What To Expect

Blue Mountains National Park

We will spend a few hours exploring some of the best Blue Mountains natural landscapes from the options listed below with a series of short guided wilderness walks away from the crowds: * Immerse yourself in a Jurassic wonderland of giant tree ferns and rainforest that has changed little since the time of the dinosaurs. * Wander through secluded groves of towering Eucalyptus trees, serenaded by birdsong as you breathe in the fresh mountain air and contemplate the region's ancient indigenous heritage. * Dip your toes in crystal clear mountain streams that meander through rainforest canyons before plummeting dramatically as waterfalls to the valley below. * Get up close to ancient sandstone cliffs, intricately eroded over millions of years, that are covered in a dazzling tapestry of mosses, ferns and wildflowers. * Discover native Australian animals in their natural environment, rather than in a zoo.

2 hours • Admission Not Applicable

Sublime Point Lookout

One of the most spectacular of all the Blue Mountains lookouts. From Sublime Point you will gaze out from the rim of a vast canyon towards a seemingly endless wilderness of sandstone plateaux, escarpments and gorges filled with eucalyptus trees, wildflowers and Gondwanan rainforest. During the warmer months we'll enjoy a picnic lunch here in the shade of Eucalyptus trees.

40 minutes • Admission Included

Snacks

Experience an iconic Aussie pie or other pastry from an award winning local Blue Mountains bakery.

Amazing experience seeing off beaten areas of the Blue Mountains! Lots of kangaroos! Hiking was a bit tough at times but worth it.

Craig was an amazing tour guide. He had a wealth of knowledge on the history of the area, including special tidbits that not everyone would know about. He clearly was a nature lover and cared very much about the environment and the area he was introducing us to. It was a very engaging uplifting, and beautiful tour. The blue Mountains were incredibly beautiful as well as the rainforest. Loved seeing the cockatoos up close! Thank you, Craig, for an amazing experience!!

This tour was active, original, home-grown, and beautiful. Craig the tour leader is kind, friendly, and informative. The tour has several short hikes that are rather strenuous (but brief) so be aware of that if you have poor knees/hips. Craig made accommodations for a couple of people in our group, but it did mean they missed out on a couple of spots. The rest of us happily scrambled up rocks and through the bush to get to unique views and destinations. I was a solo traveler and had a great time! Craig has top-notch music taste, too (for some of the driving portions of the trip).
A great trip where you get to see the real wild Blue Mountains rather than the tourist bits

A great day out with Craig as our guide. He took us to some really cool places that the average tourist never sees. There was a fair amount of walking on the first few stops and the first one was quite a challenging walk, so make sure you wear sturdy footwear. We had a lunch stop where we ate our pie’s, which were delicious. Seeing the kangaroos in the wild was fantastic and we got some great photos. It was a cloudy evening, so unfortunately we didn’t get to see much of a sunset, but the picnic tea that Craig supplied was a nice end to the day. It was quite chilly once the sun set, so I was glad I took a warm jacket to put on. Be prepared for a very long day, we left at 11am and were dropped off at 10pm.
We had an amazing day in...

We had an amazing day in the Blue Mountains! It was great to be part of a small group. We got to know each other very quickly. Craig took us to places away from the main tourist spots. Stunning views after a bit of hiking. Absolutely worth the effort. We were very lucky with the weather and took some great photos. At the end of the day we saw the Three Sisters in a stunning light and the sunset over the mountains. Craig looked very well after all of us. Thank you, Craig!
Great

Amazing day with Craig whose love of the Blue Mountain is evident throughout the tour. We loved the fact that the tour began at 11:30am and went until return about 10:30pm, which allowed us to spend sunset at the Three Sisters rock formation . The tour visited some of Craig’s favorite overlooks avoiding the crowded tourist route. While there is some hiking, including steps and inclines he was very accommodating to those not able to tackle some of the more difficult terrain. Definitely a must do.
Unique off the beaten path

I cannot imagine another or better way to experience the Blue Mountains! Craig has curated an intentional and intimate experience away from crowds - seriously you will likely be exploring every space he takes you to with your group only. If you value off the beaten path tours, nature, exploring this is the tour for you.
Off the beaten track Blue Mountains experience

Wow! Our family booked a private tour to the Blue Mountains with Craig and we cannot overstate what an absolutely amazing day we had - in fact, the favorite day for all of us from our entire visit in Australia! Craig catered the tour to our wishes and went beyond! Craig knows the area extremely well. We visited off the beaten track locations, experienced the Blue Mountains in a way not many tourists will. We very highly recommend booking with Craig - whether the usual tour or private. His knowledge and care will not disappoint!
Not really what we paid for

The crucial factor for this excursion is the weather. Tripadvisor states that the excursion only takes place if the weather is good, and that in case of poor weather, you will receive a new date or a full refund. However, as I later found, the organiser's own website states that ‘This tour would only be cancelled in extreme weather conditions, whereby it is deemed unsafe to travel into the Blue Mountains National Park.’ Not quite the same thing. Of the 12 promised stops, about 6 were not visited, including the Three Sisters. This was due to fog and low-hanging clouds. Instead, we went kangaroo hunting in Megalong Valley, as most of the people on the bus had not yet seen any in the wild. For us, this was rather boring, as we had already been travelling for 4 weeks and had seen hundreds. All in all, it was a rather disappointing tour due to the bad weather. The guide himself tried hard to save the day. But honestly, he should have cancelled it given the visibility conditions. As it says on Tripadvisor. When I book through Tripadvisor, I don't feel obliged to adhere to the terms and conditions on his website; the terms and conditions on Tripadvisor are valid for me. The 75 metres of steps that you are supposed to climb are not entirely accurate. As you go up and down several times, the total distance is much more than 75 metres. The 75 metres is simply the maximum difference in height between the highest and lowest points and not the sum of the ascents and descents. If the hike is supposed to take 90 minutes, it ends up taking over 2 hours. When you finally catch up with the group as the last one, the guide immediately sets off again, preventing the stragglers from resting. His entire time management seemed more than shaky because he was constantly trying to make the best of the weather-related chaos. Conclusion: definitely use a weather app. If the weather looks bad in the Blue Mountains, be sure to cancel this trip 24 hours before the start and go on another day. Anything else is not worth it and is not worth all the effort.
