Über Valiha Andonimaraina

As a firm believer in the transformational power of travel, I strive to create unique and memorable experiences for every traveler who joins GassyTour.

I believe deeply in the importance of encounters, connection with nature and shared moments. These essential elements transform every trip into an unforgettable adventure. For me, travel is not just about seeing new places, but about living every moment to the full, losing oneself in the beauty of the world and finding oneself through discovery and interaction.

I let myself be guided by curiosity and wonder, always seeking to offer journeys that touch the soul and respect our planet. It is with this vision that I create each itinerary, in the hope of leaving a positive and lasting imprint, both on hearts and on the lands we explore.

Each trip is designed to have a positive impact not only on the individual, but also on biodiversity and the destination itself.

Lieblingsdestinationen

My dream destination: Madagascar's northeast coast, near Masoala and Marojejy.

The places that have touched me most in my travels: Itampon'Ihorombe plateau, on the RN7 before arriving at ISALO, and the Zaha'Riake viewpoint, high above Mahajamba Bay in the west (in the picture).

Sustainable  Tourism in Madagascar,  Certified Travelife in 2018 

« Those who share the same traveling supplies are united in life »

GassyTour is a Travelife-certified tour operator founded in 2008. It was driven by the vision of our General Manager, Philippe Frappat, who was deeply impacted by his immersive experience in the heart of Madagascar's villages and local communities. 

When he arrived in Madagascar, he was immediately captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the landscape: lush forests, pristine beaches and majestic mountains. But what touched him deeply was the warmth and hospitality of the local people.

The locals, though living modestly, opened their doors and their hearts to him, sharing their customs, their stories and their way of life. These authentic experiences revealed to him another side of Madagascar, far removed from the usual tourist clichés.

This is how GassyTour was born, a Tour Operator who puts the emphasis on human encounters and authentic experiences to create a meaningful travel experience. This is reflected in the design of our four main travel categories: emblematic, eco-discovery, upscale and alternative. 

GassyTour quickly became a bridge between travelers and Malagasy communities. We offer immersive, experiential trips that respect the environment and local traditions. The entire team works hand-in-hand with villagers to develop tours that benefit everyone. This promotes sustainable and equitable tourism, notably through AAVIMA or Association Accueils Villageois Malagasy en Action.

Today, GassyTour has become a key player in sustainable tourism in Madagascar, offering unique experiences and contributing to the development of local communities. 

And it all began with a journey, encounters and a deep love for an extraordinary island.
