Boars Head Lookout gets its name from its unique and quite distinctive appearance; it resembles a boar of course! The rock formation appears to look like a boar or a pig's head. It silently and spectacularly stands on top of the cliff overlooking views both of Jamison Valley and Megalong Valley.
This fantastic lookout is not on the bus loop and has been recently redesigned, so it feels quite luxurious! It’s easily accessible and it offers beautiful views over the Megalong Valley, on the other side of the Narrow Neck Plateau.

Our guide Luke James made this trip so special. He was knowledgeable and very professional but more than that, he truly loved the sights, the nature, and the animals. He would make it easy for us. He would put us in position for the best experience. He took our pictures and texted them back to us. We couldn’t ask for more. A great guide.

We booked the Ausguides Blue Mountain Tour for our family. It was our first visit to the mountain. We were super grateful that we had Joseph as our guide/drive. He was very patient and very knowledgeable through out the whole tour. He drove us from location to location and kindly provided all the historical background of the site we visited. When we visited Featherdale Sydney Wild Park, Joseph kindly walked us through the park and visit each Aussie animals. I was surprised by his knowledge of the animals and he explains most of them in details. Next he took us to the Scenics World in blue mountain. He made sure we knew all the rides and were familiar with the facility before he left us. And later he took us to different outlook point in blue mountain and saw some amazing views. Overall my family had really wonderful time. We definitely would book again with Ausguides.
Hi Frank, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased to hear your family enjoyed the Blue Mountains tour with Joseph, he’ll be thrilled to know his knowledge and care made your day special. We’d be delighted to welcome you again on your next visit.
Our tour to the Featherdale Wildlife Reserve and the Blue Mountains was amazing. Luke James was a very knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide. The Refuge was impressive and very hands on. We were able to feed kangaroos and see Koalas up close. The day started very foggy but after he took us for a lunch break in Katoomba, the fog had lifted and we were able to enjoy the views from Scenic World. He recommended the Yellow Deli for lunch. What a treat to be able to have an amazing lunch in such a quaint local restaurant! Very unique place. I strongly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Sydney. It is definitely worth it to spend a day in the Blue Mountains and visit the Featherdale Wildlife Refuge.
Hi there, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed Featherdale, Scenic World, and the Blue Mountains with Luke—he’ll be pleased to know his recommendations made a difference. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again soon.
A day spent well with Muz. Great experience at the Zoo with Koala, Kangaroos and other native animals there. They are so cute. Scenic world ride is must. We booked tickets and were not sure if they were already included in the price. Muz had already our tickets booked as they were already included. Great experience with ausguides.
Hi there! Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re glad Muz made your day special and helped with your tickets, sounds like you had a fantastic experience with the animals and the Scenic World ride. Hope to welcome you back with Ausguides soon.
Our experience using Ausguides was amazing! They assisted with tailoring the perfect itinerary for our family of Mom, who wanted to photograph all the most incredible views of the mountains, 14 year old daughter who wanted to interact with a koala and Dad who was just along for the fun (and private car ride)! The private tour is definitely worth the extra special experience.
