Really great day out! - Visiting from the UK, stayed 6 days in Sydney and keen to see the Blue Mountains. This tour was really good. Dave the guide incredibly knowledgeable, picked us up at our hotel and drove us up to the mountains. Weather wasn’t great but he still managed to find us a view and avoided queues. He also recommended a lovely place for lunch. Finished off with wildlife park and river trip back to Sydney. Thoroughly recommend.

Just for us and the guide. - This day was so pleasurable again in the Blue Mountains. We went to Sydney to see the Pink concert and rang Dave the day before to try his private tour instead of being on a bus with 20 other folk. He showed us parts of the mountains that were more remote that you don’t get to see in a bus trip. We never get tired of visiting the mountains. Thanks Dave you are a gem.

Had the best day ever on a tour. - Going to the Blue Mountains you need Dave. Extremely knowledgeable about all things Sydney also flora and fauna. Particularly enjoyed the railway and gondolas in Katoomba plus brilliant viewpoints. Nice last stop in Leura to visit some cute shops. and a coffee. The ferry return was a great relax after a full day.

Always nice to make a tour. - As we don’t know our way around the mountain the private tour on this occasion was a good choice. We have good faith in this company and they know to show us differing perspectives. We were lucky to have Darren who is most competent and gave us a very enjoyable day out. We chose to be dropped back at our Sheraton hotel which was no trouble for him.

First class tour of Blue Mountains. - Aftet picking us up at our Intercontinental hotel the guide discussed the day with us and adjusted stops to our preferrences. Through the day we visited many different places and viewpoints. We learnt from the guide about bushfires, the animals trees and birds, it was incredible the amount of knowledge he has, you can tell he is very experienced. He helped us buy a picnic lunch in Katiomba which we enjoyed at one of the cliff viewing points. The day exceeded our expectations.

Exciting times and lived every moment. - Did another private tour with a different guide this day as each guide gives a differing perspective and style to the tour. This day we also did more hiking with just the guide. So many other places to see, we never get tired. A really fun day again. We also wanted to go down to the Megalong Valley for a horse ride, so thrilling.

A private tour with Dave is the best thing to do in Sydney. - Dave was a great guide. It was nice this time to make a private tour rather than be on a bus with others. From the outset Dave planned the day with just things that interested us, not too much walking but more of taking us to different vantage points in the mountains that we had not previousy seen. We particularly enjoyed seeing the many gardens of the homes in Leura. We had the best day and will do it all again on our next time in Sydney.

Good times at the Mountain. - We travelled to Sydney for our friends wedding. It seemed the thing to do to visit the Blue mountain. A bus isn't our scene so we called up Blue Ribbon who offer private tours. Just the 4 of us it was cool. They collected us at 8am from our Hyatt hotel. It was an interesting 90 minute drive up to Katoomba with our guide telling us various things along the way. We visited many lookouts and he escorted us on a 1 hour hike which we like to do to be in nature. Lunch at Yellow Deli was a treat - such unusual character. Stopped for a visit to see Koalas at Featherdales then the ferry home. We had the best of days.

Our group had a grand day exploring the mountains, - After quite a few emails with all our questions we chose the Blue Ribbon, sounded good, and it was, Dave outlined the day at collection and he said the day was completely flexible to what we wanted, We were a pain to him but he didn't mind nothing was too much for him. He took us to all the sites and it was a grand day. ,We . All perfect.were a group of 8 friends wanting to have the van to ourselves and a guide.
