The latest geological relic of the great continental drift, Madagascar is the result of a subtle and mysterious crossroad between Africa and Asia.
The Mora Mora lifestyle
The pace of life described as “Mora Mora” (slowly), characterizes the country´s lifestyle and is undoubtedly the way to discover and appreciate the immense richness and diversity of Madagascar.
Situated in the Indian Ocean at 400 km off the Eastern coast of Africa, Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world. If the notion of Tropical Island with idyllic beach is not to put aside, the geographical isolation has made the continent a mini-shrine, home for unique species not found elsewhere on the planet: Can you imagine? 12,000 species of plants and 1,000 species identified so far. Of these, the most famous ambassadors are the lemurs and baobabs.
Cultural and biological diversity
Beyond the breathtaking landscapes and biodiversity, Madagascar is also a country with a rich culture preserved which sometimes suffers from modernity and globalization. Results of a sophisticated cultural miscegenation through waves of migration, the 18 ethnic groups share the same language, a sort of discussion with the ancestors, the rice and zebu. However, these common denominators take part in everyday life in different forms and practices across the ethnic groups.
Culturally diverse with breathtaking unspoiled landscapes, Madagascar exceeds the expectations of its most demanding visitors in every field of attraction, whether it is adventure tourism, culture, sporting or bathing.
