Papua New Guinea: A Country Profile

Explore this remote part of the world with me as I go from Papua New Guinea’s mountainous Highlands to the Karawari River and Sepik in the Lowlands. With few roads, we took a charter plane between locations on the most remote experience of my life!

Cool Lodges of Papua New Guinea

The lodges in PNG are more than just hotels–they are your basis for experiencing the country and interacting with the locals. Sustainable and true to their environments, each one that I stayed on my experience with Swain Destinations had a unique personality and shaped my journey.

Papua New Guinea: The Highlands

Let’s travel to Papua New Guinea! Explore the tribes of Tari, the famous Birds of Paradise and all the adventure of the Highlands.

Food of Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea is unlike any place I’ve ever been! And of course, the food is just as unique. I visited the local market and was blown away by not only the exotic fruits and vegetables, but the entire marketplace ethos! As PNG is remote, most of what you eat is grown, harvested or caught nearby–so it is the true farm to table. Join me as I discover what the locals eat on a food tour of this wild country.
