You will experience traditional Aboriginal knowledge in action as local traditional people guide you through a range of environments and teach you about how people survived in this region as hunter gathers until the mid 20th century.Spend time visiting various clan estates with Traditional Owners and see and experience a variety of country ranging from rocky uplands, woodland and floodplains and onto the beaches and mangroves. View ancient rock art sites and experience the beauty and power of this remote and picturesque area.
Visit the renowned Maningrida Arts and Culture Centre (the Djomi Museum), where you may purchase quality traditional Arnhem Land Aboriginal Artwork at rock-bottom prices.
We hope that each guest leaves with a solid understanding of the local indigenous culture and an insight into how it relates to modern Australian culture.
