Introduction

ABORIGINAL & TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER IDENTIFIED ROLES

On our Burrawa Climb, you’ll guide guests through a truly unique climbing experience, bringing to life First Nations perspectives as they take in breathtaking views of significant cultural landmarks. Along the way, you’ll create meaningful moments of learning, connection and pride, helping guests see Sydney through a First Nations lens while delivering one of the city’s most iconic tourism experiences.

All the stories are written in a style of truth telling and reconciliation with the option to bring your mob into the story telling if you feel comfortable doing so.
