New Website Helps Travellers Choose a Kokoda Track Operator
Trekking the Kokoda track is the adventure of a lifetime. Kokoda Trekking Reviews, a recently released website, now makes it easier for travelers to choose the tour operator that is right for them.
Online, September 6, 2010 (Newswire.com) - For many, trekking the Kokoda track is the adventure of a lifetime. Kokoda Trekking Reviews, a recently released website, now makes it easier for travelers to choose the tour operator that is most suitable for their purpose.
The challenge of taking on the Kokoda Track is becoming more and more popular amongst Australians. Whether celebrities walking the Kokoda track to raise funds for charity, corporate teams looking for team building activities, athletes seeking a new adventure challenge, families walking the track together, or history buffs wanting to experience what really happened - the Kokoda Track can offer all this with the right operator.
"Choosing the right tour operator for our trek was really difficult" says Janna Jungclaus, who co-founded the website with her husband. "There are so many considerations: training support, safety on the track, the tour guides knowledge and of course the price."
After continually being asked for recommendations of tour operators, the Kokoda Trekking Reviews Website was born. "Not everyone has personal recommendations to rely on when deciding which operator to go with, so we decided to combine the power of online reviews and social media with our personal experience of the track" Mrs Jungclaus said.
The Kokoda Track is a 96km long track winding through Papua New Guinea's Owen Stanley ranges from Ower's Corner to Kokoda. It's historical significance stems from battles fought in the second World War between Australian and Japanese troops. Nowadays it is as much an adventure travel destination as it is a live history class, as much personal development as cultural travel experience.
With several deaths on the Kokoda Track in 2009, and many evacutations every year, medical checks, proper physical preparation and reviewing the safety procedures of your chosen operator is essential. All operators featured on the Kokoda Trekking Review Website meet our strict safety reviews.
