Blue Mountains
Transfers & Day Tours
Heading up to the Blue Mountains, or bringing a group down? Zen Maxi Cabs runs 7, 8 and 11 seater maxi cabs between Sydney and the Blue Mountains around the clock — from the CBD, Sydney Airport, cruise terminals and hotels straight to Katoomba, Leura, Wentworth Falls and beyond. It’s a long, scenic run up the Great Western Highway, and with a fixed fare quoted before you travel, there are no meter surprises on the climb. One vehicle takes the whole group, the luggage and the day packs. Call 1300 914 511 or book online, any hour.
Scenic World
One of the Blue Mountains’ most popular attractions, with the Scenic Railway, Skyway and Cableway offering dramatic views over the Jamison Valley. A great stop for families, with plenty to see without a long walk.

Private Blue Mountains day tours from Sydney
Want to see the Blue Mountains properly, at your own pace, without a tour bus timetable? Book a Zen Maxi Cabs vehicle for the day and your driver takes your group between the sights while you explore — no fixed itinerary, no rushing back to a coach.
Three Sisters & Echo Point
The Blue Mountains’ most photographed view. We’ll get your group to Echo Point for the classic Three Sisters shot, with time to walk the lookouts before moving on.
Wentworth Falls
One of the most dramatic waterfalls in the range, with clifftop walks and lookout points. A popular stop for groups wanting a proper bushwalk as part of the day.
Lincoln's Rock
A favourite for sunrise and sunset, with sweeping views across the Jamison Valley. Because it’s a private tour, we can time your visit for first light — something a standard coach tour can’t offer.
Leura, Scenic World & Blackheath
Round out the day with the Leura village shops, the cable cars and railway at Scenic World, or the lookouts around Blackheath and Govetts Leap.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a maxi cab from Sydney to the Blue Mountains?
It’s a long-distance trip, so the fare depends on your exact pickup, destination town and vehicle size — but every Zen Maxi Cabs Blue Mountains transfer is a fixed fare quoted before you travel, with no hidden charges. Call 1300 914 511 for an accurate quote.
How long does it take to drive from Sydney to Katoomba?
Around 90 minutes to two hours from the Sydney CBD in typical traffic via the M4 and Great Western Highway, longer from the airport or in holiday and weekend traffic. We recommend booking ahead and allowing extra time on peak days.
Can you pick us up from Sydney Airport and drive to the Blue Mountains?
Yes — we meet arriving flights at any terminal, track your arrival time, and drive direct to your Blue Mountains accommodation, with room for the whole group and all luggage in one vehicle.
Can we book a maxi cab for a Blue Mountains day tour?
Yes — book by the day and we’ll take your group to Echo Point, Scenic World, Leura, Wentworth Falls and more, with the driver waiting between stops. Tell us your preferred sights when you book.
Do you run Blue Mountains wedding and group transfers?
Yes — we move bridal parties, guests, corporate retreats and tour groups between Sydney and mountain venues, up to 11 per vehicle with more vehicles for larger groups, including late-night returns.
Are baby seats and wheelchair accessible vehicles available for mountain trips?
Yes to both — capsules, child seats and boosters are fitted on request, and wheelchair accessible maxi cabs can be booked for Blue Mountains transfers. Advance booking is recommended for long-distance accessible trips.
Do you run Blue Mountains day tours, or just transfers?
Both. Beyond point-to-point transfers, we offer private day tours — your maxi cab and driver for the day, visiting Three Sisters, Echo Point, Wentworth Falls, Lincoln’s Rock and more, at your own pace.
Can you take us to Lincoln's Rock for sunrise?
Yes — Lincoln’s Rock near Wentworth Falls is a popular sunrise stop, and because our tours are private rather than scheduled, we can time the pickup to get your group there for first light.
How long is a Blue Mountains day tour?
Most groups book a full day, roughly 8 hours, to cover Echo Point, the Three Sisters, Wentworth Falls and Leura comfortably. Half-day options are available if you’d rather focus on one or two stops
