An amazing and heart-warming learning experience - A wonderful experience, I learned so much from Delta about the history of this place and the severe consequences of the European invasion for First Nations people, about sacred places and ceremony, Bush food and medicine, plants and so much more. And spending time with Delta was an absolutely heart-warming pleasure.

Delta, spirited guide to Arakwal country - Jingi walla! Delta is relaxed, intensely proud, articulate and deeply knowledgeable. Her stories, insights and wisdom make the walk constantly engaging and surprising. The places visited include dramatic views and beautiful rainforest but all on good paths and at an easy pace. The final bushtucker picnic was a generous sharing of delicious local herbs, berries and nuts brought to life by Delta's intimate knowledge. Highly recommended!

Learn the true history and culture of the Arakwal people and Bunjalung Country - Highly recommend Delta Kay's walking tour of beautiful Cavanbah/Byron. She shares centuries-old stories and traditions of the Arakwal people, along with Indigenous foods, tea and music. The gentle walk is easy for all ages and takes in the sights of the beach, botanicals and ocean. Delta's tour is a must for people keen to learn the true history and culture of Bunjalung Country.

If you only have time for one Byron Bay tour ... this is it ! - This is a brilliant cultural tour. Delta takes the groups on a short walking tour as she explains local Aboriginal yarns and the local history. She is a local herself and has deep cultural background. The tour winds up with a spectacular bush tucker tasting, along with a wonderful explanation of Aboriginal healing plants. Not to be missed.

deep but short insight into a respecful culture - The fishing song story of the elder touched my heart. Amazing how they rebuild the rainforest in such a short time, when all Cape Byron was a banana plantation before. Profund nature knowledge.
