Madagascar in Depth

Take an in-depth journey into Madagascar and learn what makes this island nation so incredible. Madagascar's wildlife has developed in isolation for millions of years, and the vast majority is endemic to the island as a result. There are 33 species of lemur and you'll have an opportunity to meet them as you travel the country visiting remote national parks, pristine beaches, winding rivers and towns and cities with a culture all their own.A good level of fitness is required for this trip. With treks, camping, and long journeys, it is a challenging trip, so we recommend being in good physical condition to get the most out of your experience., There are two nights of river camping on this tour. There are no bathroom facilities, and it will not be possible to shower for three days, though water is available for washing., Road conditions in Madagascar are notoriously very poor and unmaintained. Due to government inaction and yearly monsoons, conditions can be terrible and a level of patience is required. Most of the driving days on this trip will be long and bumpy., Some accommodation inside the national parks is basic and may not have the creature comforts of hotels in bigger towns and cities. Be prepared for no wifi or air conditioning, but also for charming, tucked-away locations you won’t quite believe are real., The visible vertical drop at the Big Tsingy can be quite intimidating, especially for those with vertigo.
