The best wildlife tour depends on what animals you want to see. For lemurs, chameleons, and rare birds, we recommend Andasibe-Mantadia National Park. For dramatic landscapes and unique species, Isalo National Park and Tsingy de Bemaraha offer incredible biodiversity.

  • Andasibe-Mantadia — lemurs, chameleons, rare birds
  • Isalo National Park — ring-tailed lemurs, dramatic canyon scenery
  • Tsingy de Bemaraha — unique karst wildlife & limestone formations

We design wildlife-focused itineraries combining rainforests, national parks, and coastal ecosystems — giving you the chance to see animals found nowhere else on Earth.

We recommend at least 10 to 14 days for a comfortable and fulfilling experience. The island is large and travel between regions takes time.

  • 10–14 days: Ideal for combining national parks, cultural visits, and coastal relaxation
  • 15+ days: Perfect for a complete adventure across multiple landscapes
