I stayed for a month and it was a fantastic experience. The work was very reasonable and within just a few days I felt like I'd been working there for years. Shout out to the team—Liarna, John, Nathan, Holly, Dan—who were kind, supportive, and fun to work with. While I was there, each volunteer had our own room, which was a plus, and the exchange was honored as outlined: 20hr/week plus meals and any extra work was paid at $30/hr. If the opportunity ever came up to return, I would do so in a heartbeat. It truly felt like a home away from home and I'm incredibly grateful for the hospitality. <3

It was my first Worldpackers experience, and it couldn't have been better! The Blue Mountains is such a stunning place, and the guest house team is super kind, helpful, and friendly. The accommodation is great and really close to the train station. I had an amazing time there!

I came here with my boyfriend and we really enjoyed our stay, the room and kitchen were very nice and had a lot of space for cooking and hanging out. We live on the room above the guest house which made very easy to just go downstairs and walk or finish the day and just relax. The town is beautiful and there are a lot of hikes to do, with amazing views.

Our stay in the guest house was really nice. The kitchen team was the best part of our shifts. Leura and Katoomba are an amazing place to spend some weeks there, you have a lot of walks to do. Also, you have a private room and a good kitchen. 🙌🏼

I had a great experience at the guest house! Everyone was so welcoming and easy to get along with. I was able to extend my time because I was having so much fun! John is super kind and generous, and went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable. The work was fair, food was amazing, and there was plenty of time off to enjoy the beautiful area. Accommodation was comfortable and it was great being able to hang out with other volunteers. I would definitely recommend staying at the guest house to anyone with hospitality experience.
