About Us
True North Journeys retraces the untold story of Australian soldiers during World War Two who escaped from Rabaul crossing the Baining mountain range. Guided by experienced Australian guides, True North Journeys takes intimate groups through Rabaul and the jungles of East New Britain on an 11-day journey of discovery.
Through set and customised itineraries, TNJ takes visitors on cultural and historical trips of a lifetime.
The trek, through remote jungles and villages of the Baining Mountains, incorporates history, culture and ancient rituals, and explores the pristine waters of the Duke of York Islands. It’s a life experience that lets you find your real life. Basic lifestyle, not frills, the real thing…very real. Ultimately, you are finding the meaning in being rather than doing in your life.
True North Journeys is a member of the PNG Tourism Association and practices responsible tourism through the employment and support of local PNG staff.
The TNJ Experience
True North Journeys is a life experience that lets you discover your new direction. A destination somewhere. Every story is different and every experience is real. We take you through world histories where battles have been won and lost. Immerse yourself in our history and discover places where time has been forgotten.
Life is full of challenges…and not every life is challenged. Our journeys will take you outside of your comfort zones and challenge you to find more meaning to your life. A TRUE LIFE ZONE. We offer 6 weeks of training both physically and emotionally in preparation for the 10 day journey through primitive jungles, exploring precious islands and other seldom chartered areas. EXPERIENCE NATURE WITH YOUR OWN EYES.
PARADISE FOUND… It is a timeless journey where you can let nature take you to another place. A place where time is governed merely by day or night. There are no mobile telephones to interrupt your train of thought and no taxis to take you home.
You will experience the joys of children in the villages where their fun assists us in finding the child within. True North Journeys creates a life experience that is basic and real with some amazing moments. Upon return we will take you carefully through your debrief both physically and emotionally. Talk and reflect on what you have just discovered !!
