Excellent support and planning
From start to finish our trip to Madagascar was handled with professionalism and care. They selected wonderful lodges, worked with us to plan the itinerary, assisted on payment methods, and provided excellent guides and drivers. Many thanks!!

Prompt, professional, courteous service. Highly recommend.
After submitting a request for a quote, within 2 hours, I received a response from Malagasya Travel (Ria). She was highly professional, immediately customized the tour according to our stated goals, came up with a revised quote no later than a day. It was a multi-day tour, with a number hotels to book and tours to organize. There was absolutely no delay on her part, and this made our job of selecting the company very easy. I felt very comfortable doing business with the company, especially because of Ms. Ria.
From the time we were picked up at the airport in Tana, and until we departed, their team, our tour guide and driver, became our second family in Madagascar. There were no problems along the way. Our driver was especially skillful in navigating challenging Madagascar roads. We felt very safe traveling with this team.
I would highly recommend them.

Ria was Great and always available!
When we landed in Tana, we really didn't know if anybody would be there or not too meet us. It is a little unnerving these days when you book things on the internet and aren't quite sure what you are getting. But Malagasy agents were right there to meet us there, and every place else we went. We changed our plans many, many times and Ria went along with it and made the changes without complaining.
When I first started looking into madagascar trips, I contacted a few different companies, but no other companies were able to take us to all of the places we wanted to go. Ria replied right away and accommodated all of our requests.
We went to Andasibe, Toliara and Ifaty, Kirindry and the Tsingys, and Noisy Be. We flew around a lot instead of driving and I'm glad we did that because the roads are somewhat brutal.
Whenever we had a hiccup of any sort, I would call Ria, and she would get it fixed within minutes. They weren't big things, but things like being locked out of my room, and other little things.
We stayed in nice accommodations. We really loved everything we did, but since we are snorkelers, nosy be was our favorite. We added on a day of snorkeling, and it was a little unorganized, but that was due to the tour company in Nosy Be. Again, Ria was right on top of getting it straightened out.
Our favorite lemur encounter was up in Andesibe. It was beautiful. It's really hard to get to the tsingys, but I think it was worth it as long as you do it. The Avenue of the baobobs was nice. Kirindy was our least favorite, but at least it gave us a break on the brutal drive to the tsingys.
We had hoped to go out to the reef in ifaty, but weather conditions prevented it. We did go in a zebu cart to the spiny forest there. We went to three different islands in Nosy Be snorkeling. We returned to one of them for a 4th day. Fabulous lunches every day on the beach. Great fish. Nosy Be was or favorite place.
I guess it was good value for the money. I don't really have anything to compare it with.
I would definitely recommend Ria at malagasy travel!!!
Also, please allow plenty of time in Madagascar, because the infrastructure makes it difficult to get around.
