We had an absolutely amazing day as a family of 6 on a full day fully customized Blue Mountains tour. Our experience from start to finish was 6 stars. We were blessed to have Stuart - an amazing guide with knowledge on everything you could throw at him, who was also a careful driver, and very considerate and flexible, constantly adjusting to what we wanted to do and see, and suggesting perfect options whether it was activities, places to eat, or best vistas. We were lucky to have a perfectly clear perfect weather day, which is such a bonus in the mountains to appreciate the vast jaw dropping panoramas. Stuart knew everything from the history to the types of plants and wildlife and could draw our attention to hidden gems and hidden details that we would never have known about. We also had incredible interactions with Australian animals at a wild life park and once again Stuart was amazing at explaining everything about them, giving tips and so on. The drive to Blue Mountains from Sydney takes roughly 2 hours - we were in a luxury Mercedes van where Stuart had drinks and even snacks for us and the time flew as the entire time he was telling us incredible information - he was also full of humor and we were laughing constantly. All in all we were just incredibly spoiled, and have nothing but the best things to say. Our tour even last longer than it should have and Stuart was more than happy to give us all the extra time and attention. We feel like we parted as friends. If you are lucky to have Stuart on your tour give him a high five from all of us for the memories of a lifetime, which this tour truly gives!

Itinerary
Wentworth Falls offers a range of bushwalks and panoramic views of the Jamison Valley. We can follow trails which wind though tea-tree forests, fern gullies, cave overhangs and past a variety of lookouts. Together we’ll select the appropriate grade of walk for your group. Our guided walks can range from 15 minutes to 2 hours and include the Wentworth Falls Track, Darwin’s Walk or the Undercliff Walk. 30 minutes to 1:30 minutes depending on interest and walks selected.
Each of the villages of the upper mountains – Leura, Katoomba, and Blackheath – have their own character. All three offer excellent lunch options and charming streetscapes. There are cafes, bistros, and pub meals. Or meat pies and take-away sandwiches if the day calls for a picnic with a mountain view. If fine dining is of interest to you and your group – we’re happy to make recommendations and bookings ahead of time
In Katoomba we can follow the Cliff Drive, pulling in for views over the Jamison Valley. If you want to visit Scenic World, this is time. Our final stop is always Echo Point in Katoomba and the postcard view of Three Sisters in the afternoon light. 1-3 hours depending on interest and activities
If we go to Blackheath a visit to one or more of the lookouts over the Grose Valley are in order: Pulpit Rock, Anvil Rock, or Govett's Leap.

We booked a private tour with Sydney Adventure Tours with Craig as our guide, and let me tell you — it was nothing short of magical! From start to finish, the day was action-packed yet so easy and leisurely, perfectly tailored to our pace. Craig made sure we didn’t miss a thing, taking us to all the best sights around the stunning Blue Mountains. The highlights? A breathtaking hike to Wentworth Falls (Mother Nature at her absolute finest!), a visit to Featherdale Wildlife Farm where the animals stole our hearts, and plenty of delicious pit stops, including a cozy brunch spot ‘Cafe 2773’ and, of course, ice cream at Josophan’s Ice Cream Parlour!🍦 But honestly, the real star of the day was Craig. Such a lovely guy — by the end of the tour, we had practically adopted him into our family. He made the whole experience fun, warm, and so personal. We can’t recommend Sydney Adventures enough. If you’re looking for a magical day filled with unforgettable moments, this is it. Thank you, Craig, for a day we’ll treasure forever!
Our guide Stuart was informative, flexible, accommodating and a pleasure to be with. He genuinely wanted us to enjoy our time and get the most out of our experience.
We had a city tour of Sydney with Craig and a Blue Mountain tour with Ben. Both were memorable and simply outstanding. They have a profound affection for their city that is contagious. Ben is full of fun facts about Australia and provided an in depth tour of the Blue Mountains. We learned about the flora, fauna and the history of the region. Both were punctual, knowledgeable and personable. They offered great recommendations for restaurants and for things to do in Sydney. The vans were spacious and comfortable. I highly recommend the company and will plan my next trip with them when we return to Australia.
We did a private blue mountain tour and could not ask for anything better. Our driver and guide Rebecca was the best we have had in all our travels. Beautiful clean well maintained Mercedes van arrived on time driven by a very pleasant, safe driver Rebecca. If anyone wants to visit Blue mountains on their trip to Sydney go with none other than this tour company. The owner Craig is a laid back guy with some awesome staff like Rebecca in his team. They have both private and small group tours. If you are booking a private tour ask for Rebecca as your driver and guide.
Featherdale wildlife park was perfect for our two families with 2yr olds. We got the Aussie wildlife experience and the toddlers fed the kangaroos and petted the koalas. The blue Mountain View’s were breathtaking and Naomi our guide was absolutely amazing…took us to some amazing spots that weren’t packed with other tourists and was great with the kids..they had car seats ready for our trip and singing and soothing the kids as they got tired and cranky..highly recommend!!
Our good friends arranged this private tour as part of the celebration of their daughters wedding. Craig's mini coach was really comfortable and he shared a lot of interesting information on the way to the Blue Mountains and during the guided tour he gave us during our visit to the visitor areas. Highly recommended.
My family took two private tours with Craig this past week. One was a day trip to Blue Mountains and another to the Southern Coast. We enjoyed ourselves very much. The Mercedes van was spotless and very comfortable. Travelling with Craig is like having a friend take you around. He is friendly and personal and makes an effort to understand our interests and meet our needs. He was also very flexible and planned the itinerary very well. We never felt rushed and he knew where to bring us instead of just to touristy spots. He is knowledgeable, professional and responsive to our emails or whatsapp messages. His tours were the highlights of our stay in Sydney. Highly recommend this company.
