I was in Sydney last year and I bought a Day Tour package to the Blue Mountains at the Darling Harbour visitor centre and I was very pleased with it. I think the tour agency was called FJ tours or something. It was about $100 or so, can't quite remember. It included the transportation to Blue Mountains by shuttle, a buffet lunch, visits to other tourist spots on the way such as the Featherdale Wildlife Park (which I loved!), Echo Point and others as well as a return trip to Darling Harbour by cruise. The only additional thing we had to pay was for the rides at the Blue Mountains. I would highly recommend visiting Blue Mountains.

Paddy's Market is the best place to buy cheap souvenirs. We saw the same stuff that we bought there at double or triple the price in other places in Sydney! But you need to plan to slot them in because they only open on weekends.

The visitor centres are god-sent and are available everywhere. Just look for the yellow signboards. I bought my ticket combo at a cheap price for the Aquariym, Wildlife Centre and Sydney Tower + OzTrek. The Oztrek experience alone was quite worth the price of the entire combo but that could just be the kid in me saying that!

Hey cool! I have to go and check how much my package was .... I really can't remember but I was very pleased with the price.

Did you happen to get Big Jim as your guide? He's hilarious.
