We had Damien as our bus driver most of the day he was excellent at his job, gave plenty of information regarding stops. The booklet was very thorough and plenty of things to see and do. Would recommend extending pass if staying a few days.

Great way to see the town. Missed the "5" mark for me as the office staff appeared too rushed and answers given to questions were not clear. The bus drivers were nice, but some directions to hiking paths were vague. Example: "At honeymoon lookout, just take the easy 20 min walk to Echo Point" When we got off, there appeared to be a path to our left so off we went. After 45+ min walk which was not easy with multiple stairs, we realized we should have taken a path that was to the right of where we got dropped off. We missed it because of the trees. It appears this maybe an issue the bus company may have been aware of because the next day we got on the bus, the driver announced "No stop at Honeymoon Lookout because the town is finally doing tree cutting as tge trees were too over grown." We had 6 unhappy people after that hike which sadly set the tone for the rest of the day.

The staff and drivers are so very friendly and helpful! I would highly recommend this, as it makes walks/hikes easier and quicker.

The Blue Mountain area is wonderful but very big. We did several hikes at several stops and enjoyed our time there.
