Catapulted into the mainstream after the release of a hugely popular movie of the same name, Madagascar is fast becoming one of Africa’s top travel destinations. And for good reason: this gem of an island is home to an incredibly diverse ecosystem made up of pristine beaches, waterfalls, grassy plains, imposing volcanoes and impressive landscapes.
The island's biodiversity is broad and unique, offering wildlife experiences to rival safaris on the mainland. Laced with historic towns that reflect European, African or Eastern culture, Madagascar is a melting pot of life waiting to be discovered.

Madagascar Baobabs & Beyond
JENNIFER · Traveled July 2024
Ready for adventure? This was an awesome trip, led by an awesome guide! It's not for everyone. Get ready for long days without proper toilets or running water, but if you are OK with that, you won't regret it. Visiting Madagascar was a mind-blowing experience I will never forget. From climbing in the Tsingy, to lemur watching, to meeting the locals and seeing how they live, this trip has it all.

Overall you see some great things on this trip, but it is not something for those who like to maximise their day. Most of the trip is driving endlessly, and often limited time at the actual location given logistics. Accommodation mostly good, especially the boat / camping aspect, but some hotels clearly not up to standard. The trip information is largely inaccurate - you need sleep sheets not bags, you do not need as much money as they suggest. Beautiful country, but not a trip for those whose time off is precious
