Read our article on Visiting Jayapura

Visitors taking this tour are escorted to Jayapura by our Papua New Guinean guide who lives in Vanimo and speaks Bahasa Indonesian. (English is not widely spoken in Jayapura). The guide will travel with you in a privately-arranged vehicle from Vanimo to Wutung border post where you will be met by an Indonesian-registered taxi or hire car for the remainder of the trip to Jayapura. Transport to and from Jayapura, accommodation at the Hotel Matoa, and the services of your guide are included in the tour cost. Your guide will stay at other accommodation nearby. The cost of taxi or hire car transport, daily meals and other costs while in Jayapura are not included in the tour cost. Your guide will make arrangements for you, show you good places to eat, and help you negotiate favourable prices for taxi hire and goods in the shops and markets, as required. Your guide will be at your service to show you around the city, but he will be happy to make himself scarce whenever you wish to do things on your own.
