The whole day was extremely well planned and organised. Kieran was an excellent guide, being very knowledgeable and entertaining. I would recommend this experience to anyone.

It was a great day out, and the weather was kind all day. Kieran (aka 'snake man'!) our driver and guide was brilliant. He was knowledgeable, professional and kept us on time with the schedule. The lunch was very nice and very welcome after the climb down then up again from the Wentworth Falls. The climb up the Steps of Doom was a real workout, which was possibly played down a bit in the tour info! But really, the itinerary was varied and interesting. It made me want to go back to the Blue Mountains area again and explore some more.

Kirin was an amazing guide. The walk to Wentworth Falls was stunning. It was a really nice tour. The sandwich was really good, we were entertained, the pace of the tour was good. Very well organized and saw many beautiful sights. You need a decent fitness level.

7:30am pick-up with Ben from the Coastal Warriors team and their 20 plus seater coach from central Sydney. First stop was the tunnel lookout, then Glenbrook, onto Lincolns Rock, Wentworth Falls for a 90 minute plus walk and then onto Katoomba and the Three Sisters. Highlight for me was the Falls but the climb back up the steep steps will test your legs and fitness. Ben was very knowledgeable and included a little quiz on the bus. The pace was just right and we packed a fair bit in to a 10 hour tour. Lunch was included too and we pre ordered variations of a ham cheese and tomato salad roll on the bus which was really tasty. Plus a Tim Tam on the way home too. Overall a really great value tour.

We had Glen as our tour guide and bus driver. It was a great experience from start to finish! We met outside a church with benches. Glen personally walked around ensuring he had all his people were there and ready to embark. He clearly explained how the day would proceed. All day it was like herding ducks at each stop but Glen did a fabulous job at getting everyone on and off the bus at each stop. The hike down to the falls at the mountain was amazing. It was a long hike, aprox 2 hours but well worth it. Our group of 5 are all fit but in our 60's and 70's. Glen was patient and informative. He gave us the time needed to safely do the climb. I would highly recommend the day. He ended the day with a TimTam treat. We felt rewarded for our good behavior all day 🤣

Our guide Ben was very knowledgeable of the area and good fun. He gave us great tips at each stop off. The park itself is beautiful. We took the steps down to the Wentworth Falls base, the steps back up were tough so a certain fitness level is needed. Would highly recommend this trip

This was great! Pick us right up in downtown Sydney and brought us to interesting places in the White Mountains. Our tour guide Zach was knowledgable and entertaining. I don't know how we would have done this tour alone (renting a car, scouting spots, getting to the right place, etc.). Highly recommended for people who are visiting Sydney and want to see the Blue Mountains.

- In regards to reviews, a vast majority are actually over on TripAdvisor opposed to the very small amount here
- **Update August 2024**We have noticed an increase of dingoes (wild dogs) in the area scaring off the kangaroos. We also hope that this will return to normal asap. This has affected all tours mentioning wild kangaroos. Apologies
- We highly recommend travel insurance in Australia as our emergency fees are quite high for non citizens
- To maximise time spent in the Blue Mountains we do not offer hotel pickup or drop off. Sydney's public transport is very reliable and efficient. Uber too
