The Kokoda Trail is our most famous trek here in Papua New Guinea, it is also the highest tourism revenue earner for PNG. It is steeped in WWll history and is an emotional and physically challenging walk. We have spent many hours on the track opening up new areas for trekkers to visit pertaining to the Kokoda campaign. 

Come and climb our challenging little mountain, Mt Wilhelm, PNG and Oceania’s highest mountain at 4509 meters. This is one of the most stunningly scenic areas of Papua New Guinea. For a smorgasbord of culture come visit us in August. Combine climbing the mountain followed by attending the famous Mount Hagen cultural show. Not to missed.

PNG is generally warm to hot and humid throughout the year. There is a rainy season, which varies from province to province, however, in general, it's driest from May to December. The air is clean; watch out for sunburn, particularly in the Highlands, even on overcast days. Up in the Highlands it is a lot cooler and wetter.

Our Cultural Tours are suited for a wide range of trekkers and travellers, with tours ranging from beautiful and vibrant cultural shows to amazing treks that are much more manageable for the less experienced trekker.
