Best tour ever, very thoughtful and well planned. It was exactly and more than what we expected. Perfect itinerary for those who looks for a private, quiet yet very spot on locations.

Amazing experience! David was an excellent guide — very attentive, kind, and clearly passionate about his job. You can tell he truly loves what he does, and it shows in the way he explains, helps, and makes everyone feel comfortable. Everything was well organized, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Highly recommended! 👏

Fantastic Blue Montains Tour. Picked up from our hotel by Dave our friendly and knowledge tour expert in his comfortable luxurious 8-seater SUV for a 9 hour tour. Itinerary was totally flexible as nothing was set in stone. We opted for a 90 minute visit to Featherdale wildlife park to see some of the indigenous species including wombats, paddymelons, kangaroos and everyone's favourite the Koala bears. The rest of the journey was centred in and around the Blue Mountains overlooking Jameson valley. Dave knows this area like the back of his hand, and took us to see some amazing views whilst being able to avoid the touristy crowds as he knows the tour company routes and schedules. Along the way Dave kept us informed with titbits of information on local history and geography based on several years experience in the area. We would like to thank Dave for taking us on a memorable day out, and thoroughly recommend this trip to anyone who wishes to have a private tour of the Blue Mountains in a comfortable vehicle with an expert guide. Thanks Dave!!!
Stunning scenery, great guide

Fantastic tour with Dave, who was both friendly and knowledgeable and made it personalised by taking us to places that the big tour companies cannot access. The experience far exceeded our expectations and was a lovely way to end our holiday in Australia. Highly recommend, Laura and Ian

We are a family of four adults and booked a day tour of the Blue Mountains with Escape Scenes. From start to finish, it was a fantastic experience. The vehicle was new, spotless, and very comfortable, complete with USB charging ports for convenience. Our tour guide, Dave, was exceptional. He tailored the entire tour to suit our interests and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the day. He even provided drinks and Tim Tams, which was a lovely touch! Dave took us to a range of stunning lookouts and some hidden gems we would have never found on our own. All in all, it was a spectacular and memorable tour — highly recommended!

Our tour guide Brett exceeded all expectations. His knowledge, enthusiasm and passion made our day extra special. It was lovely to have the options open rather than be with other tourists which made the day very personal and much more fun. 100% recommend.
Fantastic day with Brett!
