Great tour / excellent driver

Kylie our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Saw lot of awesome spots, but we were not told there would be be lot of walking, and when I booked this, I was under impression that we were going off road on dirt track for 4WD but this was not included 😞

Nice tour

Nice tour and really interesting off the beaten track spots. However not much more to be gained than doing the Scenic World.

Overpriced

Sylvia_l, Oct 2025
Our tour guide is the only thing that saved our experience, as he was a lovely person . But the tour itself was a rip off , totally overpriced for what you got ! 3 lookouts in three hours !

Great Truck, Awesome Experience

Speros was a great guide through the blue mountains! I planned this as a surprise date for my partner & he loved it! We ended up being the only people on the tour which meant we got through things quickly & Speros took us to a couple additional spots. We are extremely grateful for the amazing tour of the blue mountains & for the amazing Perentie that made my partner extremely happy.

Must do tour

Spiros was a wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable guide who made our trip a great experience.Travelling off the beaten track in an army truck was great fun and a perfect way to see the sights.

The most fantastic tour of the Blue Mountains

Brian_B, Oct 2024
This was an in-depth amazing tour of some of the most beautiful places in the world conducted by people who weren't just competent tour guides, but became genuine friends. Leon greeted us on time and ensured we were familiar with the vehicle and our experience for the day. He took care to look out for our entire family, especially our daughter with special needs. Leon customized the tour to off-the-beaten path scenic spots that were certainly an adventure, but nothing he knew we couldn't handle. Leon provided amazing stories and background to all the brilliant places he took us. I know it can be tricky trusting a tour company in a foreign country, but this group and Leon were amazing.

You must try this!

Leon, such a well of local and natural knowledge, took the time to explain the surrounding and history - back that up with the experience of riding in the back of an army truck - happy days!

Good tour guide, like pro...

The best tour you can find for the Blue Mountains

MRSSM_P, Apr 2024
We cannot rate this experience highly enough - it is simply the best tour you can pick for your time in the Blue Mountains. Paul was a brilliant tour guide; knowledgeable and interesting. The army truck was comfortable and safe and allowed excellent views as we drove to each look out point. The look out points chosen were spectacular and away from all the crowds. Paul took amazing photos of each group which made the trip even more personal. He educated us on history, nature and geology, but also allowed us time and space to appreciate the sheer beauty of the surroundings. 10/10 all round.

A Christmas gift that was so successful

If you're lucky, you'll be alone on the tour, like me and my daughter. Gave many opportunities to many questions. You can walk sometimes, and as we had to go a distance on the highway, but it was well worth it. What a view she took us to, and what a magical mountain. We went on a three-hour tour. Just riding the car was exciting.
