The tour is entirely in Korean, but as a non-Korean speaker, I still had a great time. Our guide; Kelvin speaks English and was very helpful, sending me a detailed itinerary via WhatsApp so I didn’t miss anything. Featherdale Wildlife Park was a highlight that is totally worth the trip, getting close to the animals was an unforgettable experience. The guide also helped us to take stunning photos at Lincoln's Rock, definitely will not miss out on any photo op even if you are traveling alone. The sunset spot the guide brought us to was stunning, despite the cloudy sky. We couldn’t do stargazing due to the weather, but the guide took us to see Sydney’s night skyline instead, which was a great alternative.

Thank you, Kelvin, for making our day so enjoyable! Despite the language barrier, the guide was very dedicated in explaining everything throughout the tour. He even thoughtfully sent us English explanations, so we still had a great time. Highly recommend the zoo, where you can interact with kangaroos up close! We're so glad we joined the stargazing experience; it was absolutely beautiful 😭. Thanks, Kelvin, for taking such great photos of each of us – so thoughtful! 💕

This was the most fulfilling tour ever with our handsome guide, Jayden!!!!! He gave us detailed explanations every time we arrived at a location, and it was even better because we could travel in a fun atmosphere 😆 On the way to Featherdale Wildlife Park, he even bought us flat whites with oat milk after we answered a quiz correctly, and it was so nutty and delicious!!!! Thanks to you, I enjoyed the delicious coffee 🙏 And I was so grateful that the guide even provided animal feed at his own expense 👍 I was so happy to be able to feed cute animals like wallabies and quokkas up close..🫶 He meticulously took photos and videos in the Blue Mountains, and he even told us the poses one by one. He's really good at taking photos!!!! He said he even changed his phone to take better pictures... That's how sincere he is about photography!!! It was a perfect day with an unforgettable sunset, the Blue Mountains, and stargazing. I highly recommend this tour 🔥🔥🔥

Guide Kim Min-wook, also known as "Baldi" Guide, handles things smoothly, smartly, and efficiently, taking into consideration the local situation and other tour groups so as not to disrupt the tour. There were no hiccups during the trip, and we only went to the best spots in an efficient manner. I'm very satisfied, and if I bring my parents next time, I'd completely entrust the guiding to him. He's the best. Thank you.

Though I’m not fluent in Korean, I enjoyed this tour a lot! It seemed like I was the only non-Korean participant, but the guide, SubCha-si kindly informed me the announcement in English each time. The itinerary was well organized, and I could enjoy each location with good amount of time. SubCha-si even took some pictures in each spot! If I can visit Sydney again, i'll love to join the tour one more time.

As a Japanese person, I joined a tour led by a Korean guide! I don't understand English or Korean, but the guide still tried his best to communicate with me, haha. Other tours are expensive, but this tour includes rides on two different Blue Mountains attractions and takes you to several photo spots. You also get to feed the wallabies at the wildlife park. It would be even better if you understand Korean, but even if you don't, it's still a fun tour just to go along! I was lucky enough to make friends with the other participants, which also made it enjoyable! For lunch, I had a kangaroo burger! It was delicious.
