Private Blue Mountains High Country Day Trip from Sydney

We couldn’t have asked for a better tour. Scott is hands-down one of the best guides we’ve ever had. He was accommodating, funny, and great to talk to. We got to see a wildlife park, try Australian desserts, explore multiple viewpoints in the Blue Mountains (including the Three Sisters and a beautiful waterfall), and enjoy an excellent lunch. Absolutely worth the price for a private tour!

Great Day ! A fantastic guide ( Brooks) and an amazing day . We had a full and delighful day personalized tour with Australian Luxury Escapes , Experience was worth far more than the price we paid .

Great Tour. Scott was a wonderful guide. He navigated the crowds so we didn't have to wait. He was knowledgeable and personable. He was very considerate of my broken toes. We enjoyed his sense of humor and all the Folk Lore he shared.

Brook was a fabulous guide! We left Sydney and trekked up to the Blue Mountains. We stopped for tea and lamingtons, having our snack in a local park. From there, we continued to Blue Mountain National Park. In the park, we saw beautiful vistas, hiked some trails, and visited several scenic overlooks. We had lunch at the Conservation Hut. It was delicious and the view of the Blue Mountains was outstanding! Throughout the day, Brook was engaging, knowledgeable, and friendly. 10 out of 10 would recommend this tour and guide!

Had an amazing trip with Mel, such a great guide. We were picked up from our Hotel in a luxury vehicle, taken to Featherdale Wildlife Park to feed Kangaroos, see koalas and lots of other animals, birds and snakes. The Blue Mountains we went to afterwards were stunning, Mel knew all the best look out spots and secret places away from the crowds. The whole day was fabulous from beginning to end, including the tea/coffee and Lamingtons along with the delicious lunch. Mel was so friendly, knowledgeable and a great photographer for us too, she's a star! Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Sydney area.

We had a wonderful experience with Susie. She was knowledgeable and very personable. She took us to areas that were very peaceful and quiet with no other tourists around. She tailored the tour to our physical needs and our personal interests. Phenomenal company.

We enjoyed this fun filled day with Grant - our lovely tour guide and driver. We set off for the Blue Mountains and Grant kept us fully entertained with his knowledge of this part of Australia and his good humor! We visited the Three Sisters Rock Formation and enjoyed commanding views from several lookouts - Grant also gave us some history of the bush fires that caused so much damage in this area and pointed out the re-growth of the trees and vegetation - Nature is truly miraculous! We then enjoyed High Tea at a lovely restaurant with an amazing view of the gorge, a truly unique experience. Our tour began with a visit to the Featherdale Zoo and we enjoyed interacting the the wombat, kangaroos, and the most colorful birds I have ever seen! Grant was so patient and truly made this tour about what WE wanted to do - He truly tailored it to us.

Our private tour to Featherdale and the Blue Mountains was an absolute highlight of our trip. First of all, I was skeptical that Featherdale would be of interest to our group of 9 with 5 teens/young adults. The website makes it seem like a petting zoo. I was pleasantly surprised- we loved seeing all of the kangaroos, koalas, wombats, birds, croc etc! The kids said that they could have stayed at Featherdale all day ;-) Our guide, Scott, was fantastic! He modified the schedule due to a later arrival in Sydney- making recommendations on what would be best for the group while ensuring we were back on time. He provided such amazing service - going above and beyond to help us move our luggage to the right hotel. Scott also showed us the best spots for photos at various stops in the beautiful Blue Mountains! I highly recommend Scott and Australian Luxury Escapes!

I just returned from traveling to Australia from the US for the first time. Australia has just recently re-opened its borders to international travelers after almost 2 years. Australian Luxury Escapes was able to arrange (2) tours for me with very short notice and I had a great experience on both days! I spoke with one of the owners, Elise, on the phone prior to traveling and she was tremendously helpful in explaining their offerings and what the tours would entail as well as answering other questions about traveling to Australia which was so helpful! I wanted to maximize my time in Sydney when I first arrived which I was able to do in the "Private Essential Sydney Tour". The tour guide was tremendously knowledgable about Sydney having grown up there and was able to accomplish all of the main sights in a half day tour. Doing the tour by vehicle + walking for certain parts allowed us to cover the whole city but also get a closer look at areas of interest. Both vehicles I traveled in felt brand new and were completely clean and comfortable. They offered bottled water and hand sanitizer for use during the tour and a great lunch was included in both tour prices. At the end of the tour, the guide gave me some tips on how I could spend the rest of my day which was great. The second tour I did was the "Private Blue Mountains High Country Day Trip from Sydney" which was also amazing. After a few days in Sydney, it felt great to get out of the city and see more of the beautiful landscape and nature of the national parks region. The area is expansive and would be difficult to cover on your own, especially if you haven't been to the region before. I was able to do this tour with one of the owners, Grant, who has a great knowledge of the region, its history and which locations offer the best views and photo ops! Part of this tour included a trip to a wildlife center which was nice to be able to see animals unique to Australia that you're not going to find just being in Sydney. The center was really well maintained and the staff we encountered were all very friendly. This tour also included a great lunch at the "Boiler House Restaurant" which had great food and amazing views. We did a quick tour of the Hydro Majestic hotel right after lunch which is a true step back in time. I highly recommend this company to anyone traveling to Australia. They have a wide range of unique and curated offerings and both tours made my time in Sydney very well spent! I will definitely use them again in the future and refer family and friends their way.
