The tours provide a unique insight into the aboriginal life and history of Shark Bay, which is referred to by its traditional name throughout the tours – Gutharraguda. Aboriginal people can be traced to Shark Bay for thousands of years. Tours take place over Peron Walk Trail (Wulyibidi Yanayina), which bypasses significant historical landmarks including a Gnurri (cave). This cave has a number of archeological links to Aboriginal life, with a recent excavation indicating aboriginal people used this cave as shelter more than 1,000 years ago.     Participants are invited to embrace the traditional EUR philosophy of education, understanding and respect of both the environment and cultural diversity. Capes was taught this philosophy by his ancestors – it is a significant and highly regarded historical philosophy of Aboriginal culture.   In the spirit of celebrating and respecting Indigenous culture, historical protocols are adhered to including a traditional welcome, which takes place at the commencement of all tours. This welcome is spoken in Malgana (local) and Yamaji (universal) Aboriginal language. Part of the tour takes place in a traditional Mia Mia (hut) constructed of sticks collected off the bush floor over a three-year period. Local dreamtime stories are shared with participants – including the stories of the Nyarluwaddi (seven sisters), Jabi (Thorny Devil) and Buyungurra (Turtle). These stories have been passed down through story telling at traditional camps throughout Indigenous history and they demonstrate how Aboriginal people are connected to this part of the country. These stories are shared only with the community elder’s permission.  Wula Guda Nyinda Aboriginal Cultural Tours are dedicated to providing an authentic Indigenous experience, which are conducted with respect and sensitivity to the rich history of Gathaagudu and the way Indigenous people continue to play a vital role in the social, cultural and economic life of the region.
