ADVENTURE TOURS
My favorite game, taking people out, where no one else goes.
It's unrealistic to organize those tours for individuals and I suggest you gang
up with friends to launch those expeditions.
Attention, Those tours are aimed at a special attendance!...
This is not hard core adventures but serious trips, for sure... They're
mostly engaged and, once on your way it might be a real issue to get back
to civilisation rapidly. Those are barely examples of what
can be done.
Be creative and dare, ...
Logistics are essential and bringing some comfort in the bush requires
heavy logistics.
Few technical sections, the difficulty comes mainly from remoteness.
you won't be racing and rythm is totally human.
To help you, I stuck arbitrary levels to each itinerary.
However I had totally unfit and unexperienced guys enjoying 4 red lezards,
three weeks long.
You're on vacation and we will do our best to ease the burden
of life. You carry only your day pack and our team take care of all the
logistics.
Alimentation is treated with care and we try to serve balanced
diets for active people. All you have left to do is enjoy the pleasure
of exploration, sharing with open hearted people, and count the stars,…
You could see what very few foreigners get the chance to grab.
An unique occasion to cross territories totally free of the influences
of tourism development.
I will say different from what our colleagues offer.
Our idea is to go further,
wilder,…
The best option is to gather a group of friends and head out together
Prefered dates are quite compulsory for evident climatic reasons
if you're by yourself, you can always try to contact me, I manage
to group individuals, once in a while Of course there are many more options
to combine all the local spots; Those are just the most "Classics",

April-December :
Cruise Majunga-Nosy Be.
15 days Tana-Nosy Be. I love that one. A great navigation along the north-west coasts,far from the tracks. Deserts and deep
bays, lonely islets, a good representation of what paradise should look
like. Many activities and excursions, visit of Anjohibe caves, Doany Manja, Moramba bay, Radama islands, ....

a day in Ifaty.
