Some things to note

Luggage Information

Please note:

• This tour is best suited for adventurous travellers who are in good physical condition as there are some challenging days with extended periods of walking across uneven, dusty and rocky ground, in areas of high altitude and/or heat and humidity. This is particularly on days 3, 6 and 8 but may also occur on other days.
• Poor road conditions are common in Madagascar, with potholes, cracks, rough or uneven surfaces. Some roads are unsealed and may lack drainage during rainy periods. This is particular on days 2 and 7 but may also occur on other days.
• Additionally, please keep in mind that the standards and accommodation may not always match those to which you are accustomed. To fully enjoy this journey flexibility, a positive attitude, and a willingness to embrace the adventure is essential.
• We don’t want you to miss out on any aspect of your small group tour. To ensure that you don’t, we recommend you arrive at your starting destination by 4.00PM in order to take part in your welcome dinner.
• Return international airfares have not been included on this tour. Please speak to our friendly consultants if you would like assistance booking your international flights.
