VISIT Madagascar
The fourth largest island on Earth, Madagascar is a global conservation priority as one of the most biodiverse places on our planet. Boasting a remarkable array of unique flora and fauna, with 90% of its plant species only found in Madagascar and 110 species of lemur, of which 94% are threatened with extinction, the beauty of this rich island is juxtaposed with the extreme poverty and malnutrition driving the country’s deforestation and habitat loss. Nearly half of its natural forest cover has been lost since the 1950s due to habitat degradation, slash and burn agriculture and fires. A journey to this rare and distinct landscape offers exploration of its diverse geographies, from lush rainforests to deserts and pristine beaches, alongside the opportunity to understand how grassroots solutions are working to both protect the unique biodiversity and promote local conservation cooperation and alternative forms of livelihood.
Hosted journeys:
Madagascar
We do not currently run a hosted journey in Madagascar, however we encourage you to sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know when we do, or for inspiration when thinking about a private experience. Teeming with an abundance of endemic flora and fauna and home to a vast array of ecosystems, expect to hike through jungle trails, kayak along meandering river beds, snorkel with whales and engage with an unique and fascinating culture during a journey to this wild land.
Create your own
private journey
If wildlife, wild landscapes and experiential activities are your thing, look no further. A journey to Madagascar can incorporate everything from the most rustic natural tree house, equipped with hammocks and mesmerising oceanic views, to the most exclusive private island where every comfort is catered for before you think to ask. Here, you’ll discover weird and wonderful species, warm hospitality, and opportunities to contribute to real, positive impact.
Conservation
impact
Our Impact Pledge is our commitment to support the advancement of pioneering conservation projects through direct donations with every journey. In 2023, and our second calendar year, we raised and directed over $50,000 to grassroot conversation projects. We do this by created hosted and private conservation travel experiences in Madagascar and around the world.
