Queensland Aboriginal Tours and Experiences, Australia

Queensland has some wonderful tours and experiences conducted by indigenous guides, whose people have lived here for many thousands of years that take you away from the usual tourist spots to places walked by very few. There are also cultural centres, museums to visit and you can find some wonderful authentic art and creations in the art galleries available for purchase to take back home.

The tours and experiences available encourage understanding of indigenous culture, as well as about the land, the animals and plants. Plants, of course, were not only a food source but also for medicines, health and well being.
