Spending 10-11 hours on a bus with 60 other tourists, being led round a cramped zoo, a cheap cafe lunch, rushed through the scenic highlights and on a boat with overpriced cafe/bar is not my favourite form of tourism.
On Sundays you can travel anywhere on Sydney's public transport card for $2.70 That's your train fare to and from the mountains, bus to Echo Point and Scenic World and river Ferry from Parramatta.
Total $41.70 leaving you $130 better off to have a good lunch at one of the Hipster Cafes in Leura. It gives you time to explore the valley floor and/or walk the cliff top from the cable car to Echo Point.
