De surprenantes rencontres en Papouasie

Athan de Jefalgi Papua Tours nous a accompagnés durant 4 jours en Papouasie. Serviable, à l’écoute, il fait tout pour satisfaire ses clients. Il nous a aussi aidés à gérer nos vols vu les retards ou annulations des lignes intérieures. Grace à lui ses connaissances, nous avons vécu des expériences extraordinaires dans des villages papous. Très sérieux tout en ayant de l’humour, nous ne pouvons que vous le recommander.

Trip to Korowai Tribe - West Papua

Hi all...I have to say that Athan and his team delivered everything that was promised and even above our expectations. The Koroway trip was organized the safest possible way. We felt ourselves as very valuable parcels that have to be treated with best possible care and accuracy – the food was good (prepared by a cook Telly), we always had a dry place to sleep and even had bathing places prepared for us all over the way.

We had an experienced with our papuaguide , who is leading the Koroway tours for more then 20 years, and has a best knowledge about the rain forest and tribes living there. Athan also was very helpful, when we finished the trip and stayed in Jayapura. We asked him to organize a short diving trip, and he did that in one day for a very reasonable price. What can I recommend: if you plan to visit Koroway tribes, do that now, as people are moving from the forest to the nearby villages and in next 10 years tree houses will be on the pictures only. Take with you rubber shoes – they are the best for walking in the mud. And chose Jefalgi tours as tour operator – effective and honest company. Thanks - Daiva, Lituania

The Yali People Trekking

I am now safely back in Scotland and would like to thank you for arranging a very enjoyable trek to the Highlands for me. I travelled to the Yali Highland region with Jefalgi Tours organized by Athan in September/October 2024. The trek was quite demanding.  The trip was very well organized, the guide and porters were friendly and helpful.  Food was good. Saw some amazing sights and thoroughly enjoyed the whole trek.  I would recommend this trek and Jefalgi Tours.

Jonas and the porters looked after me very well and I enjoyed their company. The trek was demanding but I did not find it too difficult. I do a lot of difficult trekking in Scotland, sleeping out in sheep sheds and rough shelters in the wilderness, which keeps me fit.

I hope I will go back to Papua so please send me your full list of treks. If I do go back, I would have to arrange it just for myself again as I do not know anyone else who is interested in this kind of trek. Chris Wipper- Scotland

Professional Tour Guide in West Papua

Our guides were capable and conscientious. The equipment was first class. The food was gourmet. We camped 7 nights in mountain, often on uninhabited islands, and as one who has no particular fondness for camping, this was paradise of Papua.  Monica - Swiss

Hello Jefalgi Tours

Dear Athan

I hope everything is great with you and that business is going well!

Sorry for the late email but I just wanted to reach out to you and thank you for the trip earlier this year 2023. I had a great time and got to experience truly unique encounters with the Korowai people, something that would not have been possible without the services provided by you and team of Jefalgi Papua Tours. Once again, many thanks for arranging an outstanding trip :-) See also my review in the World's biggest travel site of Trip Advisor.  With best regards
