Meeting the Papuans Good morning. Wishing to discover the population of Papua, I actively looked for a guide (recommended). All the agencies offered exorbitant prices. I finally found Onesius' contact. He offered me 3 days of trekking with discovery of the tribes. The price was still very high but much less than the agencies and this is certainly the price to pay to go to a place off the beaten track. As promised, Onesius (part of the Dani tribe) was waiting for us at the airport (me, my husband and my 11 year old son). For 3 days, he showed us extraordinary sites, we were able to rub shoulders with the population. He organized meals, accommodation, administrative documents... everything was perfect. I highly recommend this guide!!!! Pauline

Dream days in Baliem Valley with tribal people I had an excellent 3 days tour. Highlight was celebration day by Dani tribe. Mock fight, dance, traditional cooking/ feast just prepared for me(I am a solo traveler). It was like a dream to spend time with a real tribal people, experience their tradition in their village. About 30 Dani people dressed in traditional outfit welcomed me. Onesius is a honest and great guide. I was very happy about his program. I enjoyed the trekking in jungle mountain and in the valley with beautiful landscape and wild river view. Crossing hanging bridge was an interesting thrilling experience. He has good team - drivers, porter, they were friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend to book the trip with Onesius. He can accommodate your needs and wish, matter how small/ big your group is. I was alone, solo. And you can request short/ long tours as you wish, he can arrange the tour with plenty of option.

Een unieke ervaring met mooie mensen We zijn 5 dagen met Onesius Lokobal door de Baliem Valley getrokken. Onesius zorgt overal voor en komt uit deze regio. Een lokale gids is wel een voorwaarde. Hij kent de omgeving, de mensen en hij heeft ons een ervaring bezorgd, die we nooit meer vergeten. We hebben als vrienden op het vliegveld afscheid van elkaar genomen. DOEN: Wil je een onvergetelijke ervaring hebben, in een prachtige natuur en hele vriendelijke mensen ontmoeten, neem dan contact op met Onesius. Hij is zeer flexibel en stelt met jou het programma samen.

Trekking and mock battle/pig feast Baliem Valley We spent an amazing 4 days with Onesius and his guides in October this year. On our first day we visited a local village, a short hike away from where we were based, for a mock battle and pig feast in a An amazing and very fun experience with much singing and dancing. The next 3 days were spent trekking through the Southern Baliem valley. We spent 2 nights in a traditional grass hut, in the beautiful village of Kilise. The hut was basic, but comfortable, with mattresses and pillow. All our food was carefully and meticulously prepared by Onesuis and his guides and was so abundant we could barely eat it all! On our first evening Onesius arranged for us to to visit the home of a local woman from a neighbouring village to experience the traditional baking of sweat potatoes using heated rocks and copious amounts of green leaves. A unique experience we shall not forget. In short Onesius is a kind, honest, caring and genuine man, who went out of his way to ensure that we were happy and well looked after at times. He is well known in the area, having grown up himself in a local Dani village, and we received a warm "Wah, wah, wah!" welcome everywhere we went. I thoroughly recommend Onesius as a trip organiser and guide. He is conscientious, reliable, well organised and considerate. He replied to all prior communication re arrangements through WhatsApp promptly. Finally, I would like to note that we initially arranged our trek with Onesuis 3 years ago and paid a deposit via Paypal. Our trip was then postponed due to the pandemic and Onesuis and I kept in touch and he honoured our previously arranged plans and deposit when we were finally able to make our trip. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
