Facts and figures

Concept

Our motorcycle tours are personally adapted to their wishes and expectations, prices are calculated according to the content of the final route and the selected accommodations.

The Malagasy road network is very limited, but it shows the essence. The national road 7 can be classified as one of the most beautiful roads in the world.
The low density of paved roads has created an exceptional network of routes.
As large as France and Belgium, each town, village is connected by a route or path of several kilometers...
So yes, Madagascar is to motorcycling what Hawaii is to surfing: an absolute spot!

Our French-Malagasy team, composed of motorcycle guides and specialized mechanics, will share with you their passion for this country.

FOR MADAGASCAR

After 10 months of total inactivity, self-employed people in the tourism industry in Madagascar are completely without income. There is no opening of the borders in sight in Madagascar and we are at the beginning of the rainy season, which is the low season, even in normal times. I have started a fundraiser for the guides and drivers I know well. From this money we will buy rice and other essentials and distribute them regularly, if possible, until the resumption of travel activities in April 2021 at the earliest. My special thanks to those who have already donated. I will start buying rice tomorrow and will begin distributing it this week.
