Madagascar is an island in the Indian Ocean, ±400km’s from the Southern African east coast. Over millions of years, Madagascar developed a unique flora and fauna. This is the place where evolution has run wild and it has such a high degree of endemism, that it is truly a place like nowhere else on earth! Madagascar is famous for their remarkable selection of lemurs, primitive primate’s endemic to the island,   brilliantly coloured chameleons & lizards, tenrecs, fossas, bats and rodents. Several early evening walks are also planned for this tour, in order to experience the “darker” side of the nocturnal creatures   -   first hand! This Tour Programme is designed to offer guests of all ages a unique experience.   We concentrate on nature and not just lemurs or plants or birds – we make time for it all! A medium level of fitness is required, as we can do quite a bit of walking. This Tour Programme is also designed to be family-friendly and photographers will love it!

Highlights on this tour include:

Baobab Alley – Tsingy’s limestone formations – Kirindi Reserve – Reniala Reserve – Arboretum – Mahafaly tombs – Isalo National Park – Anja Park – Ranomafana National Park – Parc of Marozevo – Mantadia National Park – Andasibe National Park
