Private Tour: Full day Sogeri Plateau
This full-day private tour of the Sogeri Plateau near Port Moresby is suitable for visitors who have already toured the main city and would like to see more of the surrounding countryside. While the coastline north and south of Port Moresby is dry bushy terrain interspersed with swamp, the inland road climbs to the Sogeri Plateau, a green oasis of fertile farmland and forested mountains. After an initial stop at the Bomana War Cemetery, you'll visit the Adventure Park Zoo, National Orchid Gardens and bird of paradise breeding facility before a steep climb through the Rouna Gorge to the scenic Sogeri Plateau, with optional side trips to Owers Corner (the beginning of the Kokoda Trail), the Varirata National Park with its panoramic views of the Papuan Coastline, the Crystal Rapids cascades on the Upper Laloki River and the Sirinumu Reservoir, a man-mad lake which supplies water for Port Moresby's reticulated supply and hydro-electricity generation.
