Port Moresby
|
Hilly urban centers and beaches framed by intensely blue waters. Bustling craft markets and a tranquil nature park. Papua New Guinea’s capital is a city filled with contrasts, with more products than ever to share with your clients. A visit to the National Orchid Gardens reveals thousands of colorful flowers that bloom all year long, and in the aviary you’ll spot beautifully plumed creatures — including the country’s iconic Raggiana bird-of-paradise. The unique architecture of the Parliament House invites photo ops, and the National Museum and Art Gallery offers a glimpse into the diverse cultures and stories from Papua New Guinea’s 22 provinces.

Mumu Restaurant
|
Authentic flavors are the heart and soul of Mumu Restaurant, located inside the Hilton Port Moresby. This signature venue was named for the traditional cooking method that is prevalent across Pacific cultures, using an earthen oven to prepare local meats and vegetables. A modern indoor-outdoor space inspired by Papua New Guinea culture and designs welcomes guests to feast on hearty dishes served family-style — from succulent roast pig, seafood and regional vegetables such as sago, yams and sweet potatoes.

Huon Birding Camp
|
On the eastern side of the island, the Huon Peninsula offers a true escape to paradise. Within this remote landscape of rainforest-covered mountains, the new Huon Birding Camp invites travelers to experience Papua New Guinea’s most celebrated wonders: brilliant birds-of-paradise that cannot be seen anywhere else. It’s a bucket-list journey for dedicated bird-watchers, but adventurers of all types will be rewarded in this safari-style camp. Birding sites are accessible by 4WD, guided by a local expert who can point out the beautifully plumed creatures, along with several other species that are endemic only to this isolated mountain region.
