Great tour to the Blue Mountains. Our guide Tarry was fantastic. He knows the area very well and showed us not only the typical tourist spots but also some unique places.
He shared many interesting stories about the nature and the region, and also gave helpful tips about Melbourne which was really nice.
Tarry quickly brought the whole group together. Everyone was chatting, laughing and having fun, so the atmosphere was great.
Highly recommend this tour.

A great opportunity to see more than a large city. Very worthwhile with lovely views of beautiful scenery, including kangaroos in the wild. Our guide/driver, Melanie, made the trip both funny and informative. Great tour. Highly recommend.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Yes Dennis, Sydney does have alot to see but some of the best experiences are in the Blue Mountains spotting our kangaroos in the wild. Join us next time for our Kiama south coast tour, many thanks

Response from Host, Mar 2026
Hey Karolina, so glad you enjoyed how we curate the tour and hope you have some lifelong memories and photos
Diane_H, Mar 2026
This was a fantastic adventure hiking through the Blue Mountains with Terry. He is a very knowledgeable guide with professional photography expertise and that provided us with a day to be remembered. He also took us to two great luncheon and dinner venues that were a great way to enjoy the local cuisine. What sets Terry apart is that he tailored this adventure to us and our safety was at the forefront. Full marks for Terry on everything!!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
What a wonderful tour together! Enjoyed the walks, the photography chats as well as the remote lookouts. A great finish too with our dinner venue and enjoy local seafood, many thanks

Just bring a good attitude and it will be completely worth it!! With all of the different stops, you don't get bored with the same theme.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Hi John, yes always pack a smile and it helps the energy of our small group tour. Never a dull moment and we curate different stops for a reason. So glad you enjoyed the tour, thanks!
Ruth_K, Mar 2026
This was a full day with a variety of different activities. The hike in the Blue Mountains to the Cascade Falls was especially beautiful. Lots of steps so you need to be relatively fit, but definitely worth the effort. Michael was an excellent guide and he offered lots of information about the area.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We love our Wentworth Falls walk to uncover some majestic lookouts. Michael is very knowledgeable about his local area too, thank you
Gabriel_C, Feb 2026
Melanie was a great tour guide on this long day of great scenery, food and wild animals. Group size was perfect as Melanie got to know us personally and give us great facts through out the day. You can tell she loves what she does. The tour itself was perfect, with spotting of wild kangaroos to a personal picture with a Koala and the beautiful outlook of the blue mountains. Also the lunch and dinner provided was very good and filling. Would definitely do again. Thanks PictureMeSydney!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Ohh thank you Gabriel and Melanie is an absolute star at her job! We blend so much in the day and love to find an off the radar location to spott kangaroos in the wild. Thanks again
Teressa_D, Feb 2026
Terry was a great guide for our small group. He gave us lots of tips for our stay in Sydney and provided a lot of detailed history of the Blue Mountains and Australia. I felt the trip was a good pace, we had enough time at each spot. The trek down to the waterfall required the most energy but it was not tough. I loved getting up close and personal with the koala, and seeing the wild kangaroos at the end of the day. The views were magnificent! Both food spots had lots of options. Thank you Terry!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Yes we showcase the best lookouts, a more personal up close with koalas and seeing the joey kangaroo in a pouch too! We get your heart beating on the first walk and keep the excitement throughout the tour...many thanks
Harley_K, Feb 2026
Weather is changeable so be prepared. Good walking or hiking shoes a must. Be prepared for some real hiking
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hi Harley, storms in summer are quite unpredictable in the Mountains....but thats one thing we just cant control. Our guides do our best to pivot but Ian got you all to see the Three sisters and some other magical views along the hikes. Many thanks for joining us
Christine_H, Feb 2026
Our guide was delightful and fully invested in creating a great experience. Everything was as advertised. Gorgeous setting, good exercise, great food, animal encounters. Just thrilled!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hey Christine, yes we get your everthing moving...your legs on the walks, your eyeballs with the view and tantalising your taste buds with great Aussie food! thanks so much for your review
Dawn_G, Feb 2026
Trip was awesome! Our guide (Melanie) was great! I went with my 24yr old son and it was a fabulous day. It was nice to hear about everyone’s experiences in Sydney and travels. It was a small group. We laughed, ate, enjoyed the Blue Mountains, and even saw a Koala and kangaroos! Thank you for an awesome experience!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hey Dawn, we want these special memories as a family tour so I am so glad to read your review. Thankyou for joining us at Picture Me Sydney
Judith_W, Feb 2026
Fabulous day out. The itinerary was very well thought out and covered all the beauty of the Blue Mountains area.. The pies were amazing and the venue and food to round the day off were just perfect. The day was made even better by Mel our guide who was bubbly and knowledgeable
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hi Judith, our Aussie pie stop, the views and walks to cap off with a restaurant meal. So glad we ticked all the boxes, thank you
Susan_H, Feb 2026
Great option to get out of town into nature and experience native animals. Daniele was prompt and dedicated to our tour. We had a small group of 5 travelers, so it made everything personalized.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hey Susan and thank you for your review. Our small group tours are the best way to see the Mountains and chat along the way, Thanks again

Our trip to the Blue Mountains with Mel was absolutely incredible and went beyond every expectation. Even though it was one of the hottest days ever, she kept the whole experience fun, organized, and so enjoyable. We saw stunning waterfalls, wild kangaroos everywhere, and so many adorable animals at the wildlife sanctuary.
Even though we couldn’t hold the koala because it was mating season, Mel made sure we still got so many amazing photos on our phones, which meant so much to us. She was full of answers to every question we had and shared so much knowledge throughout the day.
The views were absolutely breathtaking, and every stop felt special. From start to finish, this tour was so well done and truly unforgettable. I couldn’t recommend Mel enough—this was easily one of the highlights of our entire trip.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Oh this review is received with much gratitude. Mel and all my team continue to refine what we do to deliver the best experience possible. Your kind words and time taken to review mean alot to Mel and motivates us to continue to do what we do, thank you so much

Melody did a great job herding our diverse group thru the various stops. Highlights include photo op with Koala bear at the farm. Melody takes amazing pictures The walk to the falls was a fun trail however the pace is too fast to truly enjoy. There are lots of steps and some without hand rails, make sure have good shoes. Remaining stops are lookouts, each more beautiful than the last. Melody did a great job organizing our meals so we wasted no time. Food was good, service outstanding.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Mel loves to show all this region in our fully guided tour. We do clearly advise the first walk is for moderate fitness at a moderate pace bushwalk so we can get to the hidden viewpoints with time to enjoy. Glad you did enjoy the tour and meals and will share with Mel, thank you
LilyLee, Jan 2026
We had Melanie as our guide. She is fun and informative, we had a packed itinerary and she was great!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Hi Lily I am glad you enjoyed our itinerary and Mel is always alert to everyone having a fun tour. Thank you
Barry_T, Jan 2026
The pick up time said 11:30.
At 10:45 we had a call saying where are we.
The rest of the day was good.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Hi Barry, unlike most tours that offer 1 pickup, we offer 4 different pickups for guest convenience. The departure times are clearly detailed in our email confirmation after booking so we can collect everyone and depart Sydney at 11.30am...We note that you had nil communication with us via this booking platform at any time and sure you understand we cannot be at four places simultaneously. If you can share any Viator that conflicted with our clear pickup time of 10.40am we can follow this with Viator, I am sorry this impact your review but happy to hear that you enjoyed our tour.
Malwina_K, Dec 2025

This is a highly curated tour with wonderful walking trails and guides who are well versed in both the geological and indigenous history. Each experience in the itinerary was unique and satisfying. Very enjoyable experience.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hi Jennifer, a blend of history and natural beauty that you capture on our walks and lookouts. Many thanks
Kate_T, Nov 2025
This day trip was expertly planned and executed. Not at all touristy, very local. Amazing food options even for a vegetarian!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hi Kate, yes we have crafted some off the radar spots away from the crowds. Glad to hear you enjoyed our lunch and dinner menu too, regards to you and Andy
jenniferbcooper, Nov 2025
Our leaders, Terry and Dan, were very professional, friendly, informative, accommodating and more. We were llearned a great deal about Australia, aboriginal culture, rainforest, bush, outback, history, geography, preservation of the land, indigenous animals and birds. The day was perfectly planned with our destinations breaking up the drive. The focus was seeing true Australia without any tourist traps or zoos. We enjoyed a visit to a working farm wheee saw wild kangaroos, wallabies and a koala under the care of the farmers. It was a true nature preserve and working farm rather than a tourist trap. Our walks through the Blue Mountains were tailored to the correct pace for our group. Authentic lunch and dinner included and enjoyed by all with different dietary restrictions. Our leaders maximized our time by ordering food in advance and adhering to schedule. It was a fabulous excursion.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hello Jennifer, so glad you enjoyed the tour. There is so much to see we want to show off as much as possible and appreciate the design of the tour. Many thanks
Melissa_S, Nov 2025
I recently took a tour of the Blue Mountains with Mehmet, and it was an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, Mehmet’s passion for the region was evident. His knowledge of the area's history, wildlife, and stunning landscapes added so much depth to the trip. We visited some of the most iconic spots, like Wentworth Falls, but Mehmet also took us to hidden gems off the beaten path, making the tour feel personalized and special. His relaxed and friendly attitude made the day even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore the natural beauty of Australia with an expert guide!
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hi Melissa, indeed Mehmet has been in Australia for more than 20 years and adds a unique, personal story of his travels in our vast country. Thank you for your kind words and will share with him.
peter_f, Nov 2025
Great way to see the blue mountain. Our guide Melanie was awesome. There is some walking up and down hill but even if you don't want to walk there are several view spots up top.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hi Peter, yes our tour is for everyone. Those less mobile can choose a self guided light walk or, as you mention, there are some lovely lookouts. Many thanks
Sabrina_S, Sep 2025
I could not have asked for a better tour to experience in Sydney. The Blue Mountains were incredibly beautiful. I am still not sure which view is my favorite. Words and pictures will not do it justice so you'll just have to book a tour and see for yourself. Our itinerary was top notch and our tour guide, IAN was the BEST. The 10 hours flew by and we were right on schedule. The 2 meals provided were delicious and perfect. The small group allowed a nice private tour feel that was totally intimate and it was so wonderful to get to know one another. IAN was very attentive and knowledgeable; answered all questions and was an amazing story teller. We (me and other solo travelers) learned a lot from him that day. I would definitely sign up for this EXACT tour again if I am ever back in Sydney. Thank you so much; I am truly grateful for this memory! Shoutout to Ian, Kiana and Nic of you're reading this! Honorable mention to Terry, Jonah and Jasper (IYKYK) too! Thank you ALL for an unforgettable day!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Hi Sabrina, so thankful for your review. My team and I strive to deliver this type of experience to our guests - unique, off the radar and personal. Thank you again and have shared your kind words with Ian. Look forward to next time in Sydney touring with us,
robyngreene, Sep 2025
Terri was a fantastic tour guide and the itinerary was exceptional! We saw so much incredible wildlife and scenery with unmatched beauty, and Terri is extremely knowledgeable about the natural history of the region. Highly, highly recommend this day trip with Picture Me!
