A visit to Scenic World was included in our tour. Tickets all pre organised and we were soon enjoying the short descent in the Railcar, although the ride would have been more enjoyable with views from the front car. The Skywalk was our highlight. Great experience surrounded by the trees and other vegetation, views of the abandoned mine equipment, the entrance to the old mine and the Aussie Miner & Pit Pony sculpture, and our guide regaling us with the past history of the area. We enjoyed our ride on the cable car, great views to the valley and waterfall and the mountain ranges. Plenty of goodies on offer in the shop.

Over ticketed. Way too crowded! Greed overwhelms a beautiful part of the world Wait times of 30-55 minutes to get on any of the cable cars. Top that off with limited space in the cafe. Was here years ago and loved it, clearly the revenue is the most important now

Great experience walking the forest floor. Railway and cable car great fun. Skyway is great too but is an issue if you’re limited for time and it’s busy as there’s a big queue, then they make you get off the other side (ok if you want to explore the walls and lookouts), and join another queue to get back across.

We went as part of a day tour and it was a nice relaxing trip. There are several things to do including the steep tram, a glass-bottom cable car, and a scenic walk through the woods. Breath-taking views and only about an hour drive from Sydney. Definitely worth it if you want to take a nature trip while you are in the area.

Overall Scenic World is a good day out with the steep railway being the highlight. What soured the day was the Scenic World employee that prevented a bunch of customers on the Skyway at the Katoomba falls side due to the Indian Pacific customers turning up on a bus, late (their words which was great for them apparently) but sucked for the rest of us as we watched a half empty Skyway leave. Instead of letting the customers to return on the cableway, a number of whom was standing in the sun due to the lack of shade, we were stopped from going on. The employee spoke out of his arse saying that the skyway was full (it wasn't) and crapped on that it only only allows a ton as he drives the skyway (sure, you press a button and its still more than half empty). Dude was rude and instead of saying 'sorry, my bad', just turned his back and gave a sour expression. All smiles for the Indian Pacific customers though! Need to do that cruise once I get old so I get the 5 star treatment. You may be experienced to drive a Skyway but its too hard for you to split a crowd in 2 and say Indian Pacific customers to one side and your other paying customers on the other who were there at the same time. We had to listen to the Indian Pacific lecture then watch them get on the cableway missing 2 cycles and wasting 25 minutes of our time which would of been better spent at Scenic World rather than standing in a hot bare cableway stop. Kudos to the other staff member allowing the elderly couple on with your Indian Pacific customers cause the poor dude couldn't stand for that long. If you drive yourself there, skip the Skyway. There is plenty of parking at Katoomba Falls rather than wasting your time on the Skyway. And if you're find yourself with the Indian Pacific customers, expect to be treated differently and placed at the back of the line. Sad thing is that interactions with other staff was wonderful. Just takes 1 bad egg to ruin the day.

Three of us went on a Wednesday early March. We booked online and selected an 11am arrival slot. We actually arrived at 10.45. The queues were very short for the rides. Later, about 12.30 it was much busier. We were given a map and the different walk lengths were drawn on it. The signposting on the paths is generally good. We really enjoyed the rides and did some of them more than once. We felt we got our money's worth. The views from the skyway and cableway were stunning. Walking to the viewpoints offered longer to admire the scenery. On the walk from the bottom of the railway there is lots of information about the old mine. The staff were all friendly and helpful

We had a fantastic time at Scenic world, we are from Sydney and it is really something that everyone should come and do! Different things you can do is great, it was very well staffed and operated. However a few little things nearly ruined our day - Appreciate we were there on a Saturday and it was busy, there were numerous European tourists that had no hesitation pushing and shoving to get onto the skyway and cable car. I think management could find a far better way to get a better queuing system happening. I literally had to hold my kids by the arms and even then one nearly got bowled over by some random lady thinking she could beat us onto the cable car to get a better view. Very difficult for families to stay together and people who do the right thing and wait in line get punished. Secondly, there is a very minimal percentage of people wearing masks. I’m quite sure the random European tourists came from a cruise ship and particularly waiting for the skyway there was absolutely no way to social distance from these people, especially with staff telling you to move up to get more people into the area immediately next to skyway entry. One of them wanted to stand between me and my husband and I had to literally push them away. If at all possible come to this amazing place early and on a less busy day if at all possible. Bring a mask and be prepared to fight for your life should there be any scary European tourists around. Even after all that it was a worthwhile visit.

Way over priced. You can achieve the same experience from the national park look out. Don't waste over $200 for the family, walk 200 metres for the same views. It was a complete rip off. We will never go back

We visited on Good Friday & expected long queues arriving at 11.15, but were pleasantly surprised. Apart from the 10-15 minute walk from the base of the railway to the cableway, we didn’t do any of the hikes, so completed the railway, cableway & skyway in 90 minutes. Once inside you can ride each of the 3 attractions multiple times if you want to. The railway is a very short ride, partly in a tunnel, so the views aren’t great, but the cableway and skyway both offer great views. You could get similar views for free if you are prepared to hike, but this is the easy way out and as such reasonable value even though we were only there about 2 to 2.5 hours.

Our friend in Sydney brought us here to show off the beautiful Blue Mountains and the Three Sisters Rocks. The scenery is excellent with such great views from the visitor center. We had lunch at the Cafe, which was quite good but a bit on the more expensive side. There is also a coffee bar. We did not have time to take some of the tours offered but would have loved to do so. It's well worth the trip from Sydney.
