The most memorable and special moment is hearing firsthand the most beautiful stories from your local Butchulla guide.
Walking in the footsteps of our friendly Butchulla guide, you’ll discover Hervey Bay in a very unique way.
Your guide will show you important gathering places for the Butchulla people, let you try bush tucker, teach you about traditional medicines, show you how to create art or make a fire from materials found along the way, hear first hand the most beautiful Dreamtime stories of this area and more! We promise you, this is a very meaningful and fun tour to do in Hervey Bay, you’ll thoroughly enjoy it.
Be sure to allow time after the tour to soak in all your new knowledge and experiences.
