As morning light spreads across Papua New Guinea’s Sepik River, stilt houses, palm silhouettes and open waterways reveal the beauty of riverside village settings. Sleeping in a raised wooden lodge, with a mosquito net overhead and the river landscape beyond your veranda, brings you closer to the daily rhythms of communities along the waterway.

Let Best of PNG arrange your Sepik River expedition and bring you closer to Papua New Guinea’s riverside villages.
