Walkabout Cultural Adventures

Aboriginal Cultural Tours on Kuku Yalanji Country

Walk on country with a local Aboriginal guide and learn how the Kuku Yalanji people have lived with the rainforest, rivers and sea for thousands of years.

Walkabout Cultural Adventures is a locally owned and operated, First Nations owned tour business based in Mossman. Owner and guide Juan Walker has been guiding in the Port Douglas and Daintree region for over 20 years. Tours are small, hands-on and personal. You’ll learn about native plants, bush foods and medicines, sample seasonal bush tucker, and hear the history, culture and traditions of the Kuku Yalanji people.
