Welcome to Madagascar
"At the end of an exhilarating day of trekking and tracking we'd rush to get the lamps lit and the fires burning before the African night descended in a rush of mysterious jungle sounds."
Madagascar has been isolated for over 165 million years, creating a biodiversity resource of global significance, with over 80% of species found nowhere else on earth, including leaping sifaka lemurs, lesser mouse lemurs and even the elusive fat-tailed dwarf lemur. Reptiles include tortoises, snakes, iguanas and a vast array of chameleons, including both the smallest and largest in the world. The variety of life is reflected in the strong cultural heritage of the Malagasy people, contributing to the island's name as "Island of the Ancestors" with their belief in the power of the dead to protect and guide the living.
