papua new guinea safe for solo traveler?
I'm thinking about traveling for 2 weeks in Papua New Guinea. The
travel advisory is pretty intense: http://www.safetravel.govt.nz/countries/png.shtml I'm male, and I've traveled a lot by myself (the last 2 trips were east africa and brazil by myself), and I like adventures, but even this scared me. Is it safe to travel to? I was looking to do 5 days of diving, and then spend the rest of time checking out the beautiful country. Do I have enough time? I've always been dying to go to Papua New Guinea, but if it doesn't work I'm going to instead go to Australia.... I'm leaving in 2 weeks, and I just decided to go yesterday, so I'm trying to figure this out quickly. thanks in advance! |

PNG is risky. Law and Order is as much in the hands of the 'Raskol Gangs' as
the Police. I'd give it a miss!! wrote in message ups.com... I'm thinking about traveling for 2 weeks in Papua New Guinea.

thanks everyone for their advice. OK, it looks like I'm going to go
to Australia. I just don't think I have the time to do PNG correctly, and to do it safely. I would need more time to plan it and research it. thanks! I can't wait! |
