Discover Sydney's Indigenous Heritage

Experience Sydney through the perspective of its original inhabitants and gain valuable insights into one of the oldest surviving cultures on earth.
In The Rocks, beside the Sydney Harbour, you'll find evidence of ancient Aboriginal life amid historic sandstone buildings. Tours reveal the stories and significance of these places to the Gadigal people, part of Sydney's Eora Nation, offering views of Sydney's history not commonly known.

Learn about Australia's Indigenous heritage by taking part in activities such as bush tucker walks and the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb, enriched with tales from the Aboriginal community. These experiences don't just share knowledge; they allow you to connect with the spiritual essence that encompasses Sydney.

1. Aboriginal Bush Tucker Tour - Unveil the secrets of the Royal Botanic Garden’s indigenous plants and their uses. Enjoy tastings, traditional damper bread, and finger lime jam.

2. Barangaroo Aboriginal Cultural Tour - Discover the stories and traditions of the Eora nation in Barangaroo Reserve. Learn about plants, tools, and the significant role of Barangaroo herself.

3. Burrawa Indigenous BridgeClimb - Admire breathtaking city views from the Sydney Harbour Bridge, enriched with Aboriginal narratives and cultural landmarks. Contributions from each climb support the Tribal Warrior charity.

4. Blak Markets - Shop for authentic aboriginal products at markets held quarterly at The Rocks. The initiative supports Indigenous-owned businesses and communities. Don't miss out on their annual National Indigenous Art Fair.

5. Australian Museum - Explore exhibitions showcasing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, including tools, sea country traditions, and play areas for kids. Guided tours are available.

6. Bangarra Dance Theatre - Experience contemporary Aboriginal dance performances at the Sydney Opera House or at the Walsh Bay Arts Precinct, telling stories through movement.
