We enjoyed two tours with AEA. Both pocked us up on time and followed the itinerary and visits as stated on their website. No hidden bad surprises or costs. Both driver guides took care of making the tours the best experience down under. Comentary in Englisch with available ipod in some languages available upon request at booking. Comfortable and clean vehicles. With a max of 14 participants, we stopped out of the big tour rides for quiet and more relaxed visits.

Definitely highly recommended. My friend and I took the Half-Day Panoramic Sydney Sights Afternoon tour on Monday, April 20th, in a small group. A very complete tour, it includes the main sites in Sydney, some of the suburbs, Bondi Beach and much more. Suitable for all ages and also adapted if you don't understand English. If I return to Australia in the future (hopefully, there's still so much more to see), I'll definitely take another tour with your company! Special mention to our guide, Matt, and his australian history master explanations. He also gave us recommendations about Sydney throughout the tour that were very useful! You can tell he's passionate about what he does.

We had a great time on this tour! We had a fantastic day visiting the Blue Mountains! Our guide, Helder, was great at providing details and history but not putting us to sleep. Visiting the farm was fun, particularly since we could see various animals in larger fenced areas. Lunch was better than expected and the variety of options fit everyone. While the fog kept us from seeing much at the overlooks, Helder adjusted our schedule a bit to allow more time to see the birds, landscape, waterfalls and mountain area when the fog broke up a bit. Our last stop to see and take photos with the cocktoos was amazing. His 'surprise' was also a nice one. A great way to end the trip before our ride back to Sydney.read moreread less

This is a luck of the draw thing, but we started late, there was miscommunication about what the drop off point was supposed to be, and our guide was far more focused on the price of houses and schools than he was on context or history. It definitely felt more like a shuttle service than a tour. I got off the van early. I regret not getting off sooner - I do think this is intended for older, possibly less mobile travelers - I was the youngest by thirty years!

An unforgettable day in the Blue Mountains. Our tour guide John knocked it out of the park. A wellspring of knowledge, funny, friendly… John made this experience so special. He curated a magical hike for my husband and I, packed us a proper lunch and gave us instructions to wait and eat until we got to the waterfall. Boy are we glad we did. A priceless memory for us. I don’t know if you’re able to request a tour guide but if you can pick John. We loved every minute of this tour. Thank you!

We had two tours during our honeymoon trip with AEA and they were both wonderful! Our first was a private tour to Hunter Valley with Matt. He provided us with so much Australian history on our way. He knew we wanted to see a kangaroo and went out of his way to try to get us to see one! He provided so many suggestions for us during our time in Sydney. Our second tour was a Blue Mountain tour and we were SO happy to see that Matt was our tour guide again! He is truly passionate about Australian history and it shows.

On Wednesday, March 20, 2024 we took the Blue Mountains day tour from Sydney. Our driver (Mario) arrived on time in a late model Mercedes van and we stopped at a couple meeting places to pickup additional guests. Our tour had 13 passengers in total and we had an amazing time. Safe drive out of the city, lots of shared information supported by print collateral (pass around and return). We stopped at a small rehabilitation zoo, multiple lookout points, botanic gardens and had a great lunch included in the price. Highly recommend this tour for those looking for a chance to see multiple stops in a one day period and get great exposure to the mountain range. A perfect setup for planning a 3-4 day intensive visit to an extremely beautiful area.

Our driver Hedler was wonderful and did everything he could to make our Blue Mountains day tour good BUT the weather was awful so we saw nothing. All the look out points were covered in clouds and even the botanic gardens were impossible to visit (the one indoor exhibit was closed). Other buses at least had umbrellas for their guests. The weather should have been checked by the tour company before we departed and we should have been given an option - other tours we have taken gave partial reimbursements when the weather did not permit the full experience. Given the option my husband and I would not have wanted to spend the day on a bus to see clouds and would have happily done ANYTHING else in Sydney on our last day. SUPER disappointed!

We did the Blue Mountain Deluxe Tour and enjoyed our views and informational sessions with Mario. He did a great job talking about Australia in general, the Blue Mountains, and answering questions. We saw so many different views of the Blue Mountains and pet koalas! Mario even delivered some delicious treats at the end. There is no hiking involved, which is fine knowing that coming in. I did feel rushed at many spots but understood it was to beat the crowds. We saw a small portion of the botanical gardens there as well. The provided lunch and views at the Hydro Majestic Hotel was also delicious and large portion sizes.

We prefer nature and active exploration, so for our first time on this beautiful continent it was the perfect option. We also wanted to avoid tourist traps. This was unequivocally the right choice. Eamonn had us in good hands the whole day and was very knowledgeable about each stop. The hike is very manageable but be aware it is not a kiddie ride. Lunch was very good.

Not recommended! They mixed us with another tour package! We payed $295 for the package that had picnic lunch, other people in the group had paid $299 for a package with restaurant lunch plus dessert!! So they didn’t let us sit with the rest of the group in the restaurant because our package was only with “picnic lunch” and we felt terrible about that. Also seemed extremely unfair that they had charged us $295 for the same package without restaurant lunch. The picnic lunch included 2 small chicken sandwiches soaked in mayonnaise!! Very bad taste, plus a slice of cake, a bottle of orange juice and an apple. No entry fees were paid (other than the Calmsley Hill Farm)and I did not understand what did they mean by “entry/admission fee” which was mentioned in the “included section”!! The last part was “Blue Mountains Botanic garden” and they gave us only 15 minutes!! While at least you will need 30-60min to see the garden. In a nutshell, you pay$295 only for transport(without admission fee) to Blue mountains, 3 sisters, Evans lookout,hotel pickup &drop off, Calmsley Hill Farm entry and picnic lunch. I highly recommend to go for another tour.read moreread less
Dane R, Manager at AEA Luxury Tours, responded to this review - 2023-04-11
Hi. I feel I need to address sum comments that you have made, that are untrue. Firstly, the price for the tour with restaurant meal is $314 per person, not $299. Our old price was $299, but as of April 1st we have had to increase the price of our product, as all of our expenses have increased, such as lunches, diesel, drivers wages, national park entry.
On some occasions we will need to have people on the same bus that have chosen the hiking option, or the restaurant option. The only difference in the two products is the chosen lunch option. You should have had your picnic lunch whilst hiking on a 1.5 hour trail with incredible views. Based on your comment, it would appear you did not do the hike? I am unable to know for sure which was your booking, as I am given no information from your comment which date you traveled on. But it could be that you decided on the day you didnt want to hike? in which case you would have had to eat your picnic lunches in the cafe separate to the others who paid more for a 2 course lunch. As for your comment on the lunches quality, I can only pass this on to the Cafe who made them and give them feedback in the expectation that we don't hear this comment again. The stop at the Gardens is minimum 30 minutes and helps break the journey home.
National Park entry fees are not paid by the driver on the day. It is paid through a quarterly reporting system through our National Parks Eco-Pass certificate. The price is $3 per person which we pay quarterly.

Great trip to the beautiful Blue Mountains with a visit to meet native Australian animals The trip was well organized by our guide, Giorgio. We were picked up on time at our hotel and he passed on lots of information on the area as we travelled to our first stop at the farm. The highlight there was Jasper, the koala, who was very active and friendly. He is part of a breeding programme to save the koalas. After some stops at lookouts and a picnic lunch, we hiked extensively in the beautiful blue mountains, mostly avoiding the rain showers but with interesting temperature changes. The views along the cliff trail were spectacular. The many consecutive trail steps can be a challenge for anyone with knee issues but the views may be worth the pain. Giorgio was an excellent guide. I felt bad as we had no smaller bills in Australian dollars to tip him and were unable to find change. Perhaps an option to tip when booking the trip could be added.read moreread less

Hello, i am sorry that the tour did not appear to meet your expectations. We do our best to showcase as much of Sydney City and the Eastern Suburbs as we can in the 3.5 hours of the tour. We have a selection of stops that allow for short walks, good views of the Harbour and Opera House and time to enjoy a walk at Bondi Beach. The tour is designed to be an overview of the city and surrounds and to provide history and information on our city. We cover quite a lot of ground and do showcase many locations. We hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday in Australia.

Amazing small group experience if you have limited time available to visit the Blue Mountains Ian's knowledge throughout the trip really added to the experience and was delivered with humour. His attention to service was second to none and he made sure that everyone's needs were catered to - a real asset to the company! This day was a combination of hiking and a sight seeing trip. We opted for the self guided hike from Evans Lookout which was great for views of a waterfall and across the canyons. Ian picked up a picnic lunch for us beforehand which was excellent - delicious and plentiful. This hiking option is well worth doing if you have the option to.The day was packed with plenty of photo stops along the way. Timings were kept to which meant no wasted time and you got a very good taster tour of the Blue Mountains in one day. We enjoyed seeing the animals up close at the city farm and the Botanic gardens are stunning.

Highs and Lows in the Mountains Eamonn our driver guide was excellent. He provided really interesting insights throughout the driving. The views through the day were amazing, and the mountain botanical gardens are incredibly beautiful. The company though had not organised things well. Nearly all the guests are older tourists and I heard this is typical. It's really windy and chilly in the morning and no guidance to bring a hoody or jersey etc. Some of us purchased jackets at the lunchtime tourist store (part of a plan?) I heard quite a few moans about that. The lunch picnic sandwich provided to walkers was essentially just a tube wrap full of mayonnaise that burst out of both ends simultaneously on any contact with the mouth. Both inedible and v messy, especially where no bathrooms available. But the biggest issue is the hike to Evans Point. I was OK with it as a regular runner, but found it unpleasant due to long, continuous steep ascents. Some of the older members of the group barely made it. I felt so bad for them. Please know this is a challenging, mostly uphill climb. Not a scenic walk. Great cardio workout but really not fun. Most walkers felt this had not been well articulated. So, a mixed bag I'm afraid.

Disappointing tour of the Blue Mountains For a full day tour of the Blue Mountains, we were disappointed. It was a smaller group - 8 people in a van so we expected to have a more intimate experience, but the driver had no microphone (and was unable to project his voice enough) so those in the back of the van couldn't hear the commentary. (The van we got that day was a substitute van.)We did make the most of the trip - got foggy photos of the blue mountains. The driver was helpful when we weren't driving. We got to see Kangaroos and Koala Bears. It was fun - just missed some of the background. No compensation given.
