Magic of Madagascar

12 days from US $4,760 pp twin share

Madagascar – a far-off land of exotic landscapes, stunning coastline and dancing lemurs

Why we love it:
  • Be enchanted by the local lemurs and watch the white Verreaux's sifakas dancing across the sand
  • Spot chameleons with half the worlds chameleon population calling Madagascar home
  • Plenty of opportunities for adventure, with optional hikes including through the lush 81,540 hectare Isalo National Park
  • Domestic flights which mean more time to enjoy the beauty of Madagascar and less time on the road
  • Visit the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ambositra, a small town known for its Zafimaniry woodcarvings and handicraft.
