Poihākena Tours: Stories of Māori in Sydney

Kotahi Tourism

2018 Winner – Projects Under $15,000

Poihākena tours: stories of Māori in Sydney is a 2-hour walking tour based in The Rocks, Sydney where Māori have lived, loved, visited, traded, worked and died since 1793. (Poihākena is the Māori word for Sydney – a transliteration of Port Jackson).

Poihākena tours bring to life the wonderfully rich stories of Māori in Sydney through tangible connections to place, hands-on experiences and engaging story telling – underpinned by Matauranga (knowledge of Māori Culture and history) and Manaakitanga (hospitality).
