Highly Recommend - Escape the Crowds and David - Visiting the Blue Mountains for a day trip with David did not disappoint! David was punctual, friendly, courteous, thoughtful, and very knowledgeable about Australia, Sydney and The Blue Mountains area. Hi car is clean and comfortable and he really went out of his way to personalize the experience for us. We visited Featherdale where we had close encounters with the animals, we took a gorgeous hike up Wentworth Falls and saw the famous Three Sisters as David regaled us with myths, legends and geological facts about how they were formed. We enjoyed a wonderful pub lunch and poked through a quirky local town. David is wonderful - we highly recommend his SUV tour!

A fantastic Blue Mountains private trip - We had a fantastic tour to the Blue Mountains with our guide, David. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel, right on time, his professionalism and knowledge were evident. He gave us insightful commentary on the region and vegetation. His flexibility with timing allowed us to explore the area at our own pace. David made sure we saw all the designated spots and accommodated our request to be dropped off at Circular Quay. It was a smooth and enjoyable experience, and we highly recommend him to anyone visiting the Blue Mountains!

Excellent private tour of Blue Mountains. - We opted for a private tour of the Blue Mountains with David who was friendly and knowledgeable and helped us craft the perfect tour once he understood our priorities/preferences. He was flexible and he knew some pretty cool out of the way stops to get some great views and avoid tourists. We highly recommend booking this tour should your travels take you to Sydney.

Incredible Experience with a Wonderful Guide - We had a magical trip exploring so many beautiful parts of the Blue Mountains. David was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, kind and patient. We experienced mountain vistas and magical rainforests, but the highlight of our trip was seeing the kangaroos. David provided us with so many memories and highlights from our tour. The vehicle was spacious, clean and perfect for our day trip. We highly recommend this experience.

Awesome time! - We had a great day with Dave on our tour. We skipped the big crowds and saw some amazing scenery. He was excellent, and made sure to accommodate any of our requests. This included an impromptu lesson on how to properly prepare a Vegimite sandwich. If you want a flexible tour with a passionate and dedicated tour guide, this one is for you!

Definitely a recommended tour - My friends and I were visiting Sydney from the United States and wanted a trip to the infamous Blue Mountains without hoards of crowds. David was our choice from many others on Viator and TripAdvisor and it turned out to be the best one. He picked us up from our accommodation on time and negotiated Sydney traffic to the mountains with numerous stops along the way. The weather turned out to be perfect for our day as it had been threatening the day before. We saw all the best viewing spots without the crowds, some included short walks for amazing picture shots. Stopped in Katoomba for a quick pub lunch and our final one at Cahill’s Lookout for Vegemite sandwiches and refreshments. All in all a most enjoyable day with a very good driver and a recommended tour guide for a beautiful part of Australia. Thank you David.

David is Kind considerate and knowledgeable - David e mailed the day before to confirm our excursion. He also texted 5 minutes before he arrived right on time . David was kind considerate and knowledgeable. The weather was terrible but David was quick to adjust the tour to other things to see. We went to a lovely little town in the Blue Mountains and saw the beautiful landscape. Unfortunately due to the weather David asked us what else we would like to see ( The Three Sisters were unfortunately no sisters we could see).He took us on a Sydney city tour . We wanted to go over the bridge and also see the opera house. He even helped take pictures for us. David was definitely worth the money . He had so much knowledge about the history of places and people. I would definitely use him again, he is a class act.

Fantastic bespoke tour - David was an excellent guide. Very knowledgable about everything. Our tour was totally customized so we went exactly where we wanted to go on our own time, and he was great at knowing places that were not swamped with tourists.

The Upside and Downside: A Private Tour in a Small SUV - This private tour gave us an opportunity to customize our day, with a stop in a town called Glenbrook and to the tourist information center there. We were able to stop at places that were not very crowded and the driver was knowledgable about the birds that we came across. The tour itself of the Blue Mountains was good. The downside to this tour was that there was no speaker system in the car, so it was difficult to hear what the driver was saying at times. On a private tour with another company the day before, the driver put on a head set that amplified throughout the back of the van so her voice was crystal clear to us in the back seat. However, with this private tour, the outside road noise heard inside the car was loud because this was a smaller Toyota SUV. My friend said it was very uncomfortable in the back passenger seat since we were sitting for long periods of time. The picture of the vehicle is on the site, which looks like a large SUV, but it is nothing close to it. It was definitely not a luxury SUV by any means. Bottom line, if you're looking for flexibility in your sightseeing day, this driver can do it. However, if you're expecting a luxury SUV to tour in, this is not the tour for you.
