Incredible trip !
An incredible tailor-made trip organized by 261-Exp in Madagascar !!
A real immersion into wild nature, local encounters, and breathtaking landscapes.
The team knows the terrain inside out — and that makes all the difference in Madagascar, where unexpected twists are just part of the journey!
They handled every situation calmly, efficiently, and with a smile.
Super friendly, always available, and really attentive — we felt supported from start to finish, no stress at all.
Great organization, authentic places to stay, passionate local guides…
A smooth, rich, custom experience. Huge thanks to the whole 261-Exp team 🙏
I totally recommend them!
Amazing 😻 they know what they are doing very professional always there for their clients satisfacti
I had the absolute pleasure of working with 261 EXP for my trip to Madagascar in May 2025, and I can confidently say it was one of the most enriching and seamless travel experiences I’ve ever had.
From the very beginning, the team at 261 EXP demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep local knowledge, and a genuine passion for showcasing the beauty and diversity of Madagascar. Every detail of the itinerary—from the breathtaking landscapes and wildlife encounters to the handpicked accommodations and warm local guides—was curated with care and precision.
What truly stood out was their ability to balance adventure with comfort. Whether it was tracking lemurs in Andasibe, cruising along the Pangalanes Canal, or relaxing on the pristine beaches of Nosy Be, each moment felt thoughtfully crafted and deeply authentic.
261 EXP not only delivered a flawless trip, but they also helped me connect with the heart and soul of Madagascar. I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to discover this incredible island in a meaningful and memorable way.

Excellent, amazing team.
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an expertly organized tour through Madagascar, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the tour company demonstrated a high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and deep knowledge of the island’s unique cultural and ecological landscape.
Our guide was exceptional—fluent in English and Malagasy, incredibly knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the country’s history, wildlife, and traditions. They provided insightful commentary throughout the trip and ensured that we engaged with local communities respectfully and authentically.

An Outstanding Company
261EXP is a first-rate tour company offering customizable trips in Madagascar. After doing some reading and deciding where I wanted to go, I searched the internet for companies offering tours to those places, mostly national parks where I hoped to see lemurs and other wildlife for which Madagascar is known. I received a prompt response from 261EXP, and discovered that all their tours listed online are customizable, available as individual tours with a personal driver/guide.
Over the next two weeks, I worked with Christina Thomas via email to add two days to their Vezo Experience tour, so that I could visit Andasibe, as well as national parks along the Vezo Experience route from Antananarivo to the southwest coast. Arrangements included all my airport transfers, accommodations, daily breakfast, local guides and spotters, and the domestic flight back to the capital at the end of the trip. When I arrived, I was ever so happy not to be driving myself, or packed into crowded public buses!
My assigned driver, one of the company’s founders, has 17 years experience as a professional driver/guide. His driving skills were truly impressive, as he avoided potholes, straddled missing pavement, dodged errant pedestrians, animals, rickshaws, bicycles, and other hazards on the roadside, and managed to squeeze past hundreds of cargo trucks on the narrow roads. At one point I asked how he managed to memorize every pothole between Tana and Toliara. He just smiled and said it was ESP.
Apparently 261EXP has very good relations with others in the travel industry of Madagascar, because they provided excellent local guides and spotters for hikes in national parks, very comfortable accommodations in hotels with scenic locations, excellent restaurants, and courteous staff.
Overall, I had an exceptionally enjoyable and truly unforgettable experience in Madagascar, mostly as a result of finding 261EXP to organize the trip for me. I highly recommend this company to arrange a tour for you!

Made traveling a beautiful but complicated country so easy!
I saw the ancient Baobab trees and got up close to tons of lemurs, chameleons and other wildlife and got to see both sides of the ocean. Overall was an amazing experience! Christina organized all my guides, resorts and hotels seamlessly from the second I stepped out of the airport to when I return to leave and customized my trip to what I wanted to see most. All of her tour guides spoke perfect English and were fun and knowledgeable about the area wildlife and culture.
I'm glad I chose 261-Exp as Madagascar is an amazing country to visit but can be really difficult to navigate. I think I would have made a lot of mistakes if I tried to plan this trip myself.
