We are sitting in the One World lounge at LAX waiting for our flight to Sydney. We will be there for 5 nights (via a Marriott Rewards Travel Package). We are thinking of making a day trip to the Blue Mountains and would appreciate insights from anyone who has done that. We could rent a car for the day and drive ourselves, which we don't mind doing and usually do so we have the freedom to stop where we want. An alternative would be to take a tour, which costs about $220 combined for the two of us. Thanks for insights you can provide.
This is our first trip to Australia and New Zealand. Will hit Sydney, Hamilton Island, Melbourne, Queenstown, Rotorua, and Auckland. During the short stay in Auckland we will also take the ferry over to Waiheke Island to tour Destiny Bay Winery, which a former partner of my employer co-founded.
Looking forward to a great trip.
Thanks.
Mike
