In general, we don't follow a rigid itinerary. We like to respond to the conditions on the day, like the weather and avoiding crowds. Therefore, most of the destinations listed below will be visited on every tour, but occasionally we'll swap one with another to make sure you have the best experience possible. Blue Mountains National Park - After leaving the hustle & bustle of Sydney, we cross the Nepean River and start climbing our way up into the UNESCO World heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park, passing through quaint mountain villages and expansive valleys filled with Eucalyptus forests. Wentworth Falls -  Wander along the breathtaking Undercliff Track with expansive canyon views of the Kedumba Valley and see the largest waterfall in the Blue Mountains as it plunges nearly 200 metres into an ancient Gondwanan rainforest.  Sublime Point - One of the most spectacular of all the Blue Mountains lookouts. This is where we'll have our picnic lunch. Leura village & Cliff Drive - We will take the scenic route through the quiet tree-lined back streets of Leura Village with it's colourful gardens and historic houses. Eventually we end up on Cliff Drive which follows the rim of the canyon through pockets of rainforest that give way to glimpses of the vast Jamison Valley below. Echo Point and the Three Sisters - Echo Point is the most famous of all the Blue Mountains lookouts as it gives you the best, up close view of the iconic "Three Sisters" rock formation, as well as a 270 degree view of the vast Jamison Valley. Govetts Leap Lookout - another spectacular Blue Mountains lookout which overlooks the deep & dramatic Grose Valley into which Bridal Veil and Horseshoe Falls plummet abruptly off the escarpment. Guided bushwalks - We will spend a few hours exploring some of the most iconic Blue Mountains landscapes with a series of short guided wilderness walks away from the crowds. Our aim is to take you on a combination of trails that showcase the most spectacular Blue Mountains environments and offer the opportunity of spotting native Australian wildlife in it's natural habitat. The locations will be chosen by your guide and will take into account the weather & avoiding crowds. You will experience waterfalls, rainforest canyons, groves of towering Eucalyptus trees & awe inspiring views as you are serenaded by birdsong & breathe in the fresh mountain air. Your guide will reveal hidden natural wonders gleaned over a lifetime of exploring the Blue Mountains and talk about what makes this ancient wilderness so unique. Megalong Valley - Spot wild kangaroos and other Australian wildlife in their native habitat. We will descend off the plateau and drive through a rainforest canyon into the Megalong Valley where we will look back up at the towering sandstone escarpments & across rolling farmland fringed with stands of Eucalyptus forest. Narrow Neck Plateau Sunset - As the magic hour light bathes the vast expanse of golden sandstone escarpments, we'll explore the wind swept beauty of a plateaux top covered in wildflowers and intricately sculpted rock formations, culminating in a breathtaking sunset away from the tourist hordes.

All our guided walks take place on formed trails within the bounds of the Blue Mountains National Park, but the terrain can sometimes be uneven & rocky. A moderate level of fitness is required as most of our short walks involve varying amounts of climbing. Nothing extreme, but as a general rule you would need to be comfortable with gradually ascending the equivalent of 10 - 15 flights of steps. You can expect to do somewhere between 8000 & 15,000 steps throughout the day. Our wilderness adventures would suit people who do at least a small amount of moderate physical activity on a regular basis. You don't need to be a marathon runner, but you might struggle with the up-hill climbs if you're not used to regular walking in your day to day life.

Due to the nature of the activities, we cannot accept children under the age of 12. If you are traveling as a family with young children please consider booking a private tour so we can tailor an experience to your needs. All children under the age of 18 need to be accompanied by an adult. The tour would generally not be suitable for people over the age of 75, but if you are a fit & active older person that can manage up to 20,000 steps & 20 flights of stairs throughout the day, then absolutely you are welcome to join us. Due to Australian liquor licensing laws, children under the age of 18 are not allowed in a public bar where alcohol is being served. They are allowed to eat in the dining section though.

Blue Mountains weather is notoriously changeable! The old saying "four seasons in one day" definitely applies. You always need to be prepared for it to go from sweltering to chilly to wet, sometimes from one hour to the next! As a general guide though: Autumn (March - May): 10–25°C (50–77°F) Winter (June - August): 2–12°C (36–54°F) Spring (September - November): 8–25°C (46–77°F) Summer (December - February): 15–35°C (59–95°F) The Blue Mountains is generally cooler than Sydney due to its elevation, so layering up is a good idea all year round.

At FeelGood! Nature Tours, we actively promote the protection of flora and fauna. It is our duty to ensure there is minimal disturbance to this World Heritage Listed region and the species that call it home. Cultural sensitivity and respect for traditional owners should also be shown at all times. Part of our responsibility is educating guests on minimal impact practices and the importance of ensuring the safety of wildlife and the environmental sustainability of the destinations we visit. Learn more about EcoTourism: https://www.ecotourism.org.au/ Traditional Owners FeelGood! Nature Tours pays respects to the traditional owners of the country that the greater Sydney region sits within, with specific acknowledgement to the Eora, Dharawal, Darramurragal, Gundungurra and Dharug people. Please be conscious and respectful of the sensitivities of indigenous culture and the spiritual connection they have with the land at all times. Wildlife Encounters The natural behaviours of wildlife are to be respected and not interfered with. When viewing wildlife, people should take care to avoid rapid or sudden movements, which could frighten the animal, and should keep noise to a minimum and refrain from touching, petting or feeding all wildlife including birds. Contact with people can introduce diseases to wildlife and can cause them to become aggressive. Wildlife should not be handled or fed, unless by certified wildlife handlers. Feeding wildlife can alter their natural foraging behaviour and can lead to disease or illness through contact with people and the introduction of foods that are harmful to their digestive system. Feeding wildlife can also cause them to become aggressive toward people. Wildlife that appears to be in distress, injured or in danger should be reported immediately to the appropriate authority, such as your Guide/Tour Leader, a National Park Ranger or Visitor Centre Staff. Protecting our National Parks People should remain on designated walking tracks, behind safety barriers/fences and follow all directions given by the guide/tour leader. Venturing off these can alter fragile ecosystems and can harm wildlife shelters and native vegetation. There are other dangers to be aware of too, such as cliff edges, unstable rock formations, overhanging tree branches and slippery ground cover. Remaining on tracks ensures safe visitation for guests and the environment. No flora or fauna should be removed from their natural setting. This includes dead wood, fallen leaves, flowers and so forth, as they form part of the ecosystem of the region and their removal could cause a disturbance. Waste Management To discourage native wildlife from scavenging, no garbage bins are provided within the national parks that surround Sydney. Therefore, all waste should be carried out and disposed of at designated rubbish bins which can be found at various other places we visit throughout the day. No organic waste should be disposed of onto the ground. Although organic, items such as banana peels, apple cores, bread and other food scraps, are not natural/native to the region and can introduce pest species, diseases or harm to wildlife if found and eaten. We recommend all guests to bring their own re-fillable water bottle, There will be plenty of places where you can refill with fresh, clean & delicious Sydney water. Please ensure you stay hydrated throughout the tour to reduce the risk of sun exposure and dehydration. First Aid All our guides carry a current Level 2 First Aid certificate. Please report any accident or illness to your tour guide. We recommend anyone with an existing medical condition to carry their medication with them on tour and to notify their tour guide at the beginning of the tour. Smoking If you are a smoker, we ask you to refrain from smoking whilst in the company of other passengers and limit it to designated smoking areas. Smoking is not permitted on any of our vehicles, or within the confines of national park areas.

Unfortunately we do not have the facilities at this stage to accomodate physically impaired people due to the limitations of the van and the nature of the tour. We hope this is something that will change in the near future. Please consider booking a private tour for a more personalised experience to accomodate your needs.
