Immerse yourself in the rich landscapes and cultural heritage of the Daintree on this full-day Ngana Julaymba Dungay experience. Traversing the southern side of the Daintree River and the Mossman region, this journey blends rainforest discovery with coastal exploration, taking you through lush Mossman Gorge, serene beaches, and vibrant mangrove ecosystems.
Guided by knowledgeable local interpreters, you’ll gain a profound insight into the traditions and knowledge of the Kuku Yalanji people. Learn how they have sustainably used the land for generations, discover native foods and medicinal plants, and enjoy seasonal bush tucker tastings. Participate in traditional practices such as spear and boomerang throwing, and if luck is on your side, try your hand at catching a mud crab.
This experience is designed to be both engaging and adaptable: the exact activities vary with the tides and seasonal conditions, ensuring every journey is unique. Comfortable transport is provided, with pick-ups from Port Douglas, Mossman, and Daintree Village included, so you can focus entirely on the adventure and cultural immersion.
For your comfort and enjoyment, bring sun protection, insect repellent, a camera, and comfortable walking shoes. Swimwear and a towel are recommended for any refreshing dips along the way, and a water bottle will keep you hydrated throughout your day of discovery.
