MASAOLA RAINFOREST AND NOSY MANGA BE BE SEA KAYAKING AND CANOE JUNGLE EXPEDITION TOUR FROM MAROANTSETRA MADAGASCAR


This trip is for active and adventurous medium-budget travelers to Madagascar who want to head into the far wilderness, foray into forests untrodden and seas unsailed, and spend their time diving into more remote regions of the island where few tourists go and more of the primal and untouched landscapes still exist, removed from roads and infrastructure and mandating every form of mobility to access. - You will need to fly a small aircraft, drive offroad, ride a private motorboat, AND trek in order to get to the base lodge of this trip, and it is one of the most rewarding yet rigorous on the island today.
