The very Best of a Private tour. - On this trip we spent a little more to make a private tour with Dave of the Blue mountains. We told him what we have seen on other trips so he showed us so much else. the park is so vast, it's never ending views. Another wonderful experience in this amazing place with the best guide.

Private Tour Is a Super Value! - We were so well taken care of by Dave Taylor, our guide for the day. From the time he picked us up at our hotel until he dropped us at the ferry for the ride back to Sydney, he provided us with a wealth of information on Sydney and the Blue Mountain area. He was so well versed on the plant varieties and their benefits. History came alive with his stories. I'm so glad he encouraged us to take full advantage of Scenicworld. It was definitely the icing on the cake! We loved the interaction with animals at Featherdale Wildlife Park, including a picture with a koala! Wonderful, well paced day. Exceptional experience!

Private tour - the way to go. - We were a group of 4 friends in Sydney. We read so much of the Blue mountains we went on our own group. We planned with Dave what we wanted to see and we also wanted a small hike. We had a lunch on a remote rocky place and we did the train and gondola option. We had the most fulfilling day and he taught us so much. Safely returned us to our Bondi Air bnb. You can be sure of the best day with Dave he knows his stuff !

Always the Blue Mountains are worth a visit. - Me and my wife were in Sydney for a friends wedding. On a spare day we decided to go to the Blue mountains again. Last time was on a bus with other people, but now we could afford to pay a bit more for a private trip. Remembered our last trip and we chose Blue ribbon. Surprised they are still running so we chose their private tour. We had young Darren as our guide, such a polite chap and good driver. He had all the knowledge about everything and ran the day exactly at the pace we wanted. the vistas were amazing and , being Autumn the tree colours incredibly vibrant. A fantastic day .

Family private trip excellent. - Our family wanted to not be on a bus with others. Our Sheraton hotel recommended this one. They fetched us at 8am and in 90 minutes we were in Katoomba standing at the impressive 3 Sisters. The canyon is immense and blue. Our guide suggested Scenicworld rides, which cost $59 and is really a must do to see the views and forest from alternate places. Really good chats by our guide and we took the ferry back to the city. It is a top day.

Worthy of their rating. - My partner and I fully support the other reviews on the quality of this private tour. We based our tour selection purely on reviews for Private tours and Dave was a gem. The mountain scenery speaks for itself, but the total experience is enhanced by Dave's driving skills and he is a mine of information. He explains how he has done these tours for so many years and that sure shows through. Is there nothing he doesn't know ? Well done, mate. His son Darren was also driving a tour that day and we met the other guests too, we all sat down for lunch. You can see he has trained up Darren too, our lunch ended up like we were all family.

A great family day out. - Our family with our 2 teenage girls enjoyed immensely our day in the Blue Mountains with Dave. We had fun on the Katoomba rides, enjoyed his dialogue on the rainforest board walk and to end the day at Featherdales animal Park was the best.The mountain scenery is incredible. A tour to recommend to all.

It’s a “Grand Canyon”. - So close to Sydney is the Blue mountain, we were in Katoomba in only 90 minutes. Of course it made a difference doing the tour with just us and a nice guide. We came to look at the Three sisters, ride on the train and gondola and see a waterfall.. Also an easy forest walk . The day was complete with the lovely ferry back to the city. Avery nice day, thank you.
