About

Get out of the city and see some of the best parts of Australia as you venture off the beaten track and experience the heart of the World Heritage Blue Mountains. See fantastic panorama escarpments, unique rock formations, deep canyons with ancient rainforest and occasionally kangaroos in the Megalong Valley. You will learn about the flora, fauna, geology and extensive history of this beautiful, World Heritage Listed national park.

Within five minutes of landing in The Blue Mountains your luxury 4WD tour guide will be showing you the world-famous Three Sisters rock formation, the Katoomba Waterfall and the magnificent Jamison and Kedumba Valleys. Follow the sheer cliffs westward to the quaint mountain township of Blackheath and the western edge of the Blue Mountains where you will enjoy a gourmet picnic lunch with views into the Megalong and Kanimbla Valleys. Occasional sightings of kangaroos in the valleys await before you will delight at the grandeur of the Grose Valley, the Bridal Veil Waterfall and Australia's very own Grand Canyon.
