Can we book this trip again! - We booked this trip so we can see the Blue Mountains. On that trip we went to a beautiful waterfall. It was a nice climb to the bottom of that waterfall, the nature was very beautiful, on the way up everything was explained, if we had a question there was always an answer. We got some nice pictures of the waterfall and the surrounding area. That memory will stay with us forever.
