The Mamberamo River Expedition is an in-depth exploration journey to one of the wildest and most remote areas in Papua. Often referred to as the “Amazon of Papua,” the Mamberamo River cuts through pristine tropical rainforests, home to extraordinary biodiversity and indigenous communities that live in harmony with nature.
This expedition is no ordinary tour. Participants will travel down the river in traditional boats, explore virtually untouched forests, camp in the open wilderness, and interact directly with local communities. You will witness firsthand how the local people maintain their traditional way of life and utilize natural resources in a sustainable manner.
Each day of the Mamberamo River Expedition brings new challenges and experiences, from navigating remote tributaries and observing exotic flora and fauna to spending the night in the heart of the forest surrounded by the authentic natural beauty of Papua.
