We have proposed this itinerary in order for one to see Papua New Guinea, this beautiful country in depth, stay with villages, chat with them and learn more about the cultures and traditions of the different tribal groups. All cultural activities will be in village environment, which is far better than festival stages for large groups of Tourists.

This an excellent program for those who wish to learn the different cultures, have very close contact with the village people and participate in traditional activities. The areas included are the most excellent areas for such purposes. This program is still suitable to any other time of the year.

The above land cost is based on 6 pax participating, however, if you have only one or two people, we will honor this cost.
