What a great way to discover the stories behind everyday places, historic buildings and immerse yourself in the mystery and beauty of this place.Posted on Natalie EvansTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Sue is a great storyteller. Our walk in Mount Victoria last month was lots of fun and very informative. A great way to spend a few hours, learning more about the wonderful Blue Mountains🙂Posted on Liz ParnellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Had a lovely time walking around Leura and learning about the history of the place.Posted on Trudi-Blossom CooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. There's nothing nicer than a sunny Leura morning, and a tour with Sue from Mountains Tales. Sue knows so much about Blue Mountains History that you will learn something new whether you are up visiting for the weekend, or a local. Sue is very welcoming and friendly and gives you plenty of opportunities to say "I know the answer to that!" 😂😆which is always nice! Thank you Sue for a lovely tour. Now I just need to take the Katoomba tour for the trifecta.Posted on Lyn DennisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We booked Sue’s walking tours of Leura and Katoomba on the same day (morning and afternoon). My friend from California is interested in nature and history, so Sue’s walks were a perfect choice. We were not disappointed. Sue has a deep knowledge and enthusiasm for the Blue Mountains and, as a resident of the mountains for 50 years, I learned so much from Sue’s tour. I have family history in the Blue Mountains; My great-uncle, George James, was Katoomba’s Mayor on several occasions in the early 1900’s and my grandfather, was Assistant Stationmaster of Katoomba Station. Sue was able to show me the home that George James built, named Froma, of which I was unaware and I was able to show her where my Grandparents and Mum lived, opposite The Carrington. What a day we had. Thank you so much Sue for THE most interesting, educational and informative day. What a vast knowledge and research, photos, explanations and genuine enthusiasm you have and are willing to share. Our day exceeded all expectations and my Californian friend and I left with more questions to research. Mount Irvine, Mount Wilson and Yosemite. These names must share a common link between the Blue Mountains and California. We will find out by our own research and discovery. Thank you Sue for a memorable day.Posted on Mickey HeitTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Thanks Sue for a very informative tour of Mount Victoria this morning. All the family enjoyed the experience and we learnt a lot of very interesting history. You were amazing. Look forward to doing another one with you.Posted on Doug PattisonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We took Sue’s walking tour of Leura and would thoroughly recommend it. We only wish we had done it earlier in our stay. She is a knowledgeable and affable guide.Posted on Marie MooneyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Thanks Sue for another wonderfully informative walking tour of a beautiful mountains village, this time, Katoomba. Love your incredible knowledge, woven into story telling and humour. We look forward to learning about the next village with you.Posted on Clara PatchingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Sue was a fantastic, informative and entertaining tour guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour of Leura and are keen to do some of Sue's other village tours. She is clearly a passionate historian and her knowledge of local history is amazing. Highly recommend!Posted on Tina MulhollandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. What a great afternoon we had on the Mountains Tales Katoomba Story Tour! Sue is an brilliant presenter, passionate about the history she generously unfurls along the way and a captivating storyteller. I love Katoomba and thought I knew it's story but now I understand so much more - some intriguing details and why, for example, we have so many Art Deco buildings still standing. It's had me thinking about it ever since. I highly recommend the tour for locals and visitors, it was thoroughly entertaining and illuminating. Thanks, Sue! See you soon on the Leura Tour!
