Respecting Indigenous Cultures

At Apollo we deeply respect and value the cultures, knowledge, and connection to Country of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia, and the Māori of New Zealand. We’re committed to learning and building respectful relationships through our Reconciliation Action Plan in Australia and our engagement with tangata whenua (people of the land) in New Zealand. 

Indigenous tourism experiences offer powerful, immersive opportunities to connect with Australia’s First Peoples and New Zealand’s Māori communities. Guided journeys led by local experts help foster new connections to the land and its peoples. Use the thl Roadtrip App to find Indigenous Australian and New Zealand Māori tourism experiences near you, just filter by “Activities” and “Culture” to see what’s close by.
