The Blue Mountains is a beautiful area to explore but if you want to get up close and embark upon a real adventure, book this guided abseiling and canyon tour. The first half of the day is spent abseiling, beginning with small cliffs and building up to those more challenging ones. After an included lunch walk to the start of the canyon, wade into a creek, and jump into a rock pool. After some exhilarating water jumps and swims, abseil out of the canyon and into the rock pool below.

From the ground to the plate, learn all about what makes truffle one of the most sought-after and valuable culinary ingredients in the world on this truffle-hunting and tasting experience.

It’s an educational tasting experience the average foodie doesn’t get.
