Tour Itinerary
Travel along one of Australia's most scenic coastal drives as we travel north of Port Douglas, to Cooya Beach where Kubirri Warra brothers, Brandan and Linc of Kuku Yalanji Cultural Habitat Tours will teach you how to throw a spear. Walk with the brothers on their traditional lands where you can hunt whilst stalking and observing wildlife and country. Learn how to track coastal resources through the mangroves. Search and hunt for fish, mud crabs and mussels. See and try bush tucker and bush medicines. Enjoy morning tea of fresh homemade damper, tea/coffee and the catch of the day on the balcony of their family home, overlooking the ocean. The Walker boys demonstrate different Aboriginal artifacts and their uses. Maybe learn how to play a didgeridoo.
We continue north to the Daintree Village, for a 1 hour river cruise on the mighty Daintree River. Have a picnic lunch on the shores of the river before we continue to the spectacular Niau Falls and Tranquility on the Daintree - a secluded 450acre private property. The Niau falls are a pristine natural wonder waiting for you to discover. You will see strange, primitive plants and learn about the original French settler family. Hear of their incredible story of survival. Your guided rainforest walk will unlock the secrets of this fascinating eco-system. Time for a swim in this magical rainforest environment, (don't forget your swimmers). Your amazing day of discovery comes to a close as you are returned to your accommodation.
