JOIN US ON OUR WEIRD AND WONDERFUL MADAGASCAR PHOTOGRAPHIC TOURS

The world's fourth-largest island, Madagascar is another Galapagos,a huge island off the southeast coast of Africa. Called by some ecologists as the eighth continent, it broke off from Africa's eastern coast some 160 million years ago and developed in isolation, and today the Malagasy people are warm and friendly, and the land, from the rain forest to the spiny desert to the beaches, is a wonderful place for Madagascar Photographic Tours. Wonder away from the main touring places, and you are likely to stumble across a market, a street fair or a group of musicians; providing highly treasured photographic souvenirs.

On amazing Madagascar Photographic Tours, wide angle lens will be useful for these bold creatures, but you will want a long lens for the shyer forest creatures. A macro lens will be useful because of the weird and wonderful range of insects, the wide variety of chameleons,black widow spiders, boa constrictors and frogs. Taking a close look at some of the tiny plants and animals during Madagascar Photographic Tours reveals an extraordinary world. The most spectacular moth is the comet, one of the largest in the world, with a beautiful silver cocoon.

A visit to Madagascar's most accessible Special Reserve, Périnet-Analamazoatra, is a must for anyone interested in the flora and fauna of the eastern rain forest, and this reserve protects the largest of the lemur family. Your leader on our tour will be Dr Strat Liddiard, who has travelled to Madagascar on many occasions. His passion and energy will ensure that you get to see and photograph all the best that this island has to offer.
If you would love to see one of Madagascar's biggest chameleons,Chameleon parsonii, which is bright green and 60cm long, with twin horns at the end of its snout, then an Madagascar Photographic Tour is a must for you. C4 Images and Safaris is going there in November and you do NOT want to miss it!
