22 Learn about quinine berries and other native fruits Indigenous Partnerships APT's long-standing partnerships with traditional landowners provide access to unique experiences and exclusive locations. Our partnerships work towards keeping the Kimberley pristine and preserving Aboriginal culture for a flourishing Indigenous future. Respecting the Environment & Aboriginal Culture APT has a responsibility to both our customers and to the unique cultures and environments to which we go. Partnering Wunan for a Sustainable Future Wunan was established in 1997 to drive long-term socioeconomic change for Indigenous people, and APT is proud of its partnership with this vital organisation. Our touring program and financial investments assist Wunan, while our network of wilderness lodges create employment opportunities for locals. Enjoy Exclusive Access APT's relationship with local traditional landowners has led to the development of several permanent wilderness lodges. We have employees from local communities at our Mitchell Falls and Bungle Bungle Wilderness Lodges. We're also proud of our unique partnership with the Djabulukgu Association, providing access to highly restricted areas of Kakadu. Visit sacred sites, including Cannon Hill, Hawk Dreaming and Arnhem Land. See through Indigenous Eyes In special locations, you may be joined by local Aboriginal guides who'll enlighten you with fascinating stories, giving an invaluable insight and leaving you with a greater appreciation for this ancient land. Proudly Giving Back to the Local Community At APT, we are devoted to helping local Indigenous people reach their potential and pursue their goals. We helped a remote community by contributing towards the cost of employing two teachers to educate children of the Mitchell Plateau's Kandiwal community. We also supply the talented artists of the Imintji community with art materials. Our lodges provide the perfect exhibition space and give our guests the opportunity to purchase this unique artwork. By strongly encouraging the production and sales of artwork, we are supporting a sustainable future for local communities through preservation of this ancient Indigenous culture. By choosing APT, you directly assist the community development of the population, by helping the community to learn to prosper from the opportunities that exist across the region and beyond.
