In October 2024, our family of 6 discovered the wonders of Madagascar on our very first trip, carefully organized by Nofy travel tours. For two weeks, we traveled through fascinating places, from Tananarive to Anakao, via Antsirabe, Ranomafana and Isalo. Thanks to Tahina, our expert driver, and Naddy, our passionate guide, each step was an immersion in the culture and natural beauty of the south of the island. From the must-see national parks (Andasibe, Ranomafana, Isalo) to the artisan villages (Ambatolampy, Ambalavao), everything was designed to amaze us. The safety, flexibility and professionalism of the team allowed us to travel with complete peace of mind, even when faced with unforeseen events (plane delays, missing luggage). We particularly appreciated the availability and adaptability of our guides, who adjusted the program to our desires, making this trip as enriching as it was unforgettable. Thanks to the Nofy Travel Tours team and especially to Phieldine, our travel correspondent for this exceptional experience!

In early August, we took 7-day trip with . Their rate was much more affordable than other agencies Nofy Travel, but we still had a great time exploring the country and hitting all the highlights we wanted. What we were most excited about was the flora and fauna. We hit them in an excellent way. It is crucial to note that Madagascar is not very developed, so those traveling here will be the most adventurous travelers. That is why I believe the price difference is crucial. The basic accommodations have filled us with satisfaction and we have traveled many countries so far. Feel free to experiment and benefit from it. Nofy travel has perfectly met our expectations. A big thank you to the whole team!!
