1 BOOK BEFORE 31 DECEMBER 2013 AND SAVE 800 PER couple Legends of Papua New Guinea An expedition cruise from Papua New Guinea to Micronesia aboard the MS Caledonian Sky with a pre-cruise visit to the Highlands 29 th March to 16 th April 2014
2 Travelling independently in Papua New Guinea can be difficult, with little infrastructure in place to accommodate for tourists and information about getting around often scarce. This is of course what makes the region alluring to the genuine traveller, but also why travelling with 100 other passengers aboard the MS Caledonian Sky, one of the finest and best equipped expedition ships in the world, is an ideal way to explore this fascinating part of the world in comfort. Gaferut Ifalik PAPUA NEW GUINEA Ambua Lodge Port Moresby Guam FEDERAL STATE OF MICRONESIA Satawal Mussau Island Rondon Ridge Tingwon Island Rabaul Trobriand Islands D Entrecasteaux Islands Bonarua P apua New Guinea is a land of striking natural beauty and a hybrid of diverse and unique cultures, with more than 1000 tribal groups, each with different traditions. The region possesses exotic wildlife, turquoise seas, tropical rainforest and steep sided volcanoes with breathtaking islands scattered to its east and north. On this journey of contrasts we will witness an astonishing array of cultural ceremonies, and explore the beautiful D Entrecasteaux Islands and the Trobriand Islands offering exceptional underwater experiences. We continue to the little visited islands of the Federated States of Micronesia which are divided into four unique states; Kosrae, Pohnpei, Chuuk and Yap. Jutting out of the sea are lush grand land masses, haloed by pristine white sands and brightly coloured coral formations, their cultures and identities remain distinctive from one another and on our exploration of the area we will learn of these fascinating differences formed by a turbulent history. Before our expedition aboard the MS Caledonian Sky begins, we have included a three night stay at your choice of lodge in either the Southern or Western Highlands where you will have the opportunity to discover local tribes and learn more of their traditions. You will visit villages where the locals are dependent on subsistence farming and understand the diversity between the cultures. During your stay in one of the wilderness lodges you will witness cultural shows which are a way for the proud local people to showcase their traditional customs. There will also be nature walks and time at leisure at the lodges to appreciate the beautiful surroundings. We hope you will join us for this unparalleled opportunity to explore one of the most intriguing places on the map. Choose your lodge experience for days 4 to 7 of the itinerary from choice of lodges below: Ambua Lodge, Southern Highlands Province Ambua Lodge is an award winning, eco-friendly lodge nestled amongst the Doma Peaks near Tari, almost 7000 feet above sea level. A favoured destination amongst birders, Ambua s rain forests have been the star of many a wildlife documentary. An incredible 217 species have been recorded here and Ambua is home to 13 different species of Bird of Paradise. Whilst at the lodge you will be in the company of knowledgeable local birding guides who cater for all interest levels. Ambua is surrounded by pristine, mid-montane jungle, a mass of interlocking tree tops and well kept nature trails venture out into this wilderness, crossing traditional vine bridges, tracing clear mountain streams to secluded waterfalls. During your stay at Ambua Lodge, you will be accommodated either in one of the round houses which are set amongst landscaped gardens and built almost exclusively from natural materials or in the main lodge building. All rooms feature unparalleled views of the valley below. Ambua Lodge has 24-hour, ecofriendly electricity, provided by its own hydroelectric power plant that generates clean, natural energy from a nearby mountain stream. The main lodge building houses the bar, dining and lounge areas and a cozy central fireplace. Tari is home to one of the most immediately recognisable tribes in Papua New Guinea, the Huli Wigmen. Proud, flamboyant people known for their ornate ceremonial wigs with dances and songs fashioned on that of the mating rituals of the Birds of Paradise - an encounter with the Huli s is bound to be memorable. During your stay there will be excursions to nearby Huli villages where you will learn about and observes everyday life of the Huli tribe, as well as the peculiarities of their traditions and beliefs. Accompanied at all times by experienced and knowledgeable Huli guides from the local area, your experience will be all the more educational and rewarding. Rondon Ridge, Western Highlands Province Located 7100 feet above sea level and near the town of Mount Hagen, on the outer fringes of the Kubor Range, lies Rondon Ridge which boasts panoramic views of the Wahgi Valley below. Over 180 species of birds have been recorded in the rainforests around Rondon Ridge including ten species of Birds of Paradise. The surrounding area is pristine rainforest and home to numerous orchid species. The lodge has hours of walking trails providing ample opportunity to explore the unique ecology of this area and during your time at the lodge there will be nature and birding walks accompanied by experienced and knowledgeable nature guides. Comprehensive bird and orchid lists are available from the lodge. Guests are accommodated in twelve tastefully appointed rooms with warmed king beds for those fresh highlands nights, with modern ensuite bathrooms. Rondon Ridge has 24-hour, eco-friendly electricity, provided by its own hydroelectric power plant that generates clean, natural energy from a nearby mountain stream. While staying at Rondon Ridge Lodge, there will be excursions which will take you on a journey through the traditions and customs of the local Melpa People. First contact with the Melpa was made in the mid-1930s when the Leahy brothers were prospecting for gold. The Melpa are said by anthropologists, to be predisposed to capitalism because of their complex traditional society in which big men earn status by accruing wealth and then giving it all away in a ceremonial exchange called Moka.

5 MS Caledonian Sky Formerly known as Hebridean Spirit, this 114-passenger vessel began her new life with Noble Caledonia in May 2012 following an extensive refurbishment. Built in the same ship yard as the MS Island Sky, the MS Caledonian Sky shares the same attributes as her sister vessel, joining her as one of the finest small ships in the world.

All feature a sitting room area and some have private balconies.

6 Premium Balcony Suite Sun deck Panorama lounge Your Day to Day Life Onboard Onboard the MS Caledonian Sky, you will not find endless entertainment, round the clock buffets and the people management which is so much a part of today s big ship style. Instead the atmosphere on board is warm and peaceful and more akin to a private yacht or country hotel in which you can learn more about the wonders of nature, culture and ancient civilisations in the company of like-minded people. A little music in the lounge or bar after dinner, guest speakers and informative port briefings from our expedition leader, all contribute to make any voyage aboard the MS Caledonian Sky a memorable and joyful experience. Dress on board is casual and relaxed and there will be no black tie evenings. Exploring Ashore One of the joys of expedition cruising aboard a small vessel is the flexibility it allows. Although we set sail with a set itinerary it is the unscheduled events that often become the highlight of the journey and with our fleet of Zodiac landing craft, we can explore inlets, fjords, bird sanctuaries, land in otherwise inaccessible places and be footloose in a way that would be totally impractical for larger groups of passengers. Your Comfort, Safety & Security Our vessel is equipped with the latest safety, navigation and communications equipment along with roll stabilisers to minimise the ship s motion. During your voyage you will have the opportunity to visit the Captain and Officers on the Bridge to check the vessel s progress by charts and learn more about your journey. On board you will also find a clinic and doctor and a lift that serves all decks. Deck Plan Panorama Deck Bridge Deck Promenade Deck Hairdresser Gym WC Caledonian Deck Buffet Pantry Hotel Manager s Office Panorama Lounge Chief Engineer Captain Reception Deck Doctor This cruise visits out of the way destinations. You will be accompanied by an expedition team and some landings ashore will be made by Zodiac landing craft.
