This tour was full of information about the indigenous people who lived in the harbor area. Nathan was a wonderful guide and pointed out uses of plants and trees and shared the history and culture. We enjoyed visiting with him and learning from him.

Brilliant tour of Sydney foreshore. I grew up in Sydney and it was so enriching to be guided by Amanda around these areas and learn so much about her traditions. I have a new perspective of the foreshore, one that includes Amanda's stories of her ancestors and how they lived their lives in harmonious relationship with the land, as well as how traditions continue in her life today.

Teacher's response

We're so glad to hear that you found her guidance and stories enriching, offering a new perspective of the land and its traditions. It's fascinating how Amanda's ancestors lived in harmony with the land, and it's heartwarming to see those traditions carried on in her life today.

Apologies as I thought I'd had responded to this evaluation/feedback my team and I had a wonderful experience on the 15th June 2023; so much so that we tried booking again for our NSW & ACT Cultural Mentors Network on the 30th November 2023, however, there's no availability, so we need to source another cultural tour in Sydney. If there's any chance of something becoming available on the 30.11.23 for the AM session, please let me know at: [email protected] or by calling me on: 0487 779 193

Aunty Margaret was very knowledgeable
I just wish we could have seen some more of the cultural aspects even though I know most of them have been lost

Really enjoyed my Aboriginal Dream tour around Sydney Harbour. Amanda was our guide and she was very informative about their culture. Happy to answer people’s questions. You came away quite a bit wiser on how they see their land. Pat

It was a great pleasure to have Aunty Margret open our eyes to the connection between the custodian and the our land. The interaction between Aunty and the team was great ensuring that all were involved.
If you don't walk away without learning something than you haven't listen or opened your eyes.

Sarah Bell • Aug 2022

What an amazing tour! We had Faith as our guide, she was so generous with her time and knowledge. Her warmth and kindness made us feel so welcomed on the walk. Our group all live in Sydney but despite this we learnt so much about the rich history of our First Nations peoples and were grateful to have so many stories shared with us. An amazing tour and would recommend to everyone!

It was a great learning experience. The teacher used grass, plants and trees to show how her people found water, and made tools from nature. I learned about girls and boys becoming adults and how this was achieved in their culture.
I learned about boomerangs and what they were used for. I learned about how children were raised to be one with nature and understand how to limit use of animals to help with conservation and sustainability. I learned about who elders are and what they represent.
