Annie was great and shared heaps of her culture, stories and knowledge. Loved knowing Dreamtime stories, the several islands on the coast and discovering and tasting bush food. Anyone visiting Kepa Kurl (Esperance) should do this cultural tour from Dabungool Cultural Experiences. I've enjoyed it so much that, like a boomerang, I will return. Thank you! Boordawan, Hugo

Thanks Annie for showing us a Traditional Owners view of Esperance. Much more Interesting than the colonial monuments. Annie shared her knowledge of local plants, their Aboriginal names and uses and Aboriginal history and stories of places to remember Kepa Kurl- Esperance

My husband and I and two friends went on the walking tour this morning with Annie from Dabungool. She is a very knowledgeable guide and shared some personal insights into her experience growing up in Kepa Kurl (Esperance). We got to do some foraging for plants that you can eat, make things with etc - none of the four of us realised how versatile a simple plant can be! I highly recommend this tour.

Excellent guide in Annie, a pillar of the local community and expert guide for bush tucker and the connection to country. Annie is also an expert historian on the Noongar experience since European settlement. Highly recommended.

Die Gruppenleiterin hatte ein enormes Wissen über Heilpflanzen und das Überleben in der Natur. Auch die Traumzeitgeschichten waren sehr interessant.

Annie the guide was a delight. She had her grandson Keinan with her and he was a lovely young man. We learnt a lot of interesting facts and language and wonderful indigenous stories. Tried some interestingly tasting items from the bush and the picture perfect spots to take breathtaking scenic photos were wonderful.
Highly recommend, you can ask Annie anything and she’s a wealth of knowledge.
Easy stroll and nothing to strenuous about the walking part.

The experience was wonderful. We learnt so much about the bush and what the Nyoongar people eat when living in the bush. Our guide was very informative and happy to take it easy during the walk to let me keep up. We both loved the scenery and our cup of tea and damper bread and biscuits after the walk were most welcome.
