Visit Madagascar, an exotic island-nation with a mixed cultural heritage and a stunning array of endemic plant life and wildlife, including 35 species of lemur. See Madagascar through the eyes of a local, as your Madagascan tour leader gives you a first-hand insight into the rich and colourful tapestry that makes up his or her unique homeland. Visiting special reserves set aside in rainforest terrain leads to an awareness of Madagascar's rich natural heritage and ultimately garners further support that they be earmarked for protection so that future generations can continue to appreciate them.
Tourism helps a poor country like Madagascar to preserve vestiges of its rich cultural heritage. By visiting various villages and remote communities, travellers get to appreciate the intricate diversity of this country as exemplified by the many and varied cultural experiences on offer. A visit to the Antandroy tombs also opens up a window to the past.
Tourism in Madagascar is in its infancy and to support programs there we are training our tour leaders on a variety of issues, from environmental awareness to First Aid. This not only assists in the conduct of a tour but also provides leaders with important life skills.
Ultimately, a journey to Madagascar is about discovering rare wildlife that are only found on this island. To see the almost human-like sifakas prancing away on their hind legs or to see ring-tailed lemurs warming their bellies in the sun, is to see the 'cute' side of nature - a side that is sure to warm our hearts, but should also serve to remind us that all living creatures are ours to preserve and protect. Once they are gone, it will be too late.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
