What are people saying about Blue Mountains

PRIVATE Blue Mountains Scenic World Wentworth Falls & Cruise Tour

Deanna_B, May 2026

Australia Blue Mountains Tour

This excursion was fantastic! We were a group of six adults. Our tour guide, Joseph, arrived early in a very comfortable private vehicle. We were able to communicate before the tour by WhatsApp, which gave us peace of mind about our tour that we had booked months in advance. Joseph, or tour guide, was very knowledgeable & entertaining throughout the whole trip. He was patient, a good driver, flexible & always had our best interest in mind. We explored the Blue Mountains & were able to get fantastic pictures & create wonderful memories! If we go back to Australia, we will definitely request Joseph. This is the second or third time I have used Viator while cruising & I am very pleased with them. Excellent tour!

Fun day with many experiences!

It was a fun day to the Blue Mountains! Pickup was on time. Van was very comfortable. Driver provided interesting commentary along the way. The overlooks were amazing! Scenic World provided some breathtaking views. The tram and gondolas were fun. Featherdale Animal Park let us feed the wallabies and gray kangaroos. Getting dropped off at the Olympic Village ferry terminal was a bonus! The ferry ride back to Circular Quay gives another perspective of this amazing city! Recommend this experience!

Incredible views with an awesome guide

We had an amazing time on this tour. Everything was well organized and the itinerary hit all the best spots. Our guide Jason was fantastic—super informative, entertaining, and clearly passionate about what he does. He made the whole experience even better. The views and walks were breathtaking and the visit to Featherdale Wildlife Park was a very fun experience. We never felt rushed and Jason gave us many tips to make the trip more enjoyably. Highly recommend!

Blue Mountains

Don’t miss the animal park. Australia has so many unique animals. Feed the kangaroos. The Blue Mountains are stunning. Our amazing guide James knew exactly where to go for excellent views. He’s very knowledgeable of the area. He went out of his way to make sure we received the tour we wanted.

Blue Mountains Scenic World & Scenic Zoo Day Tour

Talia_B, Mar 2026

Awesome day!

The tour was great! We did not hire a car for our trip so the guided tour was perfect for us. Jacky was a very hospitable guide. There was enough time at each spot to enjoy everything we wanted to. Pick up was a little confusing as there were so many tour groups being picked up at the same place at the same time. We arrived early but almost missed our bus. I would suggest either provided a photo of the tour guide or put a sign on the outside of the bus and provide those details.

Cathleen_B, Jan 2026

Our tour was top-notch with Dave!

Our assigned guide, Dave Taylor, was a great, flexible, knowledgable host for the day. He picked us up at our hotel on time and adjusted the tour along the way as he started to get to know us. For example, he heard us talk about birds and flora and brought us to places to see each. He answered loads of question we had about Australia and knew Scenic World by heart, as well as other Blue Mtn "must-see" locations. He also found a lovely place for us to eat in Katoomba that was healthy and delicious. Lastly, our weather was very hot today, so he adjusted the end of the trip to help us manage the heat. Five stars!

Bill_D, Jan 2026

Escape to the Blue Mountains - fantastic !

David is incredibly knowledgeable about the Blue Mountains, the walks and the towns. He helped us see things that you will find hard to see on any other tour because he points out things like the carnivorous plant that only grows in one location on a single rock ! He is also super accommodating when it came to our preferences and gently guided us away from the mainstream. We had an exceptional experience over the entire day. Highly recommended !

Would Tyler recommend...

Would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the Blue Mountains—especially if they can have James as their guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history, not only of the Blue Mountains but of Australia as a whole. A fantastic way to spend the day!

Blue Mountains Hop On Hop Off Tour

Lisa_M, Oct 2025

Great stop locations plus handy info booklet.

Easy to book - viator sent me email with QR code. Bus driver writes date on booklet which becomes your ticket. And then called the office to get my booking code for the included Scenic World rides. Stops at convenient locations around Katoomba, Scenic World and Leura. Get off one stop, walk along the Prince Henry Cliff walk and get back on at the next stop. Runs every hour but doesnt sit waiting for the exact departure time at each stop, so best to get to your stop 5min early. Drivers are friendly and helpful. And the booklet you get is so comprehensive to make the most of your stay, inluding hiking trail information. Very impressed with this service.

Blue Mountains Full Day Guided Tour

Gareth_H, Aug 2025

Great day in the Blue Mountains

We had a really good day with Speros on our private tour of the Blue Mountains. As others have said the day is tailored to your individual interests - we chose waterfalls and wallabies and Speros ensured we saw lots of both as well as amazing viewpoints. He was very knowledgeable and great company. We enjoyed some good banter and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Highly recommended.

SheikhFatir_N, May 2025

Loved every bit of it

One of the most surreal experiences of my life. I was scared yet had so much fun! My wife and I did this back in December (late in posting the review) but an amazing experience from the word go. I would 100% recommend this to everyone who is in Sydney. It can be scary but put your trust in the more than capable guides. You will love it!
