Trekking

Many operators offer trekking packages in Papua New Guinea, particularly along the Kokoda Track. If you are considering this adventure, make sure that you do your homework on the companies before making your decision. Take into account their safety record, check their credentials and testimonials, the most expensive doesn't necessarily mean the best.

PNG Holidays recommends Our Spirit for trekking to Kokoda and the Black Cat, due to their unblemished safety record. Don't get the name confused with others that have "copied" or used similar names. The trek leader, Aidan Grimes has completed Kokoda 59 times over 14 years and takes an interest in the local communities along the trail. On every trek is a trained  emergency paramedic, and where other operators claim to have medics in their groups, Aidan carries all the supplies required to ensure your trip isn't cut short by illness.
