Itinerary

 Upon arrival, meet our airport representative and transfer to your hotel, nearby the airport.

Enjoy a walking tour with the guide to the old part of Tana capital city. After the city tour, get somewhere for dinner or go back to your hotel. (Overnight at Au Bois Vert into Bed and Breakfast).

Early morning transfers to the airport. You will be picked up at 4:15AM for your internal flight with Tsaradia (TZ 702 Antananarivo – TNR 06:30 Morondava – MOQ 07:35).

Upon arrival, meet your guide, allocated for this part of the trip. Transfer directly to kirindy forest (2:30hours by car 4x4), on the way stop at Ankiba lodge to visit “baobab amoureux”. Walk in the forest for the baobabs in love as well as the different species of lemurs and birds. By the afternoon (5 PM), get ready for the walk-night excursion to the reserve. (Overnight at Relais du Kirindy hotel into Bed and Breakfast)

Morning drive to Bekopaka (7 AM) for a visit in Kirindy. Kirindy is a privately managed forest in one of Madagascar's most threatened ecosystems: its dry deciduous forests. It it famous for the giant jumping rat, but is also home to seven species of lemur and a number of endemic reptiles. The flora is equally unusual -- a number of unique species are found at Kirindy. After that continuation to Tsingy with a stop for lunch in Belo sur Tsiribihina.

In the afternoon, enjoy a pirogue trip up the Manambolo river and get a chance to see the fish eagles, or visit the small tsingy which is an easy version of the big Tsingy.

Some caves are to be visited, with stalactites and stalagmites. Also learn about the traditions around burials for the Sakalava tribes. Here people are not returning bones as people from the highland do. Bodies are taken to inaccessible cliff coves, and simply left there in the wild.

(Overnight at Orchidée de Bemaraha into Bed and Breakfast)

Start your day as early as possible as it can get extremely hot in the Tsingy.

The Andamozavaky (Grand tsingy) starts from the bottom of the pinnacles, and along the 4 to 5h walk takes you to the top of them (over 60m for some of them). It is a series of boardwalk, climbing, crawling and suspended bridges. An extraordinary but also physically challenging experience. (Overnight at Orchidée du Bemaraha into Bed and Breakfast)
