Dreamtime Southern X is 100% Aboriginal owned business running illi-Langi The Rocks Aboriginal Dreaming Tour. Private, group and school tours can be booked anytime. About The Rocks Aboriginal Dreaming Tour:
Be touched by the most ancient human culture on earth in a 90-minute leisurely walkabout with an Aboriginal guide in The Rocks, and journey into DreamTime, the culture of Aboriginal People and

legends of how their land was created. Get inspired as you discover the oldest ecology, conservation, sustainability, astrology and spiritual beliefs on earth today. Connect with Australian skies, lands, waters, and the experiences of 'always walking Country'. Feel empowered by learning how to teach others to navigate DreamTime pathways, whenever, in the city or out in the bush.
______________________________________________

illi-Langi - The Rocks Aboriginal Dreaming Tour was developed by Aboriginal Elder Margret Campbell and is led by Aboriginal guides who have permission to share these amazing stories. The tour gives you the opportunity to discover how the ancient Aboriginal Dreaming is still alive with the modern Sydney landscape and how the billion-year-old harbour, marine environment, sandstone strata, waterways, flora and fauna influenced how Aboriginal people lived in the area.
_____________________________________________

Walking the DreamTime pathways and engaging with nature requires acknowledgement of the ancient DreamTime Custodian Creators – the original bestowal of custodianship of Aboriginal people of the natural lore, especially ceremonies associated with the places and spaces of the 29 Clan Families that make up Eora Country, now known as Sydney.

‘The DreamTime Southern X’ tours are brimming with knowledge from the oldest living ecologists, botanists, conservationists, wildlife totem carriers, astronomers, climatologists and marine biologists on Earth Mother today – The Aboriginal people. The Rocks Aboriginal Dreaming Tour Directors, welcome all people to learn about The Living DreamTime Culture in Sydney, Australia. TOUR HIGHLIGHTS
