Day 1
After a hearty breakfast at 8:00 am, we’ll pick you up from your hotel and head south. As we drive, you’ll see the savanna stretch out before you, dotted with majestic baobab trees, winding rivers, and the lively villages of the Sakalava people, all framed by beautiful beach views. After about four hours, we’ll arrive in Belo, where you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch featuring fresh fish and local specialties. Then, we’ll visit a nearby village to see the handmade Botry boats crafted by skilled locals. The rest of the day is yours to relax and enjoy the atmosphere at your own pace.

Today, we’ll head out by motorboat to the beautiful island of Andravona, an ideal spot for swimming, snorkeling, and fishing. As you enjoy the crystal-clear waters, the crew will prepare a delicious picnic lunch with fresh seafood and local vegetables. In the afternoon, we’ll return to Belo sur Mer, watching for sea birds and, if you’re visiting between June and September, playful dolphins.

5.0/5From start to finish, this tour was an unforgettable experience. When enquiring about planning this trip ,Tony was very responsive, informative and. answered all our questions as we went along .When my suitcase didn't arrive in Madagascar Tony sorted it for me and negotiated with the airline on my behalf, going above and beyond and was very much appreciated Our guides were all knowledgeable, friendly, and punctual and clearly passionate about what they do, which made the whole trip both fun and informative. The itinerary was perfectly balanced — we saw all the major highlights without ever feeling rushed, and there were plenty of opportunities to take photos, ask questions, and just soak up the atmosphere. The transportation was comfortable, everything ran smoothly and on time, and as it was a private tour we were able to spend as little or as much time at each place as we chose. Every stop had something unique to offer, and the insider stories and local tips really brought the culture to life. It’s rare to find a tour that gets every detail right, but this one truly did, guides were on time , transfers were smooth, everything was flexible to our wishes. Hugh thanks to Tony, Sidney, Princee and Nico. The drivers were all awesome and we always felt safe despite some roads been very African massage- bumpy ! We left with amazing memories, beautiful photos, and a much deeper appreciation for the country. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable experience. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

I highly recommend the Friendly Tour Guide Mada. The best cars I have seen on Madagascar, very clean, comfortable and modern. Drivers and tour guide are professionals! Very polite and helpful. Except 3 spots written in the description, expect visit to a very nice European restaurant with an amazing view! We are very happy, that we found this reliable tour operator. Thank you for everything ☺️

I went on a day trip with Tony and a colleague, and it was a fantastic experience to escape Tana after a long week of work. Tony is a friendly and knowledgeable guide. I also did the nightlight tour which was a lot of fun!
