Amazing Blue Mountains Tour with everything included - Booked this trip tour through the hotel concierge. Picked up at 6:50 am to make the most of a full day of adventure. Sean was our driver/guide and did an exceptional job with loads of local knowledge and experience. The company and staff live in the Blue Mountain area and have first hand real life experience of all that goes on. First stop, kangaroos in the wild, which isn't a given but we manged to see a few bouncing about, which was brilliant. Breakfast on the barbie at Glenbrook and then the 3 sisters at Echo point which was misty on arrival but Sean said give it 10 minutes to clear which it did!! Up next the Tram, vehicular and train rides with visitor centre. A few stops of more amazing valleys (showing some of the destruction of the fires) before an enjoyable lunch at a local hotel. Then the excellent Featherdale animal reserve is next were you will get a photo taken with a koala bear and view a multitude of animals and birds native to Australia. Ypu also get to feed and pet Kangaroos, wow. You end your day with a ferry boat ride back to Circular Quay with views of the Sydney Harbour bridge and the Opera House and arrive back at around 6.15 pm. Wow, what a totally amazing day with everything included in the price which is unbelievable value for what you receive! So much packed into a totally fantastic day! Thank you Blue Mountain Tours for the trip of a life time!!

Outstanding - Booked this tour on the advice of the hotel concierge. Picked up at 6:40 am for a day full of adventure. Sean was our driver/guide and did an exceptional job. Let me just point out that the owner, Graham, and staff live in the Blue Mountain area and are very knowledgeable and excited about the area. First stop, kangaroos in the wild. Breakfast on the barbie next and then the 3 sisters. Tram, vehicular and train rides are up next then off for an excellent lunch. Featherdale animal reserve is next were you will get a photo taken with a koala bear and view animals and birds native to Australia. You end your day with a ferry boat ride back to Circular Quay and arrive back at around 6pm. Wow, what a great day and everything is included in the price! Sean, thanks for a fantastic day!

The Perfect Day - What a fantastic day! We were picked up at 6:45am and didn't get back to the hotel until nearly 12 hours later. Every minute was filled with new experiences and laughter. Our driver, Hayden, took us on my first "Walk about", and we were lucky enough to see kangaroos in the wild. Next was a scrumptious breakfast provided by Graham and Alex at park where wild cockatoos flew all around us. Back on the bus and onto the gondola to view the Blue Mountains and Three Sisters. We then hopped on a cableway, where Hayden, with his wealth of knowledge and story-telling led us on a Blue Mountain hike, and onto the vertical train ride. We lucked out with spectacular views and weather. From the Blue Mountains we drove to the little town nearby where a delicious lunch was provided. No dilly-dallying because our next stop would be Featherdale Wildlife Park where animals roamed all around us. Checking off one for the bucket list, was the chance to actually touch a koala bear and have pictures taken with them. We also hand fed kangaroos and were able to pet them as well. Our last stop was the ferry boat ride back to a drop off by our hotel. This day was well worth the money and you couldn't have picked better hosts then the three named above. Definitely a five star day!

Blue Mountains, Sydney Australia - We came from California and our Concierge recommended this tour. We had a GREAT time. The bus picked us up on time from our hotel, where we met our driver, Shawn. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and knew all the short cuts around traffic and crowds, because he was from Blue Mountains. Our day was filled with exciting views, a casual walk in the rain forest and great opportunities to explore the Australian outdoors, including the three sisters, a water fall, and a wildlife preserve. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the Blue Mountains from a local perspective... PS. The tour also includes a breakfast and lunch. Not bad for the price.

Give me back my sandwich, you kookaburra! - Our small group tour was pleasantly small, with just our family and another on the trip. The advantages of shoulder season and cruise ships not in town! It was a great day! Sean picked us up exactly on time (even a bit early) and we made our way up towards the Blue Mountains. Due to a current drought and changing ecosystem right now, the breakfast spot doesn’t have the typical kangaroos now. Knowing this, Sean took us a bit off the path to try to spot some - and it worked! We saw several grazing along the roads before making our way to breakfast where there were an abundance of wild birds - primarily kookaburras, but not exclusively. We were joined at breakfast by Alec, who makes a mean bacon and egg sandwich on some amazingly tasty rolls from a nearby bakery. The most surprising part was how the birds would do anything to get a bite of the sandwich, or just the whole thing :) We had been warned to watch out for those sneaky fellas but they managed to surprise us nonetheless. Definitely a good, and funny, story! From there we headed to the famous Blue Mountains spots, where Sean’s local knowledge made for a seamless experience. We loved going opposite the crowds while still experiencing the same spots. Afterwards, we stopped by Featherdale where we had a chance to see many more types of native species and were even able to feed the kangaroos and wallabys. The tour wrapped with a ferry ride back into Sydney Harbour and a chance to take some fantastic skyline/bridge snapshots. All in, this tour was 2 thumbs up and I’d highly recommend for anyone looking to take a day trip. Thanks, Team!! Keep up the great work :)

Best local tour! - Had a fantastic day with Sean who knew all the ins and outs of the Blue Mountains. His local knowledge kept us at the front of the line and away from the bus loads of people so we always had the best seat and greatest views. His mate Graeme provided breakfast and possibly the best entertainment of the day. Top notch tour group!

Definitely the best guided tour - If you are going to book a tour of the Blue Mountains, this is the one to do! Graham and Sean are amazing host/tour experts. From breakfast with the Kangaroos, to learning about the history of the area, we had the best time. Small group, didn’t feel rushed, food in a local pub, all great! DO IT!

A Fantastic Blue Mountain Day Trip - This day trip was amazing! We got a good sense of what the Lower and Upper Blue Mountains were all about. The tour day started early, picking us up at 6:30 am at our hotel, and returning us to the harbour at the end of the day about 6:00 pm. After our hotel pickup and drive out of Sydney, we had a camp style breakfast waiting for us at the Blue Mountains National Park (Lower Blue Mountains) and allowed us ample opportunity to spend time looking for kangaroos and all other wildlife in the area. We then drove to Katoomba Park (Upper Blue Mountains) to see the Three Sisters points and view the expansive canyons filled with Eucalyptus trees. We took the sky tram down to the rain forest below in the Scenic World area. The history of the area, as told to us by our guide Sean, was personalized as he has both family ties and lives in the area. After our visit at Scenic World, we stopped at a local pub for lunch in one of the small towns along the way, and then we traveled onward to the Featherdale Wildlife Refuge. The refuge had a large assortment of birds, koalas, kangaroos, and other animals to see. We ended our day with a catamaran trip down the Parramatta River to the Sydney Harbour, which was beautiful with all the city lights. There were many stops for amenities throughout the day. Our guide Sean, and owner Graham, were amazing hosts on this day trip. We highly recommend this tour as it accommodates small groups rather than the large impersonal bus tours. We had 11 in our tour group and we traveled in a van. We will always remember this day as very memorable. Thank you Sean and Graham for an outstanding tour of the Blue Mountains.

Great small group tour of the Blue Mountains sights and attractions. - Overall, the day trip was fantastic. Sean, our guide and bus driver, was excellent in outlining what we would see and do for the day and giving us a great history of the area including the recent wild fires. The weather was perfect and we saw some amazing scenery. Sean managed to get us to each overlook and attraction before the huge herd of tour buses arrived and often we felt there were little crowds and we had plenty of time to wander around. All the attractions were included and gave you a really good one day overview of the Blue Mountains. Lunch was excellent at the Ivanhoe Hotel. The ferry ride back to Circular Quay was a great way to end the day instead of battling traffic all the way back to the downtown area of Sydney. I would definitely give it 5 starts EXCEPT for a few issues: 1. Their website says “breakfast in the bush with kangaroos”. It should have said “drive around in a rural area for a while in hopes of spotting a kangaroo or two and then drive to breakfast at a local park and playground for middle school children” (who came out for recess while we were there). Breakfast was just “okay” (instant coffee and not many places to sit down) 2. We were unfortunate enough to have to sit in the last row of the bus where the seats were lower and more uncomfortable than all others and difficult to get out of.
