THE LAND OF SIFAKA

22 days /21 nights

This 22-day tour will start with a flight to the north-eastern part of the island where you will first explore Marojejy National Park, with its thousand-year-old trees that have been identified as the island's green lung. The silky lemur "Simpona" has found refuge there and has made this mountain its one and only habitat. The trekking will start by crossing the high forests of low altitude followed by the cloud forests to finally reach the summit which dominates the whole region. Afterwards, the trip will continue by the north of the island crossing difficult routes that allow you to discover the richness of different parks like Loky Manambato with its golden crown lemurs and Analamera the only park that shelters the black Sifaka. Then, you will move on to discover the impressive Tsingys of Ankarana with its sharp peaks and the Amber Mountain with its various waterfalls to finish in Diego Suarez with its magnificent bays and its emerald sea. After this great adventure, you will return to the capital and discover the city of Antananarivo with its ancient architecture and the sacred hill of Ambohimanga which was the cradle of the ancient Merina monarchy classified as world heritage site by UNESCO.
