Fabulous Family Fun In Madagascar

Tailor Made Sample Itinerary No.1

Madagascar Family Wildlife TourThis itinerary has been carefully designed to appeal to cost-conscious families wishing to experience a good variety of habitats and wildlife, then spend time by the beach snorkelling, diving or simply relaxing. We have chosen rustic yet well-run establishments, beginning with a rainforest lodge where you will meet the largest lemur (indri), colourful chameleons and other strange creatures. Next comes the eerie spiny forest of the dry south for close lemur encounters. Finally, the tropical isle of Nosy Be beckons, with its beaches and colourful coral reefs. A natural family combination.

Important Notes

IMPORTANT NOTE (1): Despite recent improvements, Madagascar still has some accommodation of a low standard, and a poor infrastructure including unreliable domestic flights and communications, and rough roads.  Although we try to choose the best areas for families, many are isolated and far from medical and other services. Trails can be strenuous, campsites and park huts basic.  Bookings are only accepted if the client accepts Reef and Rainforest Tours has done everything in its power to ensure there are no difficulties, but has limited control over standards of equipment, availability of accommodation and other services, airline and hotel reservation policies, flight schedule changes or breakdowns in communications.


IMPORTANT NOTE (2): Each location generally has limited satisfactory hotels, and international and domestic flights often fill early. Because increases in hotel beds and flight seats have not kept up with visitor numbers, early booking for tailor-made tours is advisable to secure desired itineraries, particularly during high season (from late May to mid November). Some waitlisted nights are to be expected if booking less than 18 months in advance. Waitlists usually clear prior to departure.  We do our utmost to secure accommodation specified in your itinerary, but alternative accommodation will be offered and must be accepted by you in the unlikely event  waitlisted nights do not clear. Your booking is conditional on your understanding and acceptance of this situation.
