Papua New Guinea is a fascinating land of over 700 languages and associated customs.  The people of the area are very friendly and are keen to show off their culture.  

Our last Milne Bay, PNG tour ran for 12 days visited 3 different types of lodges - an island lodge, a tree top lodge in the mountains and our base lodge in Town. The adventure exposed us to flora, fauna and fun!  We saw over 74 species of birds as well as dolphins, flying fish, and a variety of small mammals.

Our next fully escorted tour will run for two weeks and we will also visit caves, explore islands and include a stay in a real life village.   Detailed itinerary and costing for next tour to the Milne Bay area of Papua New Guinea is now available.    Please contact tour guide, Stuart Andrews to register your interest.

Those of you travelling from Perth, depending on your arrival time, we can arrange a brief breakfast tour of Cairns, prior to making our way to the airport.  Please advise us if you wish to take part in this.  The cost will be about $50pp (additional).  There is not much to see or do at Cairns airport so we are providing this as an optional extra.  Some flights arrive in Cairns very early, giving an ideal opportunity to have a quick look around Cairns and enjoy a relaxing breakfast before departure.
3. For travel in PNG, a visa is required.  If travelling on an Australian passport, you can purchase this visa on arrival at Port Moresby, however it is recommended that you obtain your visa prior to departing Australia.  You will be advised  of the visa arrangements that will need to be made prior to travel.  The visa on arrival costs 100PGK (Kina) per person.
