birdie 131 Daniel Walker Post Count: 4 Msg: #1 373 days ago, November 8th 2008 | greetings all, | i am planning to travel through papa new guinea around june next year. i have heard little about this country and some of the bigger questions i have about this country are mostly to do with travel costs and things to see and do. do you require a visa for PNG if you stay under 30 days? what is the most popular and cheapest means of transport? Is it very touristy at this time of year in PNG? are there many dive sites and nice beaches around? can you rent a motor bike over there? I would be intersted in anything anyone has to say about this country in regards to tourism, culture and adventure!!

First of all, PNG is a great country and I would certainly encourage you to visit. But on your specific questions: - Whether you need a visa depends on what passport you hold. Nationals of some countries can buy a visa on arrival which will allow them to stay for up to 60 days. - Amazing dive sites and beaches. Madang, Kavieng, Kimbe, Tufi, Alotau are all recommended! - Not many people here ride motor bikes, so renting one could be tricky. Let me know if you have further questions.
