“Amazing Adventure - Fantastic Guide”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 29, 2012

Our adventure through Fortress Creek canyon was even more stunning than we thought possible. The trip was a great balance of exhilaration, exertion, and adventure. Our guide Tim was so knowledgeable on the native flora and fauna of the Blue Mountains. He was just as enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge of the area with us as he was about the... More

“Dillon is a great guide”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 5, 2012

We called for a guide through the Blue Mountains and Dillon showed up for us. He was very honest and said he was still training but we thought he was great. Please ask for him as his ready smile, sense of humour and love of the region will really shine through. More

“The best way to see the Blue Mountains”

person found this review helpful

My travel buddy and I are always on the lookout for more adventurous activities when we are on holiday so abseiling in the blue mountains was ideal. We have both abseiled before (although it was many years ago at a high school camp) but these expeditions are great for people with no experience as the guides are good at what... More

Thanks! :) John is a great guide, and The Boars Head is a great adventure. You should try the climb out ("Old Shandy") next time! If you have any pictures from the day we'd love to see them! Cheers More

“Get into the belly of the blue mountains!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 9, 2012

These guys provided top notch service from beginning to end, giving great info and being accommodating with times due to my train from Sydney. The trip was exceptional and if you want to truly see the BM you need to get "in them" via the canyons! Matty my guide was slick and adapted to my ability keeping the trip exciting.... More

“Exhilarating trek through breathtaking scenery”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 29, 2011

WOW. A word which finds itself uttered time and time again by all members of the group as it progresses through Yileen Canyon. And the biggest 'wow' factor doesn't even arrive until the canyon is done and all that awaits you is a stunning abseil down a waterfall. The day started early, leaving Sydney at 6.00 a.m. for the 90-minute... More

“Great Adventure Options, excellent instructor”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 7, 2011

My friend Pauline and I were able to do a 1/2 day canyoning tour with Blue Mountains on our trip to Australia. We are both adventure girls and definitely like to enjoy our time when traveling. We lucked out in that we were the only ones on the tour with Paddy, our guide. This was our first experience canyoning. Customer... More

“It is much harder then it looks!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2010

ahhh, if the only the weather was better....it was about 63 degrees when we went and the company provided us with wetsuits and thermal underwear. We hiked down a fire road for awhile before turning onto a trail. Lots of bushes and brambles. TIP: Wear pants and long sleeves We hiked down and down and down the trail. Our guide... More
