As a matter of fact, these plants are cultivated all over the island.
Nosy Be is a tropical island that benefits from an exceptional climate, flora and fauna.

It is the unlimited splendor of natural beauty and attractions that keep Madagascar a place full of life, fun and tourists from all four corners of the world. For the reason, numerous flights fly to Madagascar from London on daily and weekly basis. Some offer cheap flights to Madagascar while other are aimed at giving a lavish and luxurious business and club class service to make air travel smooth as silk. However, a large number of tourists are more concerned to find cheap flights to Madagascar whether in economy or business.
