walk through quaint towns filled with markets and European-influenced architecture, and enjoy relaxing holiday time on magnificent Indian Ocean beaches. Combining friendly locals,
fascinating wildlife and idyllic island vistas, the Madagascar experience is a unique slice of paradise.
Reiserute
Antananarivo
Tonga soa Bienvenue! Welcome to Madagascar. Your adventure begins with a Welcome Meeting at 6pm on Day 1. Please look for a note in the hotel lobby or ask the hotel
reception where it will take place. If you can't arrange a flight that will arrive in time, you may wish to arrive a day early so you're able to attend. We'll be happy to book additional
accommodation for you (subject to availability). If you're going to be late, please inform the hotel reception. We'll be collecting your insurance details and next of kin information at
this meeting, so please ensure you have all these details to provide to your leader. Antananarivo is Madagascar's charmingly crowded capital. If you arrive early, take some time
to get acquainted with the city - hilly Antananarivo is a fun place to explore. Head to Analakey to visit the permanent street markets or seek out the restaurants and nightclubs.
Ambositra
Rise early and depart for Ambositra on the National road number 7 ( approx 260km, 6hrs ). On the way, we will briefly stop at Ambatolampy, a small town well known for its
aluminium pot workshops. Continue our journey making another short stop in Antsirabe. With the tranquillity of a small European town, Antsirabe maintains a Malagasy touch,
which it reveals in its markets and traditional quarters. Founded in the 19th century by Norwegian missionaries as a high-altitude retreat, the town was nicknamed 'Malagasy
Vichy' for its hot springs and thermal baths. Arrive in Ambositra this afternoon. Visit one of the many small workshops that specialise in crafts as diverse as printmaking,
woodcarving and marquetry. Ambositra is the home of the Betsileo ethnic group, the third largest ethnic group of Madagascar. Located close by the Zafimaniry forest, Ambositra
is most famous for its woodcraft but it's also known for its silk production, which is very important in the Malagasy culture. The use of silk was once reserved exclusively for royalty
but now everyone can wear it, though most of the time its use is reserved for the dead. When a Malagasy is buried, his body is wrapped in a large silk sheet called a 'lambamena'.
After a few years, the family traditionally goes back to the tomb and changes this silk sheet with a new one - a custom known as 'famadihana'.

Ranomafana National Park
Depart early this morning for the nearby Manandriana villages, to explore the silk process. Each village is specialised in one step of the production, fully handmade. Enjoy a
traditional homestead lunch in the village before travelling on to Ranomafana National Park ( 140km, approx 6.5hrs ). Your accommodation for tonight is a small cottage located
within the Park. Ranomafana means 'hot water' in the Malagasy language and this mountainous rainforest area is a haven for small mammals, birds, reptiles and insects, as well
as precious-wood trees, palms, bamboo, orchids and carnivorous plants. Ranomafana National Park is home to 13 species of lemur including the famous golden bamboo lemur,
first reported at Ranomafana in 1985 and one of the reasons why the government decided to protect this endangered forest.
Isalo National Park
Drive to Isalo National Park ( 330km, approx 8hrs ). On the way we will stop at the ANJà community reserve, a very good spot for observing lemurs and discovering the local
culture. Villagers will be your guides for this excursion. Your tour leader will translate all the knowledge they have to give you. Continue on to the small city of Ambalavao, and visit
of the Antemoro paper factory.
Isalo National Park / Zombitse National Park
Start the day with a visit to the nearby mining town of Ilakaka, where we'll go on a guided tour of the sapphire mines. When sapphire was discovered in Ilakaka in 1999, this small
village of a dozen houses grew into a mining boomtown, driving Madagascar to become the world's largest sapphire exporter. Today about 30,000 people live here, seeking their
fortunes in the hand-dug mine pits, or in gravel sifted from the river. During our visit, we will learn about traditional mining techniques (using “Angady” or spades), which represent
an entire life for people. Later, continue on to Zombitse National Park and witness a true highlight of Madagsacar: the bizarre Baobab Trees. Also known as 'the Tree of Life',
these native trees can grow up to 25 metres, with branches that form a distinctive roof-like structure. Baobab trees may be several thousand years old and have strong droughtresistant roots ideal for the harsh savannah landscape. Return to Isalo in the afternoon.
Fianarantsoa
From Isalo, we depart for the city of Fianarantsoa, known as the south door ( 320km, approx 7.5hrs ). This afternoon, enjoy a visit to the heritage-rich old city. Soak in the 19thcentury charm by walking along labrythine paths and admire the flower-studded balconies of local houses.
Antsirabe
Drive to Antsirabe where we have free time upon arrival to discover the city ( 255km, approx 6.5hrs ) With the tranquillity of a small European town, Antsirabe maintains a
Malagasy touch, which it reveals in its markets and traditional quarters. Founded in the 19th century by Norwegian missionaries as a high-altitude retreat, the town was
nicknamed 'Malagasy Vichy' for its hot springs and thermal baths. Colourful rickshaws, known as 'pousse-pousse', are a popular form of local transport in Antsirabe. Make use of
them in your city tour and discover tree-lined avenues, mixed European-style architecture, markets and more.
Andasibe National Park
Drive to Andasibe ( 300km, approx 7hrs). On your way, stop at the Pereyras exotic park, for a visit. This private reserve is a great spot to observe chameleons, frogs, snakes and
some lemurs as well. For those who want to head out and explore the forest at night, we have the opportunity to go on a nocturnal walk through the forest at Mitsinjo, a privately
owned reserve to spot endemic butterflies, lemurs and other nocturnal species.
Foulpointe
Head off early to reach Tamatave, the biggest commercial harbour of Madagascar ( 300km, approx 7hrs ). Please note that the roads in this area are particuarly bad and driving
times can vary. On arrival we have free time to explore the city. Continue on to the coastal town of Foulpointe ( approx 2.5hrs ), a small fishermen village north of the Tamatave
harbour. The vestiges of an ancient fort watch over the pirate's cemetery at Foulpointe. Stay in a simple hotel with shared facilities located on the beach front.
Sainte-Marie
Travel along the coast to the small river port of Soanierana-Ivongo and board a boat to the island of Sainte-Marie ( 105km, approx 2.5hrs ). We arrive at around 11.30am and
transfer to Vanivola hotel. Rooms are basic without air conditioning. The rest of the day is free to explore at your own leisure.
