Day 2
ANDRAMBOVATO-VILLAGE AMBALAVERO
Early departure after breakfast. Crossing hills and valleys, we first pass through Ambalavero, a remote village far from the town. The village is still ruled by a royal family who take it in turns to hold the village's sacred fetish. The queen is very respectful, and the villagers respectfully accept her reign, as her orders are often carried out politely. So we're in for a real change of scenery: our visit allowed them to welcome us in the traditional way, and they pride themselves on sharing their experiences with visitors. We have direct contact with the locals, especially the children, and we're surprised by the people around us. During the trek, we may come across people distilling Malagasy artisanal rum.
Overnight with villagers in tents.
