Julaymba

Step into the heart of the world’s oldest rainforest with Julaymba, an award-winning Mixed Reality experience that brings the Daintree Rainforest to life. In the lush expanse of North Tropical Queensland, Australia, journey alongside the Eastern Kuku Yalanji people, the Indigenous Traditional Owners of this UNESCO World Heritage site, as they share their timeless stories and deep connection to the land.

In Julaymba, the Eastern Kuku Yalanji word for Daintree, you’ll participate in a traditional smoking ceremony, learn the Indigenous language, and feel the wawu, or spirit, of the rainforest as you splash in waterfalls, encounter a giant cassowary up close, and see luminous fungi glow from your hands.

This unique educational experience intertwines culture and nature, offering an intimate, immersive journey where every moment is a chance to learn and connect with Country.
