This tour is a must-do for anyone visiting Sydney. The knowledge we learned from our Gadigal tour guide was completely necessary for any Australia tourists due to the history of the nation, and the Aboriginal people who inhabited it for over 50,000 years. Learning about the culture and history of an indigenous tribe, in the heart of Sydney despite the massive changes to the land, felt like we were in a different world. We left with so much respect, understanding and awe of the people who had such a physical, spiritual and metaphysical connection to the land we’ve been falling in love with. Knowing what happened when Europe colonized Australia made us very pensive, but having this tour to show us the beauty, spirit and sophistication of the people who knew this continent inside and out was completely and utterly inspiring. Since the tour, we have purchased multiple books and art pieces made by Aboriginal people. Our journey started with this tour, and we plan to bring the knowledge and inspiration with us back to America.
