1 NIGHT in Antananarivo

Gateway to the extraordinary

Antananarivo offers a lively introduction to magnificent Madagascar: a bustling center vivid with boutique hotels and a glimpse into Madagascar’s unique cultural blend before the adventure begins.

3 NIGHTs in Andasibe

Lush forests and quirky lemurs

Walk through verdant montane forests, alive with butterflies and birdsong, as you search for the remarkable Indri Indri, the island’s largest lemur. Unwind and recharge poolside through the heat of midday: enjoying a relaxing lunch, or visit to the spa, before the sun sets and you return to the forest. Guided night walks reveal nocturnal species, while dense rainforests immerse you in Madagascar’s extraordinary natural biodiversity.

1 NIGHT in Antananarivo

Traverse and explore

A scenic drive through the wild spaces of the island returns you to the capital, giving you time to explore local markets and discover everyday Malagasy life.

3 NIGHTS in Namoroka

Stone forests and hidden species

It is an adventure just getting here – from a scenic flight, then crossing a river by boat, before hopping into your 4×4 to navigate remote areas filled with villages, fields; and on into the wilderness. A cold beverage and ylang ylang scented towel wait for you on arrival. Explore dramatic tsingy limestone formations, and caves and forests where rare wildlife thrives. Watch lemurs leap through the canopy, enjoy secluded picnic settings, and discover species once thought extinct in this remote and remarkable park.

3 NIGHTS in Anjajavy

Indian Ocean serenity

Complete your journey seaside, spending days enjoying wild beaches where lemurs jump between palm trees. Stay at Madagascar’s only Relais & Chateaux property where attention to detail and effortless hospitality shine. Enjoy the ritual of afternoon tea in the gardens and watch the sunset from the pool. Enjoy fresh seafood, coastal walks, night exploration and visits to the turtle sanctuary.
