Madagascar is like nowhere else. You’ve got the buzzing capital Antananarivo, palm-fringed Nosy Be, and the lemur-filled forests of Andasibe. But there's more. A lot more. Think bone-dry canyons in Isalo, surreal trees along the Avenue of the Baobabs, and the mind-bending spires of Tsingy de Bemaraha, a truly wild place that's still under most people’s radar.

With Rough Guides, tailor-made travel in Madagascar is seamless. Our local experts craft every itinerary around your style, no matter if you're into hiking, diving, history, or just want to find that perfect beach on Sainte Marie. No stress, no guesswork, just a seriously memorable trip to Madagascar.

Things to know before your Madagascar trip

What does a trip to Madagascar look like?

A typical Madagascar itinerary covers a lot of ground and a lot of landscapes. You might start in Antananarivo before heading east to the misty rainforests of Andasibe. Then fly to Nosy Be for a few days of beach time, or go south to explore Isalo’s dramatic canyons.

Don’t miss the Avenue of the Baobabs near Morondava, and if you're up for something remote, the jagged rock forests of Tsingy de Bemaraha or the hot springs near Ranomafana are well worth it. Every trip is built around your interests, from wildlife to waterfalls to winding coastal roads.
