Malagasy Tours ; an ethics and values
The main advantage of Malagasy Tours, It is these men and women who have worked together since 1993 to prepare your trip to accompany you on roads and trails, to share evenings around the campfire to discuss of travel and share their passion for the country: Madagascar.
The sharing
A permanent contact with the population. Trying as much as possible to be close to people and events to understand them better. Exchanges between different cultures are always for the actors, privileged moments and intense and lasting memories.
The nature
It is present everywhere in Madagascar. We go to its contact in the parks and reserves, we approach the animals and we learn about the plants, flowers so particular in this region of the world.
Very concerned about ecology, conservation, biodiversity, we help from our best different projects in this direction.
The adventure
We will take you on a journey that will be done of discoveries, meetings and experiences. Adventure is not necessarily synonymous with unexpected or improvisation, is more a state of mind, a concept, an approach of the Travel with a big T.
Ecotourism
By this term somewhat “overused” in recent years, we mean a certain quality of tourism as well say a way to travel. Ecotourism is a responsible tourism, conscious of its role in the country toward the human and natural environment.
The ecotourist is a tourist attentive, open, interested, and traveling today without ignoring tomorrow.
