Considering the day was raining all day, Bruce did an awesome job showing us the sights of the blue mountains. Manage to get some sneaky videos of the falls between the fog clouds.

The trip was fun. Though the weather was not good when we went there, our tour guide Liz was very experienced so we were still able to see the amazing views. We were picked up on-time and had enough time to appreciate each stop. Liz was very nice, funny and enthusiastic. It shows that he really loves what he’s doing and we admire him for that. Scenic World is a MUST-GO! And the steepest train is so fun that one ride won’t be enough. Overall, we enjoyed the tour and it’s all worth it. Thank you Liz and Oz for this memorable trip.

Really enjoyed this tour and the variety of the zoo, Scenic World and the drive around the views of the Blue Mountains. The scenery was stunning, despite the rain, and the guide varied the order of things to allow time for weather to clear at various points.

Les, the guide, was brilliant, knowledgeable and funny and made the 10.5 hours fly past. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing day in the Blue Mountains with a stop at Sydney Zoo on the way up. Our tour guide Les was awesome. Lots of information about places on the way up to the Mountains and lots of laughs too. Would highly recommend the tour and if you get Les as your guide then you’re in for a great day.
