A phenomenal wildlife experience
Unbelievable diversity is prolific in the unique ecosystem of Madagascar
Madagascar offers a safari experience like nowhere else. You won’t find the Big Five here, but you will encounter wildlife that exists nowhere else on Earth – around 90% of the species here are endemic. From lemurs leaping through the rainforest to chameleons the size of your thumb, it’s a place that’s constantly surprising, often strange, and completely unforgettable.
What we love about Madagascar is the sheer variety of landscapes and the sense of discovery you get travelling through them. This isn’t a polished, high-gloss safari destination – and that’s part of its charm. You might swap traditional game drives for forest hikes, boat trips, or night walks, and the lodges are often small, characterful, and owner-run.
There’s a raw, adventurous edge to travel here that appeals to the curious and plenty of comfort for those who want it. We often recommend combining a few different ecosystems: the lush eastern rainforests, the otherworldly rock formations of the Tsingy, and the dry deciduous forests of the west. And of course, it’s one of the few places where you can round off a wildlife-focused holiday with some time on a tropical beach.
In short, Madagascar is for those who want their safari with a twist – more offbeat, more hands-on, and full of wildlife you won’t see anywhere else.
