Excellent day trip, got to see everything on the itinerary with a few extras squeezed in. Guide (Jeff) was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Did his best to ensure we got the most out of it. Would definitely recommend
Thank you for your recommendation! We're delighted that you enjoyed your day with Jeff and that his experience and knowledge of the Blue Mountains helped you to have such an excellent day.
The trip was great and the guide was incredibly knowledgeable. We had a fantastic time. Featherdale was a wonderful start to the excursion!
Thanks for sharing your fantastic feedback. We're delighted that you enjoyed your time exploring the Blue Mountains. We love all of the animals at Featherdale too!
Ben our guide was great. Beautiful and interesting tour
Thanks for letting us know that you had such a great time in the Blue Mountains with Ben as your guide. Please come again!
We had a great day despite the weather (it rained from start to finish…!) our guide Ben did a great job in challenging circumstances - the fog obscured pretty much everything - and kept us interested and entertained for the day. The walks were lovely and a great lunch at the Leura gourmet deli. Comfortable travel, well organised (I like that we had a confirmation text the day before). Only suggestion would be to include a couple of other pickup points as we were 15-20 mins walk from the nearest one. Thanks Ben for dropping us back direct to our hotel!
Thanks for sharing your feedback. We're really pleased that your guide Ben was able to make the most of the damp day and that you still had such an enjoyable day in the Blue Mountains. We understand your comment about the pickup points and will keep this in mind to see if this is possible in the future. We used to have more pickup options but the morning run in the horrible city traffic could take over an hour which is not a great start to the day for those who are first onto the bus, so we streamlined it to be as quick as possible. We hope that you can come again on a much nicer day!
Amazing day with Tom! He took us to some very cool spots, shared interesting stories about the area, was very professional and a very safe driver. Never felt rushed or hurried. Perfect balance. Would highly recommend this tour!
Thanks for your recommendation! We're so glad that you enjoyed the balance of the day exploring some cool places in the Blue Mountains and learning some interesting stories from your guide Tom.
Our family had an amazing time. The tour guide Raphael was wonderful and had in depth knowledge of Australia, Sydney, and the blue mountains. He also answered the many questions from our kids. We definitely recommend this tour company to anyone that wants to go see the Blue Mountains.
Thank you for recommending the tour! We're really glad that Raphael was able to answer your kid's questions and give your whole family such a great day out in the Blue Mountains.
We spent a full day tour to Blue Mountain - pick up at designated locations in CBD - Featherdale wildlife park , my kids had the best time feeding the wallabies and kangaroos - Hike at the Wentworth falls -lunch in Laura on your own - lookout points at 3 sisters It was a suitable tour for our family of 4 and Stuart was very informative and provided anticipatory planning info along the way.
Thanks for your feedback. We're really pleased that your family enjoyed your time exploring the Blue Mountains with Stuart as your guide, and learned a few things along the way while you had fun!
Lots and lots of stairs. My watch said I climbed 16 floors, down then up! Absolutely heavenly, even though it was cloudy all day. I highly recommend it if you are in good shape. I am in my late 70s and kept up just fine. The group I was with didn't seem interested in taking photos, so they went pretty fast down. I started back up quite quickly so I could enjoy the forest and take photos on the way back.
Thanks for your recommendation! We really appreciate it and are very pleased that you managed the climb down and up the valley so well and got lots of photos. 16 floors is a lot!
Amazing tour to see Fetherdale Wildlife Park and Blue Mountains/Three Sisters in a day. Chris from Activity Tours was excellent. He is very knowledgeable and knows the trails in and out. I’d trust him in the wilderness anywhere. I also appreciate his excellent photo taking and how considerate he was while making sure we were comfortable with the steeper sections.
Thanks for sharing your great experience in the Blue Mountains. We're very pleased that Chris' experience helped to ensure that you were comfortable, safe and thoroughly enjoyed your day.
We had the most amazing day visiting the sanctuary and Blue Mountain Park. Our guide Chris was knowledgeable and delightful. Thank you Chris for an unforgettable day!
Thanks for your positive feedback. We're really glad that you enjoyed your time with Chris as your guide in the Blue Mountains. Please come again!
