ZAHANA PHOTO TOURS

As the saying goes: Pictures tell a thousand words.

Update December 2021:

A picture galley was a good idea in 2005 when we started with our website (long before Instagram). Our picture galleries now get very few visitors. It takes a great deal of time and efforte to created photo pages and westopped updating the picture galleries . We hope you enjoy the pictures we have.

We hope you will spend some time exploring the different stories told with pictures that you can find on this web page.

We hope these photos provide you with a visual insight into the village life of Fiadanana and now also Fiarenana in Madagascar. We tried to keep the text to a minimum just to provide you with enough context to let the photos speak for themselves. It is difficult to choose among the many pictures, and links on this page are growing over time.
