Our adventure, round-tripping from Nosy-Be, is a journey into a land of dramatic contrasts—a global biodiversity hotspot where life flourishes in every direction. On shore, discover a sanctuary where vast mangrove swamps lead to the legendary forests of towering baobab trees, home to an array of endemic wildlife.
