Private Blue Mountains Tour | Waterfalls, Koalas & Views

Australian Adventure Company provided one of the highlights of our time in Australia. Mary and I spent the day exploring the Blue Mountains with Sam, the owner, and came away with a real appreciation for the company he has built. Sam’s local knowledge took us far beyond the standard tourist stops, including remote trails leading to breathtaking cliffside locations where we were completely alone in nature. He also introduced us to wonderful local cafés and a fascinating art shop with truly unique pieces, the kinds of places we never would have found on our own. We also genuinely enjoyed Sam as a person. His easy, natural personality and sincere commitment to taking care of us made it feel less like being with a tour guide and more like exploring with a knowledgeable local friend. Traveling in his beautiful Mercedes added to an already first-class experience. While we didn’t personally tour with the other guides, it was clear that Sam’s approach to service reflects the culture he has created throughout Australian Adventure Company and his team. They may not be the least expensive option, but we felt the experience far exceeded the cost. If you’re looking for something beyond the typical cookie-cutter tour, a personal, authentic experience with local insight and places you’d likely never discover on your own, we wholeheartedly recommend Australian Adventure Company.

Sam was such an amazing tour guide. The car was really comfortable on the way there, and we were picked up right on time. We hiked up to Lockleys Pylon (never heard and a hidden gem) and honestly, it was one of the most memorable and fun hikes we’ve ever done. Sam made the whole experience so fun and unique, and was happy to customise the trip to suit our preferences. It was unforgettable and we’ll definitely book again to try some of the other Aus Adventure Co. tours which I know will be just as good.

Our second day with Gabi was spent in the Blue Mountains & surrounding areas. We had a wonderful day, Gabi was kind enough to pick all the spots that we would love. Each one was a beautiful as the last. We loved every lookout & viewpoint that she took us to. If you’re coming to Sydney we highly recommend booking with The Australian Adventure Company. Also, book the two day tour, you won’t regret it.

Our day in the Blue Mountains on our private tour with Gabi was our favourite day in Australia. Every stop was breathtaking, with something new to see and learn. Gabi was a great tour guide, full of energy, enthusiasm and knowledge. We went to an awesome local restaurant for lunch with great food and nice cold Australian beer.

Alex was a wonderful guide! Very knowledgeable about Australia and its wonderful animals.

Had a great time touring the blue mountains with our awesome guide. Learned a lot of history and saw some great sites. Make sure you Get some chocolate at the shop in town and get some ice for your water :) Would def recommend

Gabby led us perfectly through that day. Perfectly organized and the most beautiful places selected. Always shared sound knowledge. We felt very safe and comfortable with her. At no time did we feel that our questions were annoying or inappropriate. At this point a big thank you for this wonderful day!

Great experience from the start. Was contacted by Sam who gave us several options for our day and to work out the itinerary and key areas of interest. They were also very accommodating in being able to switch days and number of travelers. When it came to the tour Alex lead the way providing an unforgettable experience and all around wonderful day. Highly recommend the Blue Mountains and The Australian Adventure Company.

This was a fantastic trip! Alex was right on time picking us up from the ship terminal. He was a great guide taking us to all the places we wanted to go and telling us all about what we were viewing. He also answered all our questions about the Sydney area and Australia in general. He has a wealth of knowledge! His car was spacious and extremely comfortable. The Blue Mountains are beautiful and Alex did a wonderful job making sure we saw them in all their glory. I would highly recommend doing this trip with Alex!!

We had a lovely time with Alex. We went to the Featherdale Wildlife Park first and saw all the local Australian animals. You can buy a cup of food and feed the animals (kangaroos included). Next we went to see a waterfall, Three Sisters, and a lovely viewpoint. Stopped for lunch at an Australian pub, and then saw another waterfall. Beautiful scenery all around
