Very nice experience at the blue mountains. A great escape from the town for a day. Joey is a fantastic guide and he knows the place really well. The best would be to spend some time hiking instead of the pure sightseeing. I think is a must see when visiting Sydney.

Joey was an excellent guide. Scenic world was great and we highly recommend it. Due to rain and poor visibility, we went to Featherdale instead of going to the less traveled areas of the Blue mountains. It was really nice to observe lots of Australian animals and birds up close. Thanks Joey for a great day.
Our tour guide was excellent. Joey showed us the most spectacular sites. If you are visiting this area definitely go with this service
Tour was customized to our interests and physical limitations so as to get the best possible experience. Guide was very knowledgeable of Blue Mountains, flora and fauna.
Joey did a great job showing us the very best of the Blue Mountains. He tailored the tour to what we were interested in. Had a great lunch in Leura at a place he suggested.
We have just returned from a trip to the Blue Mountains made all the more memorable by Joey from Kookaburra Sydney Tours. From the pick up to our hotel to the drop off at our evening restaurant nothing was too much trouble. His vehicle was comfortable and spacious and plenty of bottled water was provided for the trip. His knowledge of the area was insightful and he had done his homework to ensure he knew the optimum time to visit the paid attractions to ensure shorter queues. A real advantage over the larger trips is the ability to get to less accessible view points which made the trip even more special. Joey dropped us a lovely place for lunch and even gave us advice for other things to do in Sydney and Brisbane our next stop. Would recommend this company to anyone wanting a really personal trip at a very reasonable and affordable price point. Will definitely use again for other trips when next in this part of the world.
The day trip to the Blue Mountains was perfect for our time in Sydney and Joey made great suggestions which resulted in us getting to see everything with a few unexpected surprises that we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. Highly recommend!
We found Joey & kookaburra tours through Tripadvisor app. We visited blue mountains, Sydney on Nov 30, 2025. Joey made our day trip to blue mountains very smooth & comfortable. He is an amazing guy...kind, gentle, friendly and very resourceful. His knowledge of the region is vast. His planning was perfect and on time. He guided us through blue mountains-scenic world, and helped us to do all the activities we wanted to do. Took us to beautiful spots around blue mountains and to the Serene Leura village. We had absolutely memorable experience of hiking through Grose valley, thanks to his guidance, company & love for nature. Thank you Joey.
Beautiful scenery - Joey was an excellent guide - very easy to be with and knowledgable. Enjoyed our day with him ! Highly recommend ! .
Great tour. Joey was an amazing driver and guide with great information about all of the stops. Gave us great tips on where to eat lunch as well. Would definitely recommend.
We got very unlucky with the weather and could not see anything at Scenic World. Later, our guide Joey managed to find a lookout where at least some of the clouds had disappeared. Highlight was the small zoo on the way back and feeding and patting the animals.
Joey was great, easy going and very informative and accommodating. Took us to some fantastic lookouts. Highly recommend to anyone.
Highly recommend this tour! Joey was an amazing guide! He knew how to make the best of the time we had and answered all of my son’s questions!
Visiting the Blue Mountains with a private tour director in a comfortable car was a fantastic option. The itinerary was flexible with tour guide Joey being very helpful with his explanations of the various areas and attractions. He communicated extremely well and checked our requirements prior to the tour. He also recommended options he thought would suit our physical abilities and interests. Time for ourselves was also included and Joey has a friendly manner that matched our personalities. Highly recommended if you don't want to sit on a bus and have to wait for others.
Joey was an amazing tour guide. He is very pleasant, accommodating, and made sure that our time with him was efficient and filled with unique landscapes and areas of interest in the beautiful Bllue Mountains. Joey should be your top choice for a tour guide, whether you’re interested in mountain or beach experiences, his knowledge will not steer you wrong. Could not recommend him higher.
A full day's drive out to Jamison Valley, Grose Valley, Scenic World in the national park, and Leura for lunch -- fantastic sights, what a surprise for us North Americans!! Definitely worth the trip!! Thanks to great guide Joey for outstanding narrative!!
Joey is a great tour guide. We enjoyed our day tour very much He tried to make us comfortable and take us where we wanted to go.
