Hello Travellers,

Greetings from Papua New Guinea.

Great Discovery Tours Ltd, an Inbound Tour Operator in Papua New Guinea would like to take this opportunity to highlight few aspects of Papua New Guinea that may be of interest to you and/or your clients.

Papua New Guinea (PNG) lies entirely within the tropics, just south of the equator, and is located 160 km to the north of Australia. Its’ mountains, valleys, rivers, and islands untouched by commercial development, provide unlimited adventure and excitement for the special interest visitor. There are treasures of unusual artifacts, museums, galleries and war memorial sites and cemeteries for historians and collectors. It offers a diversity of culture and physical activities. It is regarded as one of the last frontiers in the world because it still has a great, vibrant and diverse cultures and virgin natural environment, something that other countries no longer have today. Many parts remain unchanged by time and technology where traditional lifestyles are still vibrant and are being preserved for the future generations to come.

Visit, the Highlands of PNG, lately revealed as one of the first subsistence farmers to exist in the world or a coastal village and enjoy the smiling and friendly people, go diving in the deep blue ocean of the South Pacific, go canoeing in the mighty Sepik River and see the impressive collection of traditional artifacts, see world War II relics and spare a thought for the thousand allied Australians, British and Japanese and other forces whose traveling was restricted by war. Go birding and see the huge collection of bird species this country have or the orchid collection that ranges from the smallest to the largest species that exist in this world.

Come during the great festival periods and experience the displaying of different magnificent cultures in full traditions performing to their best to out class each other.
