Your adventure begins in the capital, Antananarivo, before heading to the lush region of Andasibe, home to the famous Indri lemurs and mist-covered primary forests. You then travel north to the Amber Mountain National Park, with its waterfalls and crater lakes, followed by the surreal landscapes of the Red Tsingy and the dramatic limestone formations of Ankarana.
The journey continues toward the southwest with the discovery of the legendary Avenue of the Baobabs, the Kirindy Reserve—home to the elusive fossa—and the Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Finally, sculpted canyons and natural pools in Isalo National Park mark the climax of this epic adventure.
