Immersing Yourself in Aboriginal Culture

Immersing yourself in Australia's culture can be one of the most enriching ways to experience the country. Meet Indigenous guides and gain an insight into traditional art and customssomething which you can do on various tours or activities.

Mossman Gorge north of Cairns offers an exceptional rainforest experience when combined with a guided Dreamtime Walk led by local Aboriginal guides. Your guide will offer insight into Aboriginal worldview and explain how nature interacts with spiritual realms; demonstrate traditional uses for bush plants as well as provide lessons in painting with ochre and producing bush soap.

Discover Aboriginal culture at many other points as well. Take a guided tour through Sydney's Barangaroo precinct led by an Aboriginal educator to uncover its meaning, or enjoy Indigenous cuisine and storytelling at Flames of the Forest in Port Douglas where dining under rainforest canopy unfolds into stories of ancient Aboriginal legends.
