Madagascar Lemurs and Landscapes

Inspirational natural wonders holiday to Madagascar

See Madagascar's lemurs and landscapes in this private charter itinerary. With faster transfers it covers a host of national parks capturing all of Madagascar's treasures, from rainforests and tsingy (needle-like rock formations) to baobabs and endemic fauna. There's an opportunity to go hiking in Isalo, and the landscapes throughout are spectacular. Madagascar is a naturalist's goldmine, with seldom seen species of mammals, reptiles and birds, most of which will be seen on walks, hikes and night walks.

You will also get the chance to see the capital Antananarivo with incredible views at every turn, a vibrant mish mash of colonial and modern architecture, French boutiques and bustling craft markets, cobbled streets and colored balconied houses.
