HANDS ON COUNTRY ECO TOUR

Discover an unforgettable Indigenous cultural experience right at the door-step of Cairns.

The Mandingalbay Yidinji (MY) people have lived in harmony with their environment for tens of thousands of years.
This tour allows you to immerse yourself in the world of the MY people, visiting places of significance and sourcing native food in the rainforest.

You will be welcomed with a traditional smoking and cleansing ceremony.

MY people will personally guide you, sharing ancient knowledge and insights into Indigenous customs. Guests gain an understanding of the connection
between Country and Aboriginal culture.
