The tour we booked isn't (yet) included in Bio D Island's tour offerings, so I used the "Cultural and Natural Wealth of Madagascar" tour as a "hook." So we had a special “Two Days in Antananarivo” tour, which included two meetings with Malagasy designers on the itinerary, so our time was a bit limited. Daniel organized these meetings for us, and we’re very grateful to him for that! Of course, the cultural highlights in Tana—such as the Queen’s Palace, the Palace Museum, the Fondation H, and the Madagascar Photography Museum—were all part of the itinerary. But what was most important to me was capturing the atmosphere of Tana—the city’s lively vibe, for example at the Analakely market teeming with crowds, not to mention the Renault R4 and Citroën 2CV taxis. And Daniel absolutely succeeded in doing just that.Show more

During our stay in Madagascar between June and July, we were fortunate enough to use the services of the BD Bio D Island travel agency, and we highly recommend them. Thanks to their impeccable organization, we discovered the most beautiful sites in Antananarivo, both culturally and scenically. The transfers were perfectly organized, and the drivers were punctual, professional, and very pleasant. All the local guides spoke fluent French and English, which made each visit even more enriching. The agency also organized fascinating guided tours for us at the Fondation H and the Tana Photography Museum, allowing us to better understand Madagascar’s history, culture, and creativity. But what truly sets BD Bio D Island apart is its ability to offer a fully personalized service. Our trip wasn’t just about sightseeing: we also wanted to explore the world of fashion design and style in Madagascar. Thanks to its incredible network of contacts, the agency opened the doors to this world for us by arranging meetings and interviews with several well-known figures in the industry. A unique opportunity we could never have experienced on our own. And since nothing was left to chance, BD Bio D Island even helped us find an excellent tattoo artist to create the very special tattoo our son had wanted for a long time. Once again, everything was organized with professionalism and efficiency. In short, if you want to go far beyond a simple tourist trip and discover Madagascar from the inside—its social, cultural, artistic, professional, or commercial life—don’t hesitate for a second to call on BD Bio D Island. Their network seems truly limitless, and their commitment to their clients is remarkable. We’re leaving with unforgettable memories, and we’re already looking forward to returning to explore other regions of this magnificent island, always accompanied by this exceptional agency.Show more
