The Royal Botanic Garden Sydney
In the heart of Sydney (Warrane), on 30 hectares of lush land overlooking the Harbour Bridge and Opera House, the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney offers a peaceful refuge rich with Gadigal culture.
Guided by First Nations knowledge holders, the Garden invites you to discover the deep stories, history, and knowledge woven into its plants and pathways.
Two signature tours invite you to connect deeply with Country. On the Aboriginal Bush Tucker Tour, you’ll wander through the Cadi Jam Ora garden and discover how native plants have been used for thousands of years as food, medicine, and tools, and how these traditional ingredients inspire modern cuisine.
The Aboriginal Harbour Heritage Tour offers a cultural perspective on Sydney’s iconic waterfront. As you stroll along the foreshore, your guide shares stories of Gadigal lifestyle, traditions, and the enduring spiritual connection to land and sea.
Whether you’re a local or a visitor, these tours offer a meaningful and exciting way to experience Sydney through the eyes of its First Peoples.
