    I am so glad I was part of this unique experience with Den! He is such a nice and heartful person, it was great listening to his stories and his perspective on life! The aboriginal culture is so rich in wisdom, we all can learn from them! Would recommend it 10/10

    We have visited the botanical gardens many times, but have never experienced the gardens as we did with Den as our guide. His knowledge, expertise and friendly nature made a huge impact on us. I will be organising this tour as a gift in the future for family and friends.
