# Kokoda tour operators Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Papua New Guinea
filmer 12:18 UTC 10 Mar 2007 | Hi all, I'm looking for a Kokoda tour operator with a very good knowledge of the military history of the trail (able to point out troop movements in battles on the trail etc.). I've scoured the web and seen their claims, but to those who have hiked it, how knowlegable was your tour operator? Which one did you use? |
