WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Sydney Harbour Bridge
Take a scenic ferry ride upon conclusion of the Blue Mountains tour and see the Sydney Harbour Bridge up close from the water.
2. Sydney Zoo
OPTIONAL: Visit the Australian animal area to hand feed kangaroos and wallabies, optional photo encounter with a koala, plus see a giant crocodile, Tasmanian devil, dingoes and wombats and walk through Australia's largest nocturnal exhibit to see the animals that are out and about at night.
3. Charles Darwin walk
OPTIONAL: Tread in Charles Darwin's footsteps when he visited in 1836 along a trickling creek amongst native banksia, wattle and tree ferns, making the area famous.
4. Wentworth Falls Lookout
Incredible canyon views, waterfall pictures and cliff edge hikes. There are a few walks to choose from that go down to or overlook the Wentworth Falls or Empress Falls at the Valley of the Waters which is a harder walk. Depending on our time and fitness levels I will recommend this walk or some easier walks in the surrounding area.
5. Leura
Time depending peruse boutique stores, homewares and a family owned hand-made chocolate store. We will definitely drive slowly down the main street of this quaint village.
6. Echo Point Lookout
See the inspiring Three Sisters sitting out there all by themselves.
7. The Giant Stairway
Not for the faint hearted. Descend steep steps onto the first of the Three Sisters rock outcrops for an exhilarating experience. Optional and time depending.
8. The Three Sisters
The most photographed landscape of the Blue Mountains.
9.
OPTIONAL: Ride the word's steepest train and two gondola cable car's over the Jamison Valley. Walk through an ancient rainforest around an old coal mine. Great family fun.
10.
Interesting perspective of Mt Solitary and see the location of a 1920's landslide. Look into the Megalong Valley from here as well.
11. Cahill's Lookout
Short easy walk down to a point that overhangs the Megalong Valley and Boar's Head - an interesting shaped natural pillar. DIstant views of a couple of wineries and the Jenolan Karst Nature Reserve.
12. Katoomba Falls
Take even concreted steps down to pretty Katoomba Cascades and continue on through a tree fern grove to the tumbling Katoomba Falls. Spectacular viewing 200 metres above the canyon floor.
13. Wentworth Falls Lake
A local hangout on weekends of this pretty high altitude lake. Feed the ducks, eastern Swamphens and Eurasian coots.
14. Lennox Bridge
An optional detour to Australia's oldest mainland bridge that was built by convicts. Time depending on our drive back towards Sydney.

Ben was an excellent guide. He took us to the zoo where we were able to hand feed a kangaroo and an emu. We also got our picture taken with a koala. We then spent a lot of time hiking to waterfalls and seeing the three sisters from all different angles. Lunch was amazing as well. Highly recommend this tour and the guide

What a perfect day! The Blue Mountains, 3 Sisters, Scenic World etc.. were so beautiful.
We had an awesome tour guide, Ben who shared with us many insights into the areas we visited, along with info about Sydney as well, and other interesting facts about all of AUS.
Ben was engaging and made the day so much fun!
We felt very lucky to have picked this tour and to have Ben as our guide!
We hope to return someday and have Ben show us around again.
Thanks again Ben for making our last day in AUS so special!

This was a perfect day out seeing the Blue Mountains! Ben, our tour guide, was splendid!
Prompt and kind, he was highly knowledgeable about the area, and shared facts with us about the mountains, animals and plant life. The drive to and from the mountains was smooth, and he had bottles of water for us as well. Ben communicated with us before AND during the tour, sculpting an experience that included all the things we really wanted to see and do. The hikes weren't too strenuous, but there were always moments to stop if we needed to. The waterfalls were gorgeous, the rainforest crisp and cool, and we also had the chance to do Scenic World, and even take a lunch break with a stunning view. Pacing was relaxed, and Ben never rushed anything. Highly recommend and would do again!

Great day out with Ben to see a small part of the Blue Mountains National Parks. We added in a visit to Scenic World, which we really enjoyed.
Ben adapted our private tour to avoid the crowds and to take into account our stiff joints to make sure we still had a great experience. His local knowledge made the trip even more enjoyable. Fully recommend

Visiting the Blue Mountains was an unforgettable journey through one of Australia's most iconic landscapes. The hiking trails Ben took us on were a perfect balance of challenge and reward, catering to our skill level. His wealth of knowledge, passion for adventure, and genuine hospitality transformed what could have been a simple excursion into an immersive and transformative experience. For anyone seeking to explore the wonders of the Blue Mountains, I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on this journey with Ben as your guide.

Ben was fabulous! We discussed our wish list ahead of time and he was on it! We included a stop at the zoo first. He had pre-purchased early admission tickets and we buzzed right ahead of the crowds. The weather wasn’t great, but we still saw some beautiful views! Ben joined us for a tasty lunch in Katoomba. He was polite, informative and patient with us (Americans)! He has travelled the world over and shared many of his exciting adventures. We really enjoyed our day!

This blue mountain tour with Ben was wonderful. He provided an interesting and descriptive conversation as we rolled along to the blue mountains. We made a stop at Sydney zoo which we loved. It provided us a great opportunity to see the native Australian species up close. We then continued to the blue mountains and made various stops, it included the Scenic world trams which were fabulous. The views were outstanding.

Of special note to travelers with conditions that can affect mobility from time to time, I definitely think you should consider Ben. He was completely understanding and flexible with determining how to move around comfortably for us when my husbands condition flared a bit. The next day we did a Sydney tour and he totally customized it to what we needed and wanted (shopping for me and museum for hubby) and was right on target with limiting our need to walk around too much yet still seeing everything, quite a feat in a busy city! Getting to drive around centennial park was a special treat.

I will highly recommend Ben to family and friends!
