Goroka Day: Asaro MudmenVillage Tour

As the main hub in the Eastern Highlands Province of PNG, Goroka is most famous for the Goroka Show that celebrates PNG's independence day the second week of September. The show is a gathering of hundreds of people and different tribes bringing their customs and rituals together. 

Goroka is not only surrounded by beautiful mountains but also many traditional villages. The Highlands, in particular, is renowned for their impressive headdresses and attire that has changed very little over the course of 100 years. 

In addition to an up close and personal experience with the famous Asaro Mudmen, you will also visit another very unique village. The culture and lifestyle of the villages in throughout PNG are incredible and an experience that you will not find anywhere else on the planet. 

Itinerary:

The tour will begin this morning at your hotel, after breakfast, or from the airport if you are arriving early from Moresby. Your guide will pick you up from your hotel of choice around 8am.

“You were quick as I was about to email you myself with information regarding my tour last Saturday Chris.On a good point I get your message - Your guide Florence Bunari was outstanding.Florence was an amazing source of valuable information, and we laughed a bit at my wish list of things to find. The driver and the other guy in the van were also great. Helpful and smiling all through the tour.The War Cemetery was so special and peaceful. We did see from the outside the Parliament House.By far my favourite place was the wonderful Port Moresby Nature Park (they have recently changed its’name). Plants, flowers, animals - absolutely terrific.The security is such a sad part of life in Port Moresby and the scary prices of EVERYTHING, guarantee ones stay will be brief ! I am presuming that this huge security staffing makes all things so massively expensive. I can’t see any other reason why the prices are sky high !It certainly will put visitors off from exploring Port Moresby and I wasn’t aware of seeing any tourists at all in my stay. Everyone I spoke to were there on business. PNG value tourism is therefore so so needed!While I will discuss should anyone enquire, what my trip was like, Please give my best wishes to Florence and as a big traveller ( I have been to 55 countries ) Africa, India, Myanmar , Indonesia, Solomon Islands, etc etc wont bore you - Florence was the best tour person I have ever had. A nice person, educated and I admire her for actually walking the Kokoda Track - sadly I think I’m a bit too old although fit, to do it myself. My days of backpacking are now over.Thank you for organising the tour."
