My husband and I are active seniors who have had a tour of the Blue Mountains on our "bucket list" for several years. David worked with us to personalize our tour to our interests and abilities. He assured that we got the best of views of the mountains and waterfalls and vistas, even it we preferred to limit our hiking any great distance on unpaved paths.
On our first stop at Featherdale Wildlife Park, he gave us a terrific overview and description of many of the animals, including the intriguing Pademelons. He also gave us time to explore on our own. He made sure I got the best-possible photos of birds and animals of interest.
At Glenbrook, we got a terrific view of Wentworth Falls. We decided not to hike down to, and swim under, under the falls. He assured we still experienced impressiveness of the falls.
All along the way, David went above and beyond to get us the best of views and experiences. We viewed the Three Sisters from two different viewpoints.
I suggest taking the time for a pub lunch in Katoomba. It is a good opportunity to feel like a "local" and to relax mid-trip. We also enjoyed the stop in the mountain village of Leura where we could briefly browse in shops.
Our tour with David could not have been more delightful, educational, and thrilling.
