Afternoon Sightseeing, The Grose Valley, Blackheath or Katoomba,

After lunch there’s time for more sightseeing. If we’re in Blackheath a visit to one or more of the lookouts over the Grose Valley are in order: Pulpit Rock, Anvil Rock, or Govetts Leap. In Katoomba we can follow the Cliff Drive, pulling in for views over the Jamison Valley. If you want to visit Scenic World, this is time. Our final stop is always Echo Point in Katoomba and the postcard view of Three Sisters in the afternoon light.

If you’d like something different for your return to the city – we can drive through Sydney Olympic Park to the wharf from where you can catch a ferry to the City.

I booked our Blue Mountain private excursion months in advance. (We were two couples.) I felt secure in the knowledge that I had made the right decision in selecting Sydney Adventure Tours as our provider. Mark, our guide, was exceptional. He was extremely knowledgeable about flora, fauna, and history. It was particularly important to hear about the history and abuse of the indigenous peoples in the region. Mark was conscious of our needs and limitations, but put together a terrific itinerary for us, seeking our approval and input at each step. I was impressed that Mark took the time to call me to say he'd be a couple of minutes late picking us up, when in fact he showed up exactly on time. Finally, the company provided a new Mercedes van which was very comfortable. I highly recommend Sydney Adventure Tours, and Mark in particular. - 07/01/25

My husband and I had booked a tour with Mark. He was an amazing guide! He provided so much valuable information about the history of each places we had gone through. He was such a passionate Aussie who spent the entirety of the tour going beyond what you would google or read about. He is such an asset to this company and represents well. Our tour was a perfect day of a mix of guided activities and a few solo/couple time to explore. We ended our tour with a unforgettable experience. Thank you Mark for this experience that my husband and I will treasure forever. - 07/01/25
