Loved this excursion - The guide was great and the transportation was excellent. Wear comfy shoes and clothes. The whole trip was great. The walk down to the waterfall may not be accessible for some people. They provide an alternative to a scenic bus ride. If you are healthy the waterfall is beautiful

Wonderful day - This is a great tour, and I highly recommend it. We started at Featherdale Wildlife Park. We had such a good time feeding the little kangaroos and taking our time walking through the park looking at the array of exotic animals and birds. The Aboriginal Experience was so much fun and of course informative. Jeff was our driver, and he was delightful. He was informative and made sure everyone was having a good time. He asked for feedback on where he took us for lunch, which was a pie place. I really liked it. There were so many choices for savory pies and/or sweet pies. The food was good. The Blue Mountains are beautiful. When we returned to the city Jeff wanted to drop everyone off near or at their hotel. He did not know that there is a load and unload zone in front of the Crowne Plaza and when he pulled up to let us off, he did not see that it exists because there was a sign that said no stopping. It also said load and unload. Anyway, all in all a wonderful experience and I would gladly do it again.

An Awesome Experience! - I chose this experience to learn more about the Aboriginal culture. It surpassed my expectations! Both guides were full of information. The welcoming ritual by our Aboriginal guide was a meaningful beginning to our walk with him through the rain forest. Our group was small and our driver guide was so helpful and knowledgeable. By starting early in the morning so we missed the crowds. This was a highlight of our trip.

Wonderful - The best part of our first visit to Australia. The tour would normally be canceled if less than 6 people. But Maneshe proceeded with just 3 on board. Maneshe has a deep well of knowledge from which to draw and is happy to share history (local, global and personal) as well as geographical, flora, and fauna. Yarmadeeri's folklore, storytelling and passion for the original people and blue mountains was evident at every turn. The blue mountains, 3 (7) sisters, and katoomba falls-- all stunning. (Personal note: I have a condition that results in severe muscle pain, fatigue and other issues...so this approx 2 mile hike/day trip meant 2-3days being essentially bedbound afterwards... and I would totally do it again... ) Deep warmth and appreciation to Maneshe & Yarmadeeri

The REAL Sydney experience - We were blown away by this experience! Menashe with Zanza Tours Australia put together a perfect day in the Blue Mountains. The food, sights, animals and spiritual experience with the Aboriginal guide through the rainforest are lifetime memories. Leave the busy city and enjoy the beauty of the land. Cancel any other tours you may have and book with Zanza. THIS is the Sydney tour you want.
