We had a lovely day with Chris as our guide. We asked Chris loads of questions and he answered all of them very patiently. He pointed out a lyrebird we never would have seen by ourselves. The bonus was the lunch. I didn't expect much, but my falafel dish was amazing, filled with vegetables I couldn't even eat it all.

The tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was on time and made sure that we had all of our needs met while we were on the tour. I would highly recommend this tour to a friend and highly recommend this tour guy to continue with his work

We had a great time with Dave(Pinno). We went to the zoo and then to the Blue Mountains. It was a clear day with great views. Highly recommend Daves Tours.

Despite the inclement weather, this tour was amazing. My family of 4 enjoyed the sights and the informative talk of our tour guide. The lunch was very tasty. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and very fun. We enjoyed every minute and would highly recommend.

We did the Blue Mountain tour with Colin as our guide. He was awesome! Friendly and very engaging and able to answer any question posed. He kept us on time to ensure we maximized our tour and pointed out many, many tips to make the trip to the Sydney Zoo, the Blue Mountains and all of the points even more memorable. The greenhouse lunch included was also amazing as were all of the recommendations. We can’t recommend Dave’s Tours Blue Mountain tour or Colin enough!

Wonderful day trip full of excitement! Our guide did a great job keeping our group moving smoothly and on time. Our tour had 7 people (including my family of 4). Our guide shared lots of details on our itinerary during the drive to the zoo and had even more knowledge to share about the Blue Mountains as we made our way. Sydney Zoo stop was so enjoyable. We got up and close to lots of Australian wild life. Add on the koala experience for an up close and personal meet and greet! We arrived before the zoo opened so had a good head start before the tour buses and had time to wander around for an hour or so before heading to the Blue Mountains. Lunch at Sorensen's Glasshouse and Gardens was lovely. Lunch and a beverage were included in the tour. Delicious!! Quick stop at Josophan's Fine Chocolates for some hot chocolate and picked up a few gifts for back home. Stopped at the most scenic of overlooks, Lincoln's Rock, to take in the sweeping, natural beauty of the Blue Mountains. And then visited Scenic World to have a wander through the woods. Our group was extremely lucky to spot a Lyrebird digging around for bugs on the forest floor. We experienced the Scenic Railway which is in the Guiness Book of World Records for the steepest passenger railway in the world! And concluded with a ride on the Cable Car. Both enjoyable ways to experience the beauty of the blue Mountains. I recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the Blue Mountains and only have 1 day available. This tour worked perfectly with our busy schedule and my entire family thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. Bring bottled water and maybe a snack for the ride. We had time to look at the gift shops at the zoo and scenic world. I also made sure to have cash to tip the guide at the conclusion of the trip.

We like this trip! The view is amazing, koalas are so cute, and our guide Dave is knowledgeable and fun. Only one thing I think not perfect is that it's a little bit hurry for me.

What a fabulous day out in the Blue Mountains. A small group tour (only 4 of us) with our brilliant tour guide Chris who knew so much about the area and the places we visited. Blue Mountains were just stunning, scenic world and the Zoo were great. As a small group tour we were given access to the zoo much earlier than the general public so it was like having your own private zoo tour !! The excursion included a cafe style lunch but the tour description really didn’t do it justice. We stopped at a beautiful glass orangery in woodlands where we enjoyed delicious home cooked food. We would both thoroughly recommend this trip especially if Chris is running it, what a great man and great value for money.
