Papua Nueva Guinea:
nothing is as different
Take a simple canoe to navigate the Sepik River, sleeping in a stilt house
Discover idyllic beaches alongside authentic tribal villages
Dive in search of fish and shipwrecks
One of the furthest away places from our country not only physically but in any metric imaginable.
Papua New Guinea is located in the South Pacific. But that doesn’t mean that it’s exclusively a destination with marvellous beaches and luxurious hotels in private beaches. When you visit, you will be looking of something more
For example, volcanoes. Dormant and active volcanoes, like in Rabul, a city abandoned after the 1994 eruption that today is an overwhelming but interesting visit.
For example, ancestral cultures. In this part of the globe reside some of the most hermetic tribes in the world. In the Trobiand islands you’ll meet their ancestral customs, their fabulous harvest celebrations, their dances, the colours that cover their faces…
For example, climbing Mount Wilhem, the highest in Oceania. A demanding trek across a sensational tropical nature that finishes with a panoramic view of kilometres upon kilometres of coast.
For example, reaching the Milne bay to witness their main hobby: their canoe races.
For example, reminiscing history by walking along some of the 96km of the Kokoda path where arduous combats were fought during World War II.
For example, sailing abundant rivers towards jungle areas and villages where the closest road is hundreds of kilometres away.
And, for example, diving in waters with abundant marine species and the remains of sunken WWII Japanese and allied vessels.
Papua New Guinea is not for everyone, it’s for those who look for more.

Travel recommendations for Papua Nueva Guinea
Here are five great ideas for your trip to Papua New Guinea.
- An expert guide will go upstream through abundant rivers until penetrating deep into the jungle to contact with tribes with ancestral customs

- Diving in this country is idilic. Very few divers, many marine species, and multiple remnants of WWII sunken ships

- Up to 100 tribes get together to celebrate the Goroka Show. Powerful colours on skins, on head’s feathers, on hay skirts… And always in coordination with the sound of drums

- In Madang, you’ll find spectacular islands where you can feel like you’re in the farthest corner of the world, remote in every sense

- Papua allows you to combine intense days with others of total relaxation in crystal-clear waters and deserted beaches
