Wonderful views + experience

5.00I was cautious at first about booking such a long tour, but it turned out to be an experience I'll always remember. The stops offered amazing views of the Blue Mountains and surrounding vista. The driver/guide was great at providing info without constantly talking the whole time. I appreciated this, as some tour guides can be overwhelming like that. He made sure we knew about times to return to the bus and where food/water and rest stops were located. The value of this trip is amazing for the duration and what you can see. Make sure you were sunscreen and have good comfortable shoes equipped. The hikes are well worth the views. Just make sure you have plenty of battery life to take those photos. (There are USB chargers on the bus, so bring a charging cable.)

5.00excellent! Since the departure time was 12 o'clock, I had plenty of time to prepare. The forest trek to get a close-up view of the Blue Mountains was a bit arduous, but it was worth it.
Enjoy the golden hour with no tourists around!

5.00A great day! I hesitated taking other tours that left earlier and covered more activities but I do not regret my choice! The tour takes you to multiple locations with great scenic views that you enjoy with almost no one else around because the tour is later in the day! The bushwalk is definitely a highlight, you get to enjoy caves, little river streams and waterfalls at the golden hour with only birds making any noise. The sunset is beautiful too! Some people said that the guide didn’t talk much and doesn’t go with you everywhere but it’s not completely true. He does come with you to the bush walk and gives lots of explaining. The rest of the time he just explains where things are and let you go and enjoy at your own pace, which means you don’t have to walk around like a flock and you can wander freely, grab a coffee or explore. My dad doesn’t speak English and still had a great time! I chatted a lot with the guide and he was very friendly, just engage the conversation and relax! N.B: Prepare your food if you’re picky, water bottles and clothes change in advance! It can be rainy or sweating hot.
Spectacular

5.00Spectacular! The guide and driver was unbelievable. Knowledgeable, kind, kept us informed. The blue mountains are a must see. So many spectacular vistas. Feels like the Grand Canyon of NSW.
Awesome day exploring the Blue Mountains

5.00Our tour guide (Greg) definitely loves his job and is very enthusiastic and engaging with his stories. He did a great job of keeping everyone safe and providing clear communication throughout the whole tour as we explored all the beautiful Blue Mountains and waterfalls. The day is probably a bit too long - we clocked up almost 12km and 47 flights of stairs (that did include approx half hour walk to and from the tour meeting point). We got home exhausted but it was a perfect day even with the temperature in the high 30s!
Spectacular views and incredible hike

5.00If you come to Sydney you must see the blue mountains. This was an incredible tour. Greg took us to the most breathtaking lookouts and the day ended with a challenging but gorgeous hike to see waterfalls, cliffsides, and sunset. The day was epic. Along the way, Greg told us interesting stories and provided engaging history about Australia. The timing was perfect to avoid crowds. Warning: don’t bring anyone who isn’t in good shape for a major hike. There were railings and the footing was ok, but my 80 year old mom who walks 2.5 miles a day and does Pilates struggled! She was able to skip the most extreme climb area at the bottom but it was still hard. Also, we misunderstood the meal situation. At the first stop into town around 2pm you must buy both lunch and dinner to eat on the go - things like sandwiches or meat pies. There is time to eat lunch on the bus and dinner during sunset viewing (carry on the hike). We thought there would be one more stop for dinner but came back hungry after 10pm! Also, be ok with touring with a bus full of people and wildlife can be hit or miss - we didn’t see kangaroos but saw several cockatoo. Overall, if you are looking for epic views/hiking of the blue mountains this is an outstanding tour not to be missed.
Super beautiful, individual experience

5.00We had a wonderful experience here. Besides the typical tourist destinations we had a fantastic hike with spectacular views and waterfall.
Great Guide, bad weather
Taylor P,,Jan 15, 2026

3.00The tour guide was a 5 star, the weather was a 1 star. Although you cannot control the weather, the travel company can control if they give the people on the tour the option to cancel if the fog will be heavy and you will not see the Blue Mountains at all. With that said, I rated this a three because the tour guide was amazing and we did do a hike to a waterfall in replacement of seeing the actual views of the Blue Mountains. I just wish they would have said, due to visibility we want to give you the option to change your day or cancel.
Traumatized

3.00It was overall a ok tour but I would leave out the kangaroo part in the tour because all we saw was a large dead kangaroo along the road. So a bit disappointed and traumatized to see that. We came to see wildlife in Australia but the tour guide took us to a quite unpleasant restaurant where people were drunk and screaming.
Thick fog
Marco L,,Jan 13, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
1.00The tour was carried out despite the presence of thick fog that did not allow you to see anything. The guide still made the whole route despite it being impossible to see absolutely nothing. It is incorrect to take tours that rely on seeing views without being able to see anything.
