Expedition Vlog Day 5: Masoala
Off we go into the rainforest again today. A striped anteater runs right in front of us – incidentally, these tiny creatures may look a bit like hedgehogs, but they aren’t even related to...
Expedition Vlog Day 4: Masoala
It’s still hot today, with temperatures above 35°C, and above all dry. Whilst the little neighbouring village is celebrating International Women’s Day – an important public holiday in Madagascar – we’re setting off on...
Expedition Vlog Day 2 & 3: Antananarivo – Maroantsetra – Masoala
At last, we’re off in a north-easterly direction! In Tana, we board a small plane that takes us to one of Madagascar’s smallest airports, in Maroantsetra. The town lies right on Antongil Bay, which...
Expedition Vlog Day 1: Antananarivo – Mandraka
Finally, we’re off again! This time, we won’t be meeting up on the domestic flight, but before – as soon as all expedition participants arrive in Antananarivo. Our expeditions usually start with a ‘buffer...
Expedition Blog Day 18 & 19: Montagne d’Ambre – Diego Suarez – Ramena

Expedition Blog Day 16: Montagne d’Ambre
Time to explore the Montagne d’Ambre! This fantastic rainforest is fun every year. A little later than usual – after the long evening yesterday – everyone gathers for breakfast. We then set off on...
Expedition Blog Day 15: Ankarana – Montagne d’Ambre
We leave the hot and dry Ankarana and travel on towards the Montagne d’Ambre. The way there is actually not far, but quite long because of the poor condition of the road. We have...
Expedition Blog Day 14: Ankarana
A long day awaits us in Ankarana National Park. Finding reptiles in a dry forest is much more difficult than in a rainforest, even during the rainy season. And it gets incredibly hot during...
Expedition Blog Day 13: Loky Manambato – Ambilobe – Ankarana
We leave Loky Manambato and clear the camp. We go off-road until we reach the RN5 – in the light, we can almost see a path in places. The RN5 is freshly asphalted and...
