Both were ignited by their passion for travel and the development of their home country. Nearly 15 years later, the idea to start ASISTEN Travel was born on a 4×4 expedition on the west coast of Madagascar. They remain involved in the day to day management of the company, providing their unique touch and insight to each customized itinerary.
