Jahya is a lovely guy who knows the area well and is passionate about his country! We had a great week with him.

Jahya is an excellent guide. His enthusiasm, intelligence and all round great nature made exploring Madagascar so much more interesting. He's flexible, curious and willing to go the extra mile to ensure that you have a wonderful experience in that exotic place. I'd highly recommend him for your travel guide.

one of the best parts of our visit to Madagascar was being with Jahya (pronounced Had--yah). He is smart, knowledgeable, honest and fun to be with. He knows about the flora and fauna, the history, the geography and more. We had a few other guides in Madagascar, he exceeded them all by leaps and bounds.

he is an excellent tour guide

Jahya was our gateway to Madagascar and he provided an excellent introduction to the country and its ways. His English is terrific. No language barriers. I actually had one day alone before the tour started and he helped me find the kind of shopping I wanted. We all enjoyed just being with Jahya as a person as well as his tour guide skills. Some skills are natural to the person. The one day we had a different guide the results were not the same. Because of the time she wasted, we missed a museum because it was closed. Some people are born to work easily with people, even total strangers. Jahya is such a person. He even carried my husband's backpack when the weather was hot and we were climbing in a temple.
