The fellow who runs this place is one of only a few non-Aboriginal men who has been taught to play the didgeridoo straight from the Aboriginal elders throughout Australia, and he's very talented. So with that in mind, you don't get an authentic Aboriginal cultural experience going here. Yes, he plays the didgeridoo very well, but the bad 80s synthesizer... More

The show started about 8pm and the music is great. The band has great skill, especially the Didgeridoo player. There is a big screen which also show alot of pictures of animals and the land. Later in the show, all the audience joins in trying to play didgeridoo's and bongo's. Such a fun night for only $25. The only thing... More

The experience was excellent. However I thought the buffet could be improved by less variety - there were so many tastes, it became a jungle. And those who were later in the queue missed out on the most popular dishes. More

Very nice digeridoo/world pop music concert. Main musician speaks a bit fast, but the sounds are enchanting, if way out of original context. A bit pricey. More

I am sorry you found us 'pricey' - you might be interested to know that we have actually kept our show (only) prices the same for a number of years now knowing how financially hard it has been for many people. Unfortunately the dinner package is out of our hands but we have done our best. More

Great shopping if you are after anything made by the Aboriginal people (and very reasonably priced). Andrew, the owner of the shop is extremely talented and has extensive knowledge of the Aboriginal people. He regularly performs in an evening "Starlight" show where he plays the didgeridoo (awesome) and is accompanied by two back up musicians (mainly on drums), this is... More

I loved being surrounded by the sounds of the didgeridoo and the drums! Michael, Paul, and Hayden are amazing musicians. When I closed my eyes, I could imagine myself floating above the desert, surrounded by red sand and stars. Definitely go! Things to note: buy your ticket in advance and save $$ and get a taxi back to your hotel.... More
