Day 2:


We start up the day with a pickup at your hotel, after breakfast, and head to the entrance to the jungle path into Karthala. From here we spend a day staging an incursion deep into the nature of the island and through the forest and volcano at the center of Grand Comore, which last erupted about 15 years ago and supplies the nutrients (and beautiful black sand) of the green isle and seashore, exploring with a veteran local guide in the archipelago, looking for live rare species in the evergreen slopes, and will also stop at the archeological dig of "the dragon path" on the way back.

We will start at any hotel of your choice in the island, and head to the trailhead, where we will spend half a day hiking leisurely in the forest and volcano slopes at the base. It can take the whole day for the roundtrip circuit through the evergreen conifer forest to the black sand and lava summit area with bizarre vegetation, so bring as much water as you may need for the day and any snacks. 

A lot of totally endemic plants and birds, all rare by their very essence of evolving on a remote detached island, live within the forest. We will try to spot them in the woods and slopes today as we go.

On the way back down and back to town, and depending on your pace, if there is time and the researchers and locals have opened it to the public, we may stop at the "dragon" dig and archeological site here, a few km away (small island, but lots of nature and history.)

*Please note a moderate to high level of physical fitness is required to summit Mount Karthala and Karthala Volcano. It is also perfectly acceptable as an alternative to do a beach and forest nature hike today rather than the summit, as an alternate.

Return to the hotel in the late afternoon. | Overnight at Golden Tulip

We head out to delve into spices and flavors that the island generates for the world...from Chanel Number 5's ylang ylang (the "flower of flowers" to bourbon vanilla (the "bourbon isles" were this chain spanning Comoros to Madagascar (where the plant was first grown in Nosy Be) down to Reunion (the inventor of the pollination method) and Mauritius. The bintang snack, coconut rolled with garlic and spices, is our evergreen favorite, but there is tons of delights to discover! We hit the white and black sand beaches of the ring road and circumnavigate the volcano the rest of the day, taking in some of the best and most secluded spots to last us up until sunset.
