# Kokoda Track booked locally during the Christmas holidays Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Papua New Guinea
dbc05930 12:31 UTC 22 Jul 2012 | I am looking to do the Kokoda track over the Christmas holidays, but the websites I have viewed are super expensive for this trek. Considering I paid $1200USD to climb Kilimanjaro in 2011; the $3500 seems overly excessive. Can anyone recommend a tour company who are more reasonable or is it possible to book locally at much cheaper prices? thanks, |

joeguycanada 11:09 UTC 12 Dec 2012 | Hey, I'm going to be there around the same time looking to do the same thing, i was planning on rocking up and hiring my own village guide and carry all my own gear and supplies. Not sure how practical that will be but with a track as commercially run as that one, I reckon it would be pretty easy with a bit of local knowledge and a price no more than $100 | 2
