Join us on an unforgettable journey to the majestic Blue Mountains and Mudgee, where nature's wonders await. Our specially curated 5-day tour is designed to offer a perfect blend of relaxation, exploration, History and breath taking scenery. Our journey takes us over the Blue Mountains and home through Merriwa, Denman and the Hunter Valley.  

Step back in time as we ride the historic Zig Zag Railway, a remarkable engineering feat that winds its way through the rugged terrain of the Blue Mountains. Soak in the panoramic views of lush valleys and dramatic cliffs on our unforgettable journey filled with nostalgia and awe-inspiring scenery.

The Portland Cement Works Silos, also known as the Portland Foundations Silo, are an iconic industrial heritage site, showcasing the remnants of the former cement works that operated from 1890 to 1991. Today, they stand as a reminder of the region's industrial past and have become a popular spot for photographers and history enthusiasts.

Mudgee, aboriginal for ‘nest in the hills’, is a charming town nestled in the Central West region of New South Wales. Boasting a rich history dating back to the 19th century, the town is  characterized by its well-preserved heritage buildings, many of which now house boutique shops, cafes, and galleries.

A flourishing wine industry has seen the town expand in recent years, however Mudgee has retained its character with settlement here dating back to the 1820s and its ‘golden’ past remains very evident. Surrounded by rich grazing country and a diversity of agriculture and horticulture, all framed by stunning National Parks, the district has seen enormous interest in recent years.  It has been awarded Australia’s Top Tourism Town for the last 2 years!

Our accommodation for this tour is 2 nights at the 4 star Black Gold Motel, Wallerawang (02) 6355 7305, nestled inside the historic 1881 Wallerawang School and 2 nights at the Parklands Resort Mudgee (Ph 6372 4500), set on 15 hectares of gardens and pasture land, where we will enjoy its friendly country hospitality and excellent facilities.
