Passage to Madagascar and South Africa

Price: TBD
Duke Leaders: Dr. Charles Welch

In the heart of Madagascar’s lush forests, lemurs dart playfully among the trees, while on the South African Savannah, kudu graze serenely. This is Africa in its current splendor—a vibrant tapestry of cultures, landscapes, and timeless wilderness, brimming with a complexity and richness that is truly awe-inspiring. This is a part of Africa that remains hidden to many, a continent of breathtaking beauty, dramatic landscapes, and a spirit of hope, friendship, and generosity.
