MADANG TRADITIONAL SINGSING GROUP
Adventure Cultural Tour Specials
Mt. Hagen, Goroka, Madang, Wewak, Sepik & Kiriwina Full Itinerary.
Papua New Guinea is a country of wild beauty, of breath taking landscapes, of fascinating floras and fauna. It is place of drama, solitude and sophistication. Papua New Guinea is like no other place on earth - culturally rich and geographically remote, we have so most dramatic stunning scenery in the world dotted with thousands of villages, their dwellers living the some type of existence as their ancestors thousands of years ago.We have one of the greatest rivers in the world, the mighty Sepik which snakes from the Bismark Sea inland for two thousand kilometers and is a voyage of true adventure. We have culture and tradition with annual shows with such a kaleidoscope of colorful body decoration and headdresses, dances and sing sings, it would be impossible to compare anywhere in the world.
From the rugged mountains to the coastal islands, this journey is an adventure of a lifetime. You will meet and learn about some of the tribal people of this land including the Tari Wegmen, the Kagul, the Wahgi, the Simbu, Asaro Mudmen, the and the fascinating Trobriand Islanders. Our adventure includes many village visits so that you can really meet the people and experience their way of natural life. You will explore the mightsy Sepik River by wooden canoe and spend 3 nights on Kiriwina Island (part of the Trobriand Islands), where people live a traditional lifestyle.
Our September departure features the Goroka Caltural Show, where the tribes come from all over Papua New Guinea for a two-day spectacular "singsing" - a traditional song and dance festival complete with traditional tribal clothing and body decoration. Throughout our journey, we encounter amazing birdlife, lush flora, stunning scenery and some of the most fascinating tribal people on earth.
Please Note: Papua New Guinea is one of the most culturally interesting places on earth, with many of its tribal people following a traditional life-style. This adventure has been designed to experience the villages and people of Papua New Guinea. In order to do this, we visit a number of local villages and we overnight in one village. There are overnight stays where the accommodation is very basic; it can be dormitory style and have no fans/air conditioning and very limited facilities. As much of the interior of the country has no roads or impassable ones, we maximize our time by flying from location to location and flight schedules frequently change. While we endeavor to do/see everything listed in the itinerary, nothing in Papua New Guinea goes as planned, so travelers must be prepared for changes to this program as we travel.
