Amazing 10-day solo tour :)

I did a 10-day tour with I Travel 2 Madagascar and loved every bit of it! Being a student my budget was fixed, but they made sure everything (even flight!) was included and there were no surprises. The travel by car was very comfortable and went smoothly (as far as the streets of Madagascar allow it :D ) I had a great experience, everything was planned out perfectly while still allowing some flexibility and this was very comfortable. Because it was low season I had to travel alone, but they made sure I always felt safe and never lonely! Everyone was very respectful, but also fun and we had great times together. I could tell Zo has lots of experience as a tour guide and he explained lots of interesting flora & fauna, but also culture and life in general in Madagascar. He made sure I didn't miss anything! The local guides were also very nice and informative. All of the hotels were clean and comfortable, some more luxurious than others but all great and they had everything I needed! Overall Lova and Zo made me feel very welcomed, well taken care of and I could not have imagined a better trip. They are amazing and honest people and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

A local agency with a very professional and motivated team.

We had a great tour and time with Lova and her team. We are last minute people, however organizing the tour was very easy as Lova was extremely reactive on WhatsApp and remained always very flexible to adapt to our wishes and taste. Beyond incredible lemurs and baobabs, Lova also provided a lot of insights and tips into Malagasy culture and traditions, while making sure everything worked out as planned and always on time. Roads in the country are complicated, but the slow pace gives you time to enjoy its spectacular landscapes. Travelling in Madagascar requires you to remain open minded, flexible and relaxed, let time and plans just flow. And I Travel 2 Madagascar will make sure you enjoy its people and nature to the fullest. Thanks Lova for making it so easy and enjoyable for us.

A professional, informative tour operator offering good value for money

I did a 15 day solo trip with Itravel2madagascar,I visited Antananarivo, Morondava,Alley of baobabs, Kirindy forest, Tsingy de bemaraha, Ranomofana and Andisabe. This country is unique and extraordinary,The fauna and flora is outstanding,from the Verraux sifaka and baobab trees in the west to the Indri lemur and Travellers tree in the east,the different chameleons and geckos,plus colourful boa snakes. The journey between the main destinations is also entertaining,with interesting and colourful sights. A lot of side shows were organised by the guides. My guides,Lova,Zo and Kiady were friendly and informative,Their communication was very good.I learnt a lot about the people of the country and their particular customs, according to the regions. My drivers,Solo,Sasa and Fano were superb, considering the road conditions.I always felt safe. The field guides were also very good.I learnt a lot about the fauna and flora. The hotels were all very good and all have swimming pools.The food is very good and there are road side restaurants that serve tasty,filling food at a very good price. Overall,it was a fantastic tour and I would highly recommend Itravel2madagascar.Book your tour.

Excellent service with lots of smiles at a very fair price

We recently spent 9 days in Madagascar with a private tour organized by “I Travel 2 Madagascar”. The tour was very well organized and coordinated by Lova, the head of this tour company, and her staff. Lova made sure that we got to see as many highlights as possible in our short time there. She helped us choose which sights were the most important to see and whether to drive to save some money and or to fly to not save some time. Communication before and during the tour was very responsive. Everyone we met in the company was always friendly and helpful. They were always on time or early. The value for money was excellent. We had self-booked everything on the African continent and the cost was similar to self-booking, but the experience was so much easier and better! (But please remember to add on the cost of tips for the guide, driver and local guides.) The sights were all wonderful!! (I would recommend at least 12 to 14 days in Madagascar to see more of the sights with less rushing. Three weeks would be better.) I wish we had more time because the wildlife (like all the different types of the lemurs) and the landscape were unique. The wildlife parks that they chose for us were excellent for learning about, observing and even interacting with wildlife. I had both chameleons and lemurs climbing on me! The guides and drivers were excellent and all the hotels were up to our western standards, being clean, air-conditioned and with private bathrooms. In summary, I highly recommend “I Travel to Madagascar” tour company. They gave us an excellent experience in their country and did it at a very fair budget price. I will definitely travel with them again if I ever get to go back.
