They take good care of your family. - As we were a family with young children we chose a private trip to the mountains. We wanted just us and the guide as we had a 5 and 8 year old with us. Extra nice service being picked up at 9am at our b and B and returned at 5pm. We got to see the 3 Sisters, do all the rides at the Scenery World, nice lunch at the Katoomba cafe, Dave suggested Yellow Deli which was so goo. The final stop off was to see koala bears, dingos, crocs etc. at an animal sanctuary. It was worth coming all the way from the USA just to make this day. Full marks to Blue Ribbon.

Incredible to see. - Katoomba is at the top of the mountains. Dave took us up there with us smooth driving and he knows all about Sydney and gave an excellent commentary all the way. The cliffs and gorges have beautiful colours and it’s all so green. On the return we stopped at a Wildlife sanctuary to pat Koala bears and Kangeroos ,it was a special time. We had such a nice day , having Dave to ourselves as the escort made the difference.

Fresh eucalyptus Aidan's incredible scenery made for a great day. - Getting out of a big city was our aim to have a day in fresh air and Dave was the man for our private tour into the mountains. After a 9am start which we asked for a late time we arrived in Katoomba around 10.30. We saw many lookouts and added the option to do the Scenic world which we really enjoyed having 90 minutes there to take all the rides and leisurely do the forest boardwalk. Dave was with us to take care and explain trees and animals. We came back to Sydney on the ferry for 45minutes ending our best day in Oz.

Packed with lots of information and the spectacular Blue Mountain. - Dave is a gem, he cares for you the whole day whilst navigating the roads comfortably, is a mine of knowledge from stuff about the country’s history to details about animals, flowers and fauna. When it was very busy at Scenicworld he knew how best to beat the queues. Loved his choice of luncheon café in Katoomba. From breathtaking lookouts, to the Wildlife sanctuary to the relaxing ferry trip back to the city, you could not have a better day.

A great all day trip away from Sydney to the mountains beauty. - Our group of friends opted for our own van with an experienced guide to take us out to the mountains. It was an easy 90 minutes until we reached Katoomba. It was a fresh 15 degrees but so clear we could see for 100 miles. So green with all the gum trees and our very good guide explained all the other trees. He took us around to many vistas and Scenicworld which cost $59 each was worth the extra , we had over an hour there doing two train trips. In the forest valley was a boardwalk which our guide escorted us along, they even had life size dinosaurs roaring. It’s a most worthy tour from Sydney but we think its worth the extra to take the private tour choice.

Excellent Blue mountains private tour with a huge variety of sites. - My husband and I completed our first trip to Sydney.We found Dave whilst chatting to out Hilton hotel manager as we only wanted a private tour and not with others. He had got good feedback on this tour and he reserved a place for only us with a 9am pick up. Dave friendly and is well versed in all things about Australia and the mountains, he is so genuine in explaining his 35 years of conducting these tours. The mountains were just as you see on the advertising and you get to see lots of koalas etc. at Featherdales park. The drive is most comfortable at a very easy pace. This was one of our best tours ever.

Entire day was wonderful with all the places visited were so worth it. - The explanations throughout the day by Dave were so informative, he took us to his secret places away from the crowds because we did a private tour and he really kept it just for us. As if we owned the Blue mountains. This was our once in 3 year vacation so we wanted it made special and Dave sure ticked all the boxes. Absolutely perfect.

Nature at it’s best - worth paying the little extra for the private tour. - This was our first ever private tour as it costs a bit more. But it was so worth it, to have the freedom of the time to ourselves, AND to have Dave as our chauffeur for the day at the Blue mountain. On the way we visited koalas and kagaroos, then it was a lovely scenic drive up the mountain and the road wasn’t even windy. Dave took us to various viewpoints and an easy 30 minute bush stroll. It was a most enjoyable day and Dave showed his true worth giv8ng us heaps of things to learn and understand. The mountains are a piece of artistry by nature.
