Outdoor lovers will marvel at the epic landscapes and the incredible diverse vegetation. Within a few days you may pass through everything from deserts and sandstone canyons to tropical rainforests and terraced rice paddies.

There are many ways to enjoy this spectacular nature frame: breathtaking treks, mountain biking, kitesurfing, rock-climbing, scuba diving, snorkeling amongst rainbow colored fish, swimming with turtles or boarding a whale-watching boat to admire humpback whales breaching.

If you just wish to relax on a secluded beach and enjoy a romantic get-away with your partner, 5000 km of a spectacular coastline will be waiting for you: turquoise sea, crystal blue waters and idyllic sand beaches, and plenty of natural pools!

Despite its natural resources and cultural wealth, the majority of the Malagasy people are very poor and the poverty can be seen almost everywhere: be prepared for it. If you’re willing to help, we’ll be happy to put you in touch with great community-based structures.

Safety in some parts of the country is considered being an issue, according to several embassies websites. Our advice is to be vigilant, like in many places in the world: don’t show off your belongings, when in doubt ask for local advice and keep a low profile.
