This was definitely an adventure of a life time. The tour was full of beautiful locations and scenery. The hikes were adjustable for all levels of fitness but could definitely challenge you depending on what you select. With the real take away from this tour being the upfront taste of the people, their daily existence and the wonder call Madagascar. We enjoyed the journey and three weeks later we are still talking about it with a twinkle.Show more

  Traveler•Written July 2023
  I'm surprised about the price, which is almost double of what is stated on the Website. Sorry, but I cannot afford that.
- Green Island DiscoveryOperator•Written July 2023
  The price is high because the cost of the guide, the car rental and the room are at your expense as you are a single traveller. The price displayed on the website is based on 2 Pax. As long as there is not another registration or you have another traveller with you, the rate remains 4400$.
