Il fiore all’occhiello del viaggio

L’esperienza che più di tutte racconta il carattere di questo itinerario e lo rende davvero speciale.

The Batwa Trail is definitely a sustainable experience; you will meet the Batwa Pygmies and learn about the rich traditions of these forest dwellers; distinguish with them medicinal plants, their characteristic dwellings, and witness their traditional dances

Desideri aggiungere qualche giorno extra al mare?

Prima di tornare a casa puoi aggiungere qualche giorno di relax al mare (nelle mete che ti suggeriamo sotto) per concludere l’esperienza nel modo più rigenerante.

→ Potrai segnalarci l’estensione mare direttamente nel form di richiesta.
