Guided Tours
If you’re interested in learning about the indigenous culture and history of the Port Douglas & Daintree area, there are several tour options available for you.
One of the most popular options is the Walkabout Cultural Adventures tour, which is led by an indigenous guide from the Kuku Yalanji tribe. On this tour, you will journey through the Mossman Gorge and Daintree Rainforest, and gain insight into traditional hunting and gathering techniques, hear Dreamtime stories, and even sample some bush tucker.
If you’re looking for a more in-depth exploration of Mossman Gorge, the Mossman Gorge Centre’s Ngadiku Dreamtime Walk is a great option. Led by a local Indigenous guide, this tour takes you on a spiritual journey through the gorge and provides ample opportunities to learn about traditional culture and customs.
Daintree Discovery Tours offers a comprehensive tour of the Daintree Rainforest, including a visit to the Mossman Gorge with a traditional smoking ceremony by an indigenous local guide.
No matter which tour you choose, you’ll gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for the rich history and culture of the local indigenous people.
