Discover the wild beauty of northeastern Australia on this tour to Daintree and Cooya Beach from Cairns. What's more, you'll learn all about the local Kuku Yalanji culture!
On the morning of the tour, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Cairns at the indicated time. From there, we'll set off on the one-hour journey by bus to Daintree National Park, where we'll visit the Mossman Gorge forest.
Upon arrival, the Kuku Yalanji people will welcome you with a traditional Aboriginal ceremony. You'll then enter the Mossman Gorge Cultural Centre, where you'll have free time to explore the gallery and craft shop before heading into the forest with an Aboriginal guide. We'll walk along the park's trails and discover the native flora and fauna.
Afterwards, we'll go to a restaurant inside the cultural centre and enjoy a delicious lunch with local flavours. Let's try barramundi fish!
After lunch, we'll travel to Cooya Beach, our next stop of the day. Also called Kuyu Kuyu in the local aboriginal language, this is one of the best places to learn about the origins of Australia. We'll get to meet some members of the Kuku Yalanji community and learn about their culture and daily lives.
We'll also learn how to fish using their traditional techniques and go on a hunt for food, which they do daily - the perfect opportunity to test your skills! During this fun experience, we'll even have to go knee-deep into the water to fish in the marshes.
At the end of our 10.5-hour tour, we'll make our way back to Cairns where you'll be dropped back off at your hotel.
