Kick off along the buzzing Darling Harbour, then wander the historic laneways of The Rocks, see famous sites like the Sydney Opera House and experience the Sydney Harbour area through a First Nations lens on the Tribal Warrior Harbour Cruise. Then, venture into the heart of Australia and experience the awe of Uluru, Kings Canyon and many more significant First Nations sites in the Red Centre.
