Luxury

They are not just luxury trips, they are… a luxury in travel. When we seek travel experiences that are unique and truly transformative in our lives, one of the best tools is the exclusivity offered by first-class service.

Engaging in unforgettable activities in the most spectacular locations, staying in the most unlikely places, or meeting the right people who will enrich our experience are special creations of our ‘Secrets by Indigo Be’ team.

Adventure

Reaching the most remote areas of the island requires a minimum of sacrifice, but the reward is always unforgettable. Exploring hidden treasures is the priority on our adventure trips.

Cross the island from west to east on a fascinating road trip, visit the last animist villages, travel through the eastern jungles on the last passenger train, navigate the waters of the Tsiribihina River, reach the summit of the tsingys or the crater of the Piton de la Fournaise volcano… Your adventure begins here.

Trekking

To go further, you have to go on foot. And often, seeing the world from above makes all the difference. Climbing mountains in the Andringitra or Marojejy ranges, living with animist tribes in Zafimaniry Country, exploring the lush Masoala forest, or penetrating the canyons of the unknown Makay massif are experiences that can only be experienced on foot.

Not to mention Reunion Island, the most trekking destination in the Indian Ocean: climb the Piton de Neiges, explore the Mafate cirque, or explore the Piton de la Fournaise volcano.

Ethnic

Now more than ever, the human factor determines our journey. A melting pot of ethnicities and cultures, the island of Madagascar allows us to meet more than 18 different ethnic groups with distinct racial origins. People of Indo-Malay origin, Bantu ethnic groups from Africa, Swahili navigators…

Although all our trips have a strong ethnic component, these routes will bring you closer to what truly matters: having unique and endearing encounters that will remain forever in our memories.

Comfort

Our comfort trips encompass the most classic routes or those with infrastructure that allows for a more comfortable trip without sacrificing access to the best national parks and reserves.

These trips offer a more thoughtful, special, and unique experience, tailored to our expectations. The customization of your trip will allow you to see places in a different way, more in line with your travel preferences and needs.

Wildlife

Madagascar is one of the 17 megadiverse countries on the planet. Over the last decade, scientists have discovered 615 new species. The island is home to 5% of the world’s flora and fauna. A rate of over 80% endemism (six species of baobabs, 113 species of lemurs, 1,200 species of orchids, etc.), combined with the diversity of existing habitats—tropical rainforest, mountains, savannah, wetlands, and dry forest—make Madagascar an exceptional destination for wildlife lovers.

Obviously, all our tours include visits to national parks, but we have some suggestions focused entirely on exploring our nature and biodiversity.

Beaches, Islands & Sailboats

The Indian Ocean boasts some of the best beaches on the planet. Madagascar, with the Mitsio and Radames archipelagos, comprised of paradisiacal islands like Nosy Iranja, Nosy Be, Nosy Sakatia, Nosy Tanikely, Nosy Mitsio, and Nosy Komba…which we’ll sail on a catamaran or traditional schooner; deserted beaches like Salary, Ambatomilo, Andavadoaka, Anakao, and Ambola… islands of pirates and corsairs like Sainte Marie and Masoala, refuges for whales and dolphins…

Mauritius, Rodrigues, Seychelles, and Reunion…turquoise waters and snowy sands that seem like something out of a dream.

Active travel

All trips to Madagascar are active because nature safaris are always carried out on foot, unlike the rest of the continent. But on our Active Travel trips, sports take center stage. Cycling, scuba diving, kitesurfing, surfing, canyoning, paragliding… Combining visits to certain areas with our favorite sport is the key element of this type of active travel.

Trekking trips are not included because we believe that hiking trips deserve a section of their own.
