Luxury Safaris in Papua New Guinea Papua New Guinea still holds on to large areas of intact old growth rainforest which support an enormous biodiversity and a diverse range of endemic species. With its rugged mountainous backbone and a chain of very active volcanoes spewing molten ash clouds high into the sky, the country has a wonderfully raw but exciting feel to it. There are now a handful of brilliantly quirky and interesting lodges, offering an unpolished but delightful experience, which can be flown in to and accessed by light aircraft. They offer activities in the Papua New Guinea landscape as diverse as kayaking up its rivers, hiking to some very authentic and culturally remarkable tribes as well as discovering some of its bizarre creatures at night. The remote jungle trekking in PNG is some of the most challenging yet worthwhile in the tropics and the chance to go out on boats with the local tribespeople is highly engaging. There are famous birds of paradise in the Highlands, unexplored coral reefs and epic waterfalls tumbling down into valleys that few outsiders will have set foot in. The beauty of Papua New Guinea is quite simply the sheer lack of tourism infrastructure and the deep authenticity that this creates. It feels as if something culturally exciting could happen at any moment and delivers the more patient traveler with a plethora of unusual experiences and photographic opportunities. We run some of the most awe-inspiring expeditions that exist in PNG, with helicopters and food drops, so please ask our expedition specialist if you would like to tailor-make a never-done-before trek.
