Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea is a raw land, remarkably untamed and as variegated as swamp and jagged limestone; mud and moss forest; suffocating heat and Highland chill; plumed, pearl-shelled villagers and prosaic hill people; tiny tree kangaroos and enormous Queen Alexandra Birdwing butterflies.

Papua New Guinea Attractions


The Sepik

A region of islands, open coastline, good beaches and rugged mountain ranges, The Sepik is perhaps the most fascinating area of PNG. Commanding most of the attention is the Sepik River - a meandering, oily-brown, serpentine flow of water 1126km (698mi) long.

Port Moresby

Port Moresby is the capital of PNG and the major exit/entry point for travellers. A sprawling, crime-plagued city (razor wire and snapping guard dogs are everywhere), Port Moresby is probably more bark than bite and does have some interesting things to see and do.
