Located off the coast of Mozambique, with an area comparable to that of France, the island of Madagascar is unique. Nicknamed the Red Island, the Big Island, or even the Continent Island, it is home to exceptional biological diversity, with hundreds of endemic species: lemurs, chameleons, butterflies, orchids, eucalyptus trees, baobabs, etc. Moreover, rich in eighteen ethnic groups, the local culture is not to be outdone; there is no doubt that you will share exceptional moments with the Malagasy population, whose sense of hospitality and human warmth are no longer in doubt. Furthermore, the country boasts numerous UNESCO World Heritage sites, such as the Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, the Marojejy Massif National Park, and the Ranomafana National Park.
Bringing together practical information on accommodation, local figures to meet, transportation, and unusual places to visit, Lorraine Bennery's richly illustrated guide will help you prepare for an unforgettable stay.
