Rainforest Candlelit Dinner & Theatre
Experience Code: FTF634Description
Light a candle and ignite your senses on a journey set deep in the candlelit theatre of the oldest rainforest in the world. Explore mysteries of time, rare indigenous culture, customs and cuisine in a theatrical and dining odyssey which brings to life the stories and secrets of this ancient place.
The curtain raises with your journey to a hidden place… You are collected from your accommodation and leave the highway down a winding road as the forest welcomes you into the night.
In a secluded glade your evening begins… You are taken back in time to the birth of the ancient rainforest… Here you see, feel and hear about the origins of a culture and a relationship with the forest that has been in existence for over 40,000 years. Venturing on, you light a candle and are led deeper into the forest.
During interval, relax with a tropical banquet including local exotic produce, fine wines, fruits and spices, or chat to our chef about the new flavours you’ve savoured as you dine in one of the most magnificent settings in the world - or merely sit back on the tree sofa, and let the scene entrance your senses…
Slowly the lights dim again and the evening unfolds, as it would have many generations before with an ancient tale from the Aboriginal Dreamtime. In humble response, the rainforest then tells its story – until the golden light again reveals another path to the present, an Aussie yarn or two. And finally, before you depart, if you leave your mark in our handmade book, one tree will be planted from that signature and you will have contributed to preserve local habitats, and these soul nurturing rainforests will last another million years…
