Everything included in the Roon Island journey, plus 3 days immersed with the Torrowar Tribe.

Extend your Roon Island adventure with three unforgettable days in the forests and mountains of Papua.

Discover traditional village life, rainforest landscapes, wildlife, and authentic cultural encounters far from the modern world.

The Torrowar Tribal Expedition

After experiencing whale sharks and life on Roon Island, continue deeper into Papua with a three-day journey into the remote Torrowar Territory of the Wandiboy Mountains.

Travel by 4WD through pristine rainforest, meet the Torrowar people, and discover a way of life that has remained largely unchanged for generations.

Stay in traditional wooden houses, equipped with mosquito nets and comfortable inflatable sleeping mats. Join the tribe as they hunt, gather, and prepare food from the forest and rivers, then share memorable meals together in the heart of the wilderness.

This is more than an extension to your journey—it’s a rare opportunity to experience one of Papua’s most authentic and remote cultures.
