Introduction to the Madagascar expedition |
|
| Madagascar has been described as a ‘living museum’ or ‘lost Eden’. Over 80% of its flora and fauna is unique to the country, making it a biologist’s paradise. Culfturally the island is a unique blend of South East Asian and East African influences, and the lively and colourful Malagasy people form as interesting a back drop as the spectacular geography and wildlife. Largely untouched by tourists, Madagascar does not have the same infrastructure as other developing countries. This makes it all the more challenging and exciting as an expedition destination. Whether you are travelling by foot, boat, or taxi-brousse, every journey will be an adventure. |

Our Challengers loved… The interaction with rural communities trekking from village to village in the rural highlands, which offered the chance to get truly off the beaten track, trekking through rice paddies, fields, and rainforests. On route you can haggle for fresh supplies and gain a unique insight in to rural life in Madagascar. Stopping along the route to undertake some project work truly added to the experience. After the hard work of trekking and working there was still time to relax on the white sandy beaches for a couple of days before flying home. |
