Embark on a voyage of discovery to Madagascar, an island country whose unique flora and fauna, amazing scenery and fascinating cultures make it one of the world’s most extraordinary destinations.

You will take in an incredible diversity of landscapes, from the arid plains of Isalo National Park with its dramatic sandstone rocks, to the lush rainforests of Andasibe. Here you will have the opportunity to meet some of the country’s most iconic creatures – including the impressive Indri lemur – and discover endemic plants with the help of knowledgeable guides.

This itinerary concludes with a five-night stay on an enchanting private island off the coast of Nosy Be, where you will stay in a thatched bungalow with uninterrupted sea views. With fine white sands, exceptional corals and turquoise waters literally at your doorstep, there are few finer ways to end an adventure in Madagascar.

Now comes a completely different but equally fascinating region. You will fly back to Tana before making a three hour drive to Andasibe.

Also known as Perinet, the Andasibe-Mantadia National Park is renowned for its population of Indri lemurs – the largest of the species. With a number of habituated groups located within the park’s boundaries you can expect some excellent sightings of these iconic animals.
