Your guide, Kelly Woolford, resides in Bali which many travellers find to be the most convenient and straightforward entry-point into Indonesia. From Bali, there are daily flights to Jayapura in West Papua via Makassar on the island of Sulawesi. Therefore the usual travel logistics for a West Papuan visit involve meeting up in Bali. Kelly will arrange your internal flights from Bali to and from Jayapura or elsewhere in Indonesia if you wish.

Alternatively, connection with your guide can be made in Ujung Pandang, Sulawesi from where you will pick up the Jayapura flight together. There are other, more involved options which can be explored upon request.

A key benefit of starting and finishing your Papuan Adventure in Bali is the ability to spend some time relaxing and exploring that most magical and famous of tropical islands. We have very significant experience and knowledge of Bali and will assist you in making the most of your visit there if you choose to do that. We recommend this option as it blends perfectly with the visit to West Papua. More details about Bali can of course be supplied upon request.
