What people love about Private Tours in Madagascar
I had an amazing experience with Travelia Safari and will recommend this company to anyone interested in visiting Madagascar! We booked a tour with Mr. Aristide from July 16 to 22. What really impressed me was how organized, responsive and flexible Mr. Aristide was. Prior to departure, he communicated with us regularly and provided us with a detailed itinerary, contract and list of items to bring (ie: medication, bug spray...etc). He also wrote us a detailed email covering the weather, infrastructure, and tipping guideline to fully prepare us for the week. We requested to make a few changes to our itinerary, and he was able to accommodate with minimal issues. Upon arrival, he arranged to have local staff Ms. Sitraka, along with our driver for the week, Mr. Toky, pick us up from the airport. One thing I would like to point out is how they have been consistently on time! Ms. Sitraka accompanied us to exchange our money and it made me feel very safe. We stayed at a total of 4 accommodations. They were all simple, but clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and the food has been absolutely delicious. We had a minor cockcroach issue at our hotel in Morondava, but we reached out to Mr. Aristide and not only was he able to quickly coordinate with the staff to correct the problem, he even managed to get us a refund on the money we paid for air conditioning. This should have been included. I had an amazing time exploring the forest for lemurs and other wildlife, and experiencing the avenue of the baobabs which has been a dream of mine. The positive experience was made possible by how well Travelia Safari prepared us for the trip. Madagascar is really a unique country, and I really appreciate being given a heads up on what to expect. I highly recommend this company, and would not hesitate to book another trip through them again!

What our customers ask about Private Tours & Trips in Madagascar
When is the best time to take a Private tour in Madagascar?
Madagascar's private tours are most enjoyable from April to October in the dry season. The weather is pleasant with temperatures between 20-25°C making it ideal for exploring key destinations. Andasibe National Park offers excellent lemur spotting while Isalo National Park provides good hiking conditions. The coastal region of Nosy Be is perfect for whale watching from July to September. Visitors staying at the Radisson Blu & Spa in Antananarivo benefit from clear weather that's ideal for outdoor activities.
What's the typical accommodation standard on Private tours in Madagascar?
Private tours combine upscale hotels with distinctive eco-lodges across Madagascar. In the capital Antananarivo guests often stay at the Louvre Hotel & Spa or Radisson Blu & Spa. The Vakona Forest Lodge near Andasibe puts visitors close to wildlife viewing opportunities. Guest feedback consistently mentions the quality of amenities with one TourRadar traveler noting "The hotels were equipped with very advanced amenities. We had a comfortable rest and great breakfast at every location."
What unique experiences can I expect on a Private tour in Madagascar?
Private Madagascar tours let visitors get close to lemurs in Andasibe National Park explore the limestone maze of UNESCO-listed Tsingy de Bemaraha and watch sunsets at the Avenue of Baobabs. Accommodations include stays at Nature Lodge in Joffre Ville and Ravintsara Hotel in Nosy Be. As one TourRadar traveler described: "This was a great experience with close interaction with wild Lemurs at Lemur Island and jaw-dropping rock formations at Tsingy that you can hike through."
How much time should I allow for travel between destinations in Madagascar?
Madagascar's road conditions mean longer travel times between sites. The drive from Antananarivo to Andasibe takes 4 hours while Ranomafana to Isalo National Park requires 7-8 hours. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The roads are full of potholes so it takes quite a long time to get from one destination to the next." Private tours use comfortable vehicles and experienced drivers. Some longer routes like Antananarivo to Morondava are covered by hour-long domestic flights.
How far in advance should I book a Private Madagascar tour?
Booking 6-8 months ahead is recommended for Madagascar private tours particularly for peak season travel (July-September). This ensures spots at preferred places like the Grand Hotel Urban in Antananarivo or Andasibe Hotel. Booking data shows successful tours average 863 days from first inquiry to confirmation. Early planning is essential for seasonal activities like whale watching in Sainte Marie (July-September) or visiting Tsingy de Bemaraha (May-November).
