Sisters peaks. The photos were a bit ordinary, but in person they're quite beautiful, with endless forests. We arrived at the cable car station around 11:00 AM, which took about 2.5 hours on the scenic area. During the free time, first take the red cable car down to the valley and walk along the trail for 10 minutes before taking the blue cable car back to the main building. There's a restaurant on the 3rd floor of the main building with burgers and fried chicken rice. After eating, we went to the souvenir shop, but the souvenirs were a bit expensive. Later, we found that the market had better quality and cheaper souvenirs. Since we had time, we took the red cable car again. After reaching the end, no one boarded, so we went back to the main building on the same cable car. Then we took the yellow cable car to the meeting point. In summary, 2.5 hours is enough time. The scenic area isn't very interesting. The valley trail has some information about the old mines, statues, and explanations, but I wasn't very interested, so I took the shortest route to the blue cable car. There were quite a few people queuing for the cable car, but each time it only seats a lot of people, so each cable car only takes about 10 minutes to board. With your wristband, you can ride the cable car unlimited times. If you want to get your money's worth, bring your own lunch and eat quickly before riding the cable car. I highly recommend taking the red cable car, the world's steepest cable car, which is very exciting. Few people ride back from the valley to the main building, so you can go back directly on the same cable car. It takes 15-20 minutes to ride once, including queuing. After World Cup, we went to Leura and had an hour of free time, but it was just one street and there wasn't much to see 😂. We tried their famous ice cream, which was great 👍🏻. We finished walking around in half an hour and went to a cafe to relax and enjoy the Australian town atmosphere 👍🏻. We returned to Sydney at 5 pm and spent about half an hour dropping everyone off at their hotels. Overall, the itinerary was tight but had plenty of time. A lot of time was spent picking up and dropping off guests at their hotels, which was convenient. The tour guide provided commentary while driving, which was good, but unfortunately, there was no loudspeaker in the car, so those in the back wouldn't be able to hear the commentary. The Blue Mountains are beautiful, and it's definitely worth spending a day there if you're in Sydney.
