Description

Day 01 (Antananarivo, Central Madagascar)

Tour Details

    • Arrive at Ivato International Airport.
    • Your ultimate Madagascan adventure starts in the fascinating capital Antananarivo. You will meet our representative who will drive you through as you are staying in the heart of the charming old town at the intimate guesthouse, Maison Gallieni.
    • Its character is enhanced by the originality of the architecture and flamboyant décor. The house has been preserved in its colonial style, with high ceilings and wooden corridors, and each of the 4 rooms has its own individual character and style.
    • Antananarivo is a city of tiered streets built in and on the twelve surrounding sacred hills, around a long, narrow rocky ridge.
    • The summit near the center of the ridge was easy to fortify, as it provided an excellent vantage point and was surrounded by marshland suitable for rice cultivation.
    • Based on the arrival time, embark on a historical city walking tour, or you can relax and refresh in the lush green gardens of your guest house on the edge of a turquoise pool.
    • Overnight stay at the hotel.

    • Enjoy your lunch before travelling onwards (a fascinating journey) to Manafiafy Beach and Rainforest Lodge.
    • A stunning and secluded luxury lodge set in rich forest vegetation right on the beautiful beach with crashing waves.  
    • The lodge has two beaches, and between the two there is a viewpoint from large granite rocks (perfect for sundowners!) stretching out into the sea.
    • The main area is designed very much in the style of an African lodge, all from natural materials including the ravinala thatch, and using local craftsmen and chalets are nestled into the forest and overlooking the beach.
    • The lodge is very proud of its eco-tourism principles using just solar power for its electricity and hot water. The food here is superb – freshly caught fish and shellfish including crab, lobster and oysters are often served, along with a delicious selection of salads and excellent, freshly baked bread.
    • Breakfasts are a treat with warm, fresh pastries and a large selection of fresh fruit – accompanied by freshly squeezed juice of the season, a real treat!
    • You can take a boat trip into the mangroves, where the bird watching is spectacular. At certain times of the year the humpback whales pass by on their migration, and the lodge has a special whale-watching boat which is deployed the moment the whales are sighted.
    • Snorkeling and swimming is offered inside the natural bay created by large granite outcrops stretching into the sea. Guests can also choose to take a night walk in a local area of forest, to spot the nocturnal lemurs, night moths, night birds and other Malagasy species.
