WELCOME TO THE EXCITING WORLD OF NIUGINI HOLIDAYS We have an extensive knowledge of PNG and look forward to helping you plan your unforgetable tropical holiday.
Papua New Guinea is Australia’s closest neighbour, lying a short distance north of Queensland. This predominantly Melanesian country offers outstanding cultural and geographical diversity and is an exceptional travel experience.
Transport options in PNG range from travel by modern jet
aircraft, helicopter and luxury vessel to open backed truck
and dug out canoe. Accommodation options are similarly
broad and visitors can enjoy international standard hotels
and facilities, or live at a more relaxed pace in village style
guesthouses and traditionally constructed lodges.
Visit Papua New Guinea to dive into an outstanding
underwater wonderland, trek some of the world’s most
physically demanding and rewarding trails, reel from world
class fishing action, or discover pristine rainforest teeming
with untold species of unique flora and fauna. Learn about
ancient cultures and rituals, delight in the joy of interaction
with welcoming villagers, see how intricate works of art are
created and marvel at the incredible spectacle of colourful
shows and festivals.
Visit historic WWII sites
Revisit some of the most significant battle sights of WWII
and hear village elders recount stories of the “Big Fight”, or
wander through the National Museum and admire one of the
finest collections of primitive art in the world.
See active volcanoes, tropical fjords, unbelievably blue waters
and lagoons, picture perfect offshore islands with white sandy
beaches, magnificent mountain gorges and vistas, extensive
river systems, cascading waterfalls and untouched coastal
scenery.
Papua New Guinea offers a unique cultural diversity, where
the people create some of the most beautiful and astounding
body decorations in the world. From the brightly coloured
“bilas” of the coastal villagers, to the eerie, mysterious painted
Mudmen and elaborate Huli Wigmen of the Highlands.
There are numerous festivals throughout the year, where
communities join together to celebrate special events, creating
colourful spectacles for all to enjoy. Major events include the
Highlands Shows of Mount Hagen and Goroka, the Rabaul
Mask Festival, Independence celebrations throughout PNG,
and Milne Bay’s Kundu and Canoe Festival.
Step back in time
To the relaxed pace of Melanesia and
experience a land of diverse attractions, ranging from awe
inspiring mountain vistas, to arguably the most spectacular
diving and coastal scenery in the world. Papua New Guinea
is fast becoming known as one of the few remaining,
ecologically sound frontiers for the interested traveller. Here
the jungles and forests protect brilliantly plumed Birds of
Paradise and stunningly coloured butterflies and insects. The
surrounding oceans abound with a myriad of fish species and
pristine coral reefs.
