Experience the Heart of Yalanji Country

Step into one of the world’s oldest living cultures and landscapes.

Beneath the emerald canopy of the Daintree Rainforest, where ancient rivers carve ancient stone and the Great Barrier Reef shimmer with dreaming tapestry, the Eastern Kuku Yalanji Elders extend their hand in welcome for you to come walk with them caring for this extraordinary palace.

Yalada Tours

Yalada Tours offers a range of unique experiences where you are not just passing through the landscape. You are received, honoured, and woven into the song of this place, where rainforest and sea whisper their ancestral wisdom, where every tree, every stone, and every tide has a story to tell.

This is more than a journey; it is an invitation—to listen, to walk with care, to awaken to the living stories of the land and work alongside us to protect it.

Join one of our tours or contact us to design something special for your group.

Our  most popular tour is an immersive three day,  two-night journey through the ancestral homelands of the Eastern Kuku Yalanji people—where the Daintree Rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef. 

Our immersive cultural experiences are led by Yalanji Elders and Rangers, blending storytelling, ceremony, adventure, education and conservation. Join one of our tours or contact us to create your own exclusive experience.

Yalada Tours invites you on a range of experiences from an hour to a week.

We specialise in creating bespoke experiences for groups whether you are an individual looking for adventure, form a university, school, business or family we can create an experience for you.

By Invitation from our Elders only

Make connections and lasting friendships, walk sacred paths, snorkel crystal waters, be a part of our work and plant trees in reforestation projects, and learn ancient knowledge passed down through generations.

From Port Douglas in the south to Kalkajaka (Black Mountain) in the north, our journeys can take you deep into exclusive backcountry dreaming tracks, where the red earth meets rainforest and river.

With exclusive access to sacred places, a range of accommodation options including Daintree River Falls and the James Cook University Research Observatory, and intimate group sizes, this is more than a tour.

It’s a rare opportunity to connect to Country, culture, and community.
