Cruise Description |
The landscapes emerging from the coastlines of Papua New Guinea are like no other. Tropical fjords shaped by volcanic activity, dense jungle containing ancestral secrets, uninhabited idyllic islets and turquoise waters... all are invitations to discover this fascinating and wild land, home to no fewer than 700 ethnic groups. Between encounters with Papuan communities, the traditional shows of the mysterious Asaro Mudmen and snorkelling sessions in search of breathtaking sea life in the Solomon Sea, you will fall under the spell of these preserved remote lands, the region’s veritable uncut diamond.
The wildlife encounters are possible experiences and cannot be guaranteed. |
