PRIORI
wants to show all possible aspects of Madagascar to the visitors. Because Madagascar
is an island with very many and quite different life-areas. PRIORI wants to
open doors for the travelers, would like to manage contacts to colleagues of
your profession and would like to get you into conversations with the population.
We promote 'ecotourisme': trips, which care about ecology and the human nature.
We would like that the visitors and the visited get something out of it. As
a result in the course of the past years many contacts between travelers and
traveled have been created and continue still up to today. Of course, we attach
also a high value to reliability and a good preparation of your trip. Since
we are permanently on the site, we know exactly the atmosphere of Madagascar
and are able to react quickly to unforeseen events as well as we can arrange
special-wishes.
The trips are entirely conceived in the country. The net value added remains
in Madagascar.
The PRIORI-team would like to
show you the sunbathed palms, but the shadows under them as well.
