Immerse yourself in Indigenous culture

Uncover the oldest culture in the world on an intimate journey in Tropical Far North Queensland. Together with a local company, go on a cultural discovery that will take you to Mossman, Mossman Gorge, Daintree River and coastal habitats. Enjoy this rich experience wholly with a small group.


The Kuku Yalarji people warmly welcome you to their land and would like to share with you an authentic Indigenous experience. Your guide, Juan, has been giving tours in this region for over 19 years and, therefore, has an abundance of knowledge to share with you.

You will learn about traditional Indigenous practices. Have a go at throwing a boomerang and hope that it will come back! Try spear throwing and see if you can catch a mud crab. Learn about different foods and medicines utilised by nature. Sample some bush tucker, collect shellfish and take a refreshing dip in the crystal clear waters of the Mossman Gorge.
