Why should YOU visit Madagascar?

Madagascar, the world’s fourth-largest island, is a holiday destination like no other, offering a rich tapestry of unique experiences for travelers.
This biodiverse paradise boasts attractions that can’t be found anywhere else—from the otherworldly limestone formations of the Tsingy de Bemaraha to the enchanting Avenue of the Baobabs, where centuries-old baobab trees create a surreal landscape. Madagascar’s national parks, like Andasibe-Mantadia and Ranomafana, are havens for wildlife enthusiasts, providing opportunities to spot the island’s famous lemurs, chameleons, and countless endemic plant species.
For beach lovers, Madagascar's coastline offers stunning, secluded beaches, with Nosy Be and Île Sainte-Marie providing world-class diving, snorkeling, and whale-watching experiences.
Adventure seekers can hike, kayak, or take on a 4x4 road trip through the island's varied terrains, while culture lovers can explore the vibrant markets and traditions of cities like Antananarivo and Fianarantsoa.
With a blend of extraordinary nature, adventure, and cultural richness, Madagascar promises an unforgettable holiday for those looking to explore one of the world’s most unique destinations.

Exploring Madagascar is not for the feint hearted and, unless you are truly adventurous and have loads of time, is not worth attempting to plan it yourselves.
MadagasCaT is an experienced, respected tour operator with an extensive network of suppliers and people across the entire island, meaning we can keep a close eye on your progress and fix any potential issues before they happen.

More happiness!
"Harriet arranged a perfect week for us in Nosy Be. We just wanted to relax and dive and she booked us into the Ravintsara Wellness Hotel where we had a very spacious bungalow surrounded by lush tropical gardens and beachfront, of course.
The dive centre that was recommended was just along the beach and were professional, friendly and well equipped. We dived almost every day! And swam with Whale sharks on 2 occasions - an absolutely awe inspiring life event for us.
We really want to do it again Harriet and will be in touch again without a doubt." J.H November 2024
