SOUTH CIRCUIT

For your circuit in Madagascar, the South circuit is the most different and unique of all. Indeed, in the South, it’s not only about visiting parks and relaxations at the beach. It’s especially about meeting with the locals.

THE SOUTH CIRCUIT

One of these locals is the Zafimaniry population whose knowledge deserves to be visited because it is classified world heritage by the UNESCO. Besides, in this circuit, you will also discover the Betsileo population in all its shapes and state.

In brief, by following the railroad FCE (Fianarantsoa East coast), you will have the opportunity to meet the Tanala population (who live in the forest) in the middle of the primary forest of Southeast.

Finally, still in the south, the landscapes and the ecosystems are rich by going through the mountains, the paddy field, the plateau and the valleys. Each step is rich in culture and discovery. So don’t hesitate to choose the South for your travel Madagascar.
