Amazing trip with lots of expertise!
We went on a 2-week-trip with Malagasya Travel and got to see a huge part of beautiful Madagascar. The whole trip has been organised perfectly with nice hotels, a great mix of local restaurants and the best activities we could wish for. A huge shout-out goes to our guides Luciano and Love who have been perfect! Definitely a recommendation!

A professional tour operator that made planning easy, making the trip truly unforgettablE
I had an amazing experience during my trip to Andasibe and the Akanin’ny Nofy Palmarium Reserve. The communication was flawless—quick, friendly. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, making the tours through the lush rainforests of Andasibe truly come alive with stories about the unique wildlife, especially the adorable lemurs.
The service was top-notch, from comfortable transportation to well-chosen accommodations that perfectly matched the vibe of each destination. Visiting the Palmarium Reserve and staying in the middle of nature was like stepping into another world—so peaceful and filled with rare species I never thought I’d see up close.
In a nutshell this trip was a perfect balance of adventure, nature and relaxation. I’d absolutely recommend Malagasya Travel to anyone looking for a unique Madagascar adventure.

Very proficient and knowledgeable tour organiser in Madagascar
Malagasya Travel organized a 7 day private trip through Madagascar for me and my wife. All the hotel, flight and tour guide bookings worked very well. Hotels and Lodges selected were among the best you can get in Madagascar. Drivers and cars were of good quality and brought us safely to all the destinations chosen. Pricing was reasonable. I can fully recommend Malagasya travel as a tour organiser for Madagascar. For German guests it might be important to mention that they speak German and all the organisation can be done in German.

Perfect organisation
We spent 23 days travelling through Madagascar with Malagasya Travel and were able to enjoy the beauty of this country to the fullest. The itinerary was perfectly tailored to our wishes. We had a very good driver in Christian. Thanks to him we were able to gain a deep impression of the country. Many thanks to the entire team at Malagasya Travel.

Excellent service
From the day I arrived Malagasya Travel were tops ! The accommodation I was booked into was relative to the area . I found the food at most places average as it seemed everywhere there was a shortage due to poverty and road transportation. The Malagasya Travel provided THE BEST drivers and guide. My guide Lova actually made the trip - patient, kind, caring, thoughtful and very considerate with a wonderful sense of humour ! It made all the difference with some of the sightseeing in places extreme. Alicia, the booking agent also excelled in all that I asked for.
Thank you Malagasya Travel.

Very friendly and helpful
Great tour, be aware that it takes hours to drive short distances in Madagascar due to the roads, however the untouched scenery is unbelievable.
Tour guide and driver were impeccable

Amazing touroperator!
First of all a special thanks to Hery and Riantsao. Thank you Riantsao for the communication before the trip. You reacted really fast and everything was clear. Thank you Hery for guiding me during the trip. You have such an extensive knowledge about the culture, nature, and wildlife of your country. You made the trip so good together with the driver. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Madagascar thanks to you guys. I did the tired of staying at home tour with Malagasya. It has been an amazing trip and it took me to some of the best national parks in madagascar. My only point of feedback is that some of the days were quite extensive travel days with a lot of hours in the car. I do understand it because the country is really extensive and the tour tried to cover as much as possible of the country. All in all an amazing trip guided by amazing people. Thanks you so much.
I also made video about the trip. If you're interested to see what the trip covered please feel free to watch it :).

Excellent service, wonderful trip
I contacted Malagasya Travel along with a few other operators in November to arrange a three week tour for the following March. Riantsoa from Malagasya Travel quickly arranged a detailed itinerary covering everything I was looking for, patiently answered all my questions and provided useful hints and tips to make the most of my visit. Malagasya Travel were definitely the most responsive of the operators I contacted, their overall price was clearly broken down and there were no hidden extras. Once we'd agreed the itinerary they needed a 20% deposit with the balance on arrival, and the only glitches in the booking process were at my end. I had no idea that Mastercard wasn't widely accepted in Madagascar so had to get myself a Visa card, and it was more difficult than I'd expected to find an operator who could wire the deposit, in euros from the UK, to their local bank.
On arrival my driver, Romy, met me at the hectic airport as arranged, and dealt with all the driving and administration on the tour. We spent the first day on a trip westwards to Ankafobe to a small forest where I saw my first lemurs, and the next few days travelling eastwards, staying at the Palmarium Hotel on the east coast for three nights, to see a lot of lemurs close up and a great nighttime trip to see some aye-ayes. And then we headed south, covering a lot of ground and different types of scenery, ending up at a beach resort in Ifaty.
The roads are pretty bad in Madagascar, with more potholes than I've ever seen, but Romy's driving was confident and unfazed by the sometimes very challenging conditions. We had a lot of ground to cover, but almost every day there was at least one stop at something interesting to see, ranging from national parks (with guides arranged), to Madagascar's most important aluminium foundry (which has to be seen to be believed!), to wonderful little craft workshops. The hotels were all good quality, in come cases luxurious, and often close to tourist attractions with excursions laid on.
Everything originally promised was delivered and overall I was very impressed. My only regret was that three weeks wasn't enough time to see all the island - it really is huge, but I had no time to see the north. Next time - and I will go again with Malagasya Travel.
