PERSONALISED TRIP TO PAPUA NEW GUINEA

Papua New Guinea is a country in Oceania, occupying the eastern half of the island of New Guinea and numerous offshore islands. It lies in the southwest Pacific, north of Australia and east of Indonesia. The central part of the island rises in a broad mountain range known as the Highlands, a territory that is so densely forested and topographically forbidding that the island's local population remained isolated from each other for millennia. It's an adventure in itself just to travel there.

It is one of the most diverse and mysterious countries on earth, with more than 850 indigenous languages and at least as many traditional societies. The very interesting history of the country, which only gained independence in 1975, hardly affected the many tribes. They lived as they did 1000 years ago, regardless of which power ruled the country, and still do to this day.

It is also one of the most rural and least explored countries, culturally, biologically and geographically. Papua New Guinea is known for its pristine coral reefs, beaches, active volcanoes, rainforests, hiking trails and traditional tribal villages. No other destination offers the same in terms of raw beauty, tribal cultures and wildlife.
