Overview

Coast Warriors is Sydney’s chilled out small group tour operator own and run by Aussie locals. We target the fitter 17 to 55ish years of age travellers though older is fine if you can bushwalk and like what you see advertised :)

This tour offers one of Sydney's highest reviewed experiences for those seeking a relaxed Blue Mountains option. Our tours are run by fun local Aussies with the aim of being less of a tour and more of a feeling of a small group of mates on a day trip.

We have now been running this adventure for some time so you can put trust that we will take you to only the best and less touristy places within the Blue Mountains. Waterfalls, amazing lookouts, Glenbrook cafe stop (locals cafe), the Three Sisters at Katoomba, occasionally a kangaroo and often birds. This is a full day in the Blue Mountains generally away from all the tourists and other mainstream tour bus locations. Aussie snacks like Tim Tams & Vegemite are on offer too.

This tour is organised and run by locals who have lived in the Blue Mountains all their life taking you to only the best places that can be fit in in a full day tour. This full day Blue Mountains tour is exactly that, we do not attend non relevant zoos, boats etc. Scenic World has also been removed from our itinerary as it wasn't well received by our customer base.  

This adventure commences early from Sydney with a meet and greet at the pickup point. You then have a bit over an hour to acquaint yourself with the group on the bus ride heading to the outskirts of Sydney.

Once you hit the start of the Blue Mountains there is a quick stop at a local shopping village where you can have a quick toilet/food/drinks stop before heading all the way up to the amazing Three Sisters rock formations. After taking photos of the Three sisters and jaw dropping Jamison Valley we then take you on a bushwalk right up to the three sisters and even onto one of the rock formations.

We then progress further into the mountains to Wentworth Falls where your guide will take the group for a 90 min hike through the bush where you will see local fauna, bird life and see several waterfalls on your hike to the base of the immense Wentworth falls and even have a quick refreshing dip.

All that sightseeing makes people hungry so the group will relocate to a nearby area where we cook an authentic Aussie BBQ with veggies and kangaroo on the side (vegetarian/vegan options).

After lunch we continue the day of fun and head to a local and secluded waterhole where people can go swimming or lay around on the sand in the sun deep within the bush of the Blue Mountains. Then, you head off into the nearby National Park down a long dirt road to say hello to skippy the Kangaroo. This tour has had hundreds of 5 star reviews. We are a small and passionate option!

By now the day is getting on and we head back into Sydney with an approximate arrival time of 6:00pm. We often conclude our day together at the Central Sydney bar.

Great day. Host was very good. The grade 3, 450 steps should have been an option. We could have been dropped at the 3 sisters for 2.5 hrs instead of waiting on the peaceful yet boring for the others to do the steps. Then only spent less then an hour at the 3 sisters when we could have done the cable car experience and had a nice lunch at the hotel. But all in all it was a stress free lovely day

This is a must do trip if you are in Sydney for more than a few days, it is well worth the whole day out. The bus stops regularly for toilet and refreshment breaks and the provided picnic lunch was a great gourmet sub style roll with great fillings catering to every dietary requirement including a great celiac wrap which my wife said amazing. Each of the stops was breathtaking and the walk down to Wentworth falls was worth the effort (but if you have any mobility issues you may want to skip that one bit). Overall a great trip and Trent was an enthusiastic, knowledgeable and entertaining guide.

Excellent trip. Tom was a very good guide and we were never rushed. Unfortunately due to the recent rain the excursion was modified but we thoroughly enjoyed it. The trip was quite exhausting as there was a lot of walking and steps involved. We are aged 69/70 and we managed most of it, but towards the end we missed a climb down. Magnificent views. Picnic was very good too. 10/10

Absolutely phenomenal. All of the views were Absolutely stupendous and while the walk to the waterfall was an absolute mission the view from the bottom was well worth it. The tour guide (Trent) was Absolutely fantastic and made our first experience with a tour amemorable one. And the lunch was absolutely not what you'd expect for the cost of the tour(as cheap as it is compared to the rest) was actually delicious! And they had options for all kinds of dietary restrictions. 100% worth everything 10/10 would do again.

This is for people who want to hike a little in the Blue Mountains, but hiking boots are not necessary. It was well organized, with a little time for exploring in most of the places we stopped. Our excellent driver and guide Tom kept us all moving and made sure even the dawdlers didn't allow us down too much.
