    Goroka Show Tour & Highlands Journey

    If you’re thinking about the Mt. Hagen Show tour, be sure to consider the Goroka Show, one of the best and most exciting of the highland shows. Similar to the famous Mt. Hagen Show, you will witness lively, exotic performances by sing-sing groups from all over Papua New Guinea.

    This program takes you on a journey through highlands and Sepik cultures. Starting with the highlands of the Tari Valley, you will visit the flamboyant Huli Wigmen. Here, thirteen species of birds of paradise, human hair wigs, and spectacular views await the intrepid traveler seeking the ultimate journey. Your travels then continue with a cruise on the Sepik River and its tributaries. Travel next to Karawari Lodge, perched on a ridge overlooking the Karawari River and the Sepik Basin. Here, you will learn about the amazing ecology, culture, and history of this remote and amazing corner of the planet. Then it's on to the famous Goroka Show, a gathering that unites a variety of different tribes and clans together into a exciting cultural extravaganza. You will stay at the beautiful Rondon Ridge in Mt. Hagen, and you'll be transferred to and from Goroka each day by private aircraft. As your journey comes to a close, you'll head to Port Moresby, the bustling economic center of Papua New Guinea.
