We use traditional outriggers for this safari. There are two outriggers so once takes all the gear, packs, food, snorkeling equipment etc. You can hire a paddler and this allows you to sit on the outrigger platform relax, take photo’s or just sit and take in the beautiful scenery, or you can paddle the outrigger yourself. We have umbrellas on the boats which protect you from the sun and rain.

This is not a strenuous adventure by any stretch of the imagination. The longest day we paddle is the day we paddle back to the resort and this will take us about 6 hours at a very leisurely pace. We do have a day trek option for those of you out there who are extremely fit and would like to experience the Tufi Hinterland. Please enquire about this.

You will village hop all the way along the coast. The villagers have built traditional guest houses which you will stay in and they are situated right on the beach under the palm trees and only a few feet from beautiful blue lagoons which you can snorkel and swim in.

The villagers will catch fresh fish and lobster for our evening meals which will be complimented with village vegetables, fruit and a glass of red. Breakfast will also be supplied by the villagers. If you are unable to live on this maybe it is not the adventure for you.

You will be able to integrate with the villagers and to see first hand how they live. You will see village “sing sings” which is a cultural dance. They will demonstrate rope and fish net making and will display their artifacts which you are able to purchase. This is an opportunity that you will not get to experience anywhere else in Papua New Guinea.

We will explore the wonder of the Tufi fjords and see amazing waterfalls and flocks of hornbills flying up the fjords.

This adventure is very family orientated. It also caters for any age group. You can make it as hard or as easy as you want. If you want to paddle for the exercise you can paddle to your hearts delight for as long as you like. If you want to just sit on the platform and take in the beautiful surroundings, go for it. You can sit under a palm tree and read and sleep if that is what you want to do in the afternoons. We will have wine with our dinner each evening (red only) as we do not have the cooling facilities for anything else.

The above itinerary is not set in stone. We do this trip in 3-6 days but do not hesitate to enquire if you would like us to set up a personalized trip for you.
