Reviews from Real Guests:

Bella Tama: Port Moresby Nature Park is one of a kind. I mean i am a papua new guinean but the animals and birds that they have in the park are just amazing, most of them are some of the endangered species and some are of importance to the country. The park is just amazing! My favorite spot is where the traditional yam house is.
