For those who’ve joined me on past tours to places like Socotra, Yemen, Syria, or Afghanistan, you know how I roll. I’m all about adventure, exploring the unknown, and diving deep into some of the most fascinating cultures in the world. And Papua New Guinea is no different. You’ll be meeting indigenous tribes, exploring lush rainforests, and experiencing life in a way that you can’t get anywhere else. It’s a real travel challenge and one for the true explorers. So, come with me!

My Papua New Guinea tour includes encounters with tribal communities, hikes through dense jungles, and experiences in places that most tourists never see. Get ready to be out of your comfort zone in the best possible way!

Why Papua New Guinea?

Papua New Guinea is one of the most culturally diverse places on Earth, home to hundreds of indigenous tribes, each with their own languages, traditions, and ways of life. It’s a place where the modern world meets ancient traditions. And most importantly, it’s still largely untouched by mass tourism.

For those of you who love REAL travel – not the cookie-cutter, Insta-famous spots – this is the last frontier. From dense rainforests to rugged mountains and unique cultural ceremonies, Papua New Guinea offers an experience you won’t find anywhere else.
