Reviews
"Being a frequent visitor to the Blue Mountains, I thought I knew Leura well. Not so! Sue helps us to see Leura with different eyes, its history, its hard times, photos and stories of magnificent residences of bygone days, the 1980s vision to continue to bring holiday makers to escape the city and breathe in the (very) fresh mountain air. Look forward to doing her Katoomba tour next time. Thanks, Sue."
"We had a fantastic walk with Sue yesterday around Leura. Sue is very knowledgeable and entertained us with loads of fascinating and quirky facts about the history of this beautiful town. An easy walking pace with lots of stops. It was over all too quickly… highly recommended!!"
"I was lucky enough to spend last Saturday morning with Sue from Mountain Tales. I learnt such a lot about the fascinating history of Katoomba. Sue is well versed, organised, very pleasant and obviously loves people. If you want to know the history of the mountain villages and are going to the Blue Mountains for a holiday, book in with Sue you won’t regret it."
"What a fantastic experience! Having recently moved to the Blue Mountains, I regularly walk the streets of Leura but had never considered the history, challenges or why this country town is different from others. The tour was relaxed, engaging, and packed with information. Sue is an amazing historian, humorous and entertaining. I would highly recommend the opportunity to have a glimpse into the past."
"We had an amazing time on the weekend exploring the Blue Mountains village of Leura with Sue at Mountains Tales. Her engaging walking tour is a great all round introduction to the Federation town and we learned a huge amount. Bring a hat and some water. A must-do."
