About this trip
This trip moves through some of Madagascar's most distinct landscapes, from the rainforest of Andasibe-Mantadia to the dry forests of the west, with wildlife the focus throughout.
You'll spend time in Andasibe-Mantadia National Park, one of the country's best spots for lemurs, before heading to the surreal Baobab Avenue and on to Kirindy Forest, a rare stretch of primary dry forest known for fossa sightings.
It's a wildlife-led route across the island, covering rainforest, dry forest and open savannah landscapes in one trip.
What you'll do
- Track lemurs in Andasibe-Mantadia National Park, including the indri and, if you're lucky, the aye-aye
- Join guided walks through Analamazoatra Special Reserve and Mantadia National Park
- Stand among the centuries-old baobabs of Baobab Avenue
- Spot habituated fossas around the ecolodge in Kirindy Forest
- Take a night walk in Kirindy to look for nocturnal species like the Madame Berthe's mouse lemur and giant jumping rat
- Look out for reptiles, amphibians and birds across the parks, including orchids in bloom (September to January)
- Wildlife viewing is weather and season dependent — fossas are more active from October onwards, and orchids bloom between September and January
- Involves long drives between sites, including around 3 to 4 hours from Antananarivo to Andasibe
- Night walks are part of the itinerary, which suits those happy to be out after dark for wildlife spotting
