One of the most inspiring voyages to celebrate a honeymoon. A voyage designed for those who wish to begin their new story by exploring some of the most fascinating landscapes of the Indian Ocean, combining the untamed nature of Madagascar with the absolute serenity of the Seychelles.
The route travels through the south and west of the big red island, discovering some of its most emblematic national parks and natural scenery of extraordinary beauty. Throughout the trip we have selected the most charming and characterful accommodations in Madagascar, always respecting the authentic essence of a destination where luxury is experienced in a different way: more intimate, more natural and deeply linked to the territory.
The itinerary takes us through five of the country's most fascinating national parks and reserves. From the iconic Avenue of the Baobabs, one of Africa's most photogenic landscapes, the journey slowly descends south through colonial towns such as Antsirabe, farmland dotted with rice paddies and the World Heritage-listed rainforests of Ranomafana National Park. Further on, the Anja Reserve offers a close encounter with the charismatic ring-tailed lemurs before entering the foothills of the Isalo massif and discovering the unique baobab forest of Reniala, where nature reveals its most sculptural side.
As a finale, the journey continues in the neighboring Seychelles, where the rhythm is transformed and the Indian Ocean becomes the protagonist. We have carefully selected a collection of hotels in Mahé that we know personally, chosen for their discreet elegance, their privileged location and the quality of their services. A perfect refuge to prolong the magic of the trip and enjoy a few days of absolute relaxation in front of the sea.
For those who wish to extend this experience, there is the possibility of adding additional nights or discovering other islands of the archipelago, each with its own character and beauty.

CHARACTERISTICS OF OUR TRIPS
Our trips are designed from knowledge; we have been residents on the island for more than 19 years (2006-2025), and our team conducts more than 17 annual surveys throughout the island's geography to verify the condition of parks, tracks, hotels, and new developments on the ground and discover new treasures that, even today, remain hidden in our island-continent and that we are currently trying to preserve until an environmental protection policy is available. Our updates are practically daily.
Any tour in Madagascar leaves room for the unexpected, hence we ask for your flexibility in approaching the trip as travelers and not as conventional tourists.
To participate in our trips, a minimum level of physical fitness is required, otherwise you will not be able to enjoy the parks, landscapes, or some of the animist villages farther away from the conventional routes.
Our adventure trips are not for everyone, they are participatory trips, in which you will not be made to row or wash your cutlery, for this we give employment to the local population, however, we want your passage through the island to cause the least possible impact, neither environmental nor social, that is where we ask for your collaboration.
The hotels are varied, from some 5* to simple lodges, depending on the hotel infrastructure. Adventure is not incompatible with comfort, we will never camp (free camping is prohibited in Madagascar, it is only possible in "authorized" places although they do not have any infrastructure similar to a campsite, no toilets or showers) if right next door we have a minimally correct accommodation and that our passage can benefit the local population. We always try to include the best hotels available, but sometimes we are forced to use simple lodges because the location does not have more hotel infrastructure or because it is located in an exceptional place that deserves the stay.
Madagascar does not have a tourist infrastructure like neighboring countries in their safaris, but that gives it the charm of an unspoiled and uncrowded country (150,000 tourists per year). We ask for an open spirit and large doses of patience to our travelers. That way you will enjoy your trip much more.

An Extraordinary Journey
I highly recommend it—the service is direct, clear, and friendly. Sylvia, Jaume, and Sergi are lovely.
Small, well-organized groups.
Santa, our guide, is the best.
And Madagascar—with its lemurs, its baobabs, its people, and its landscapes—stole my heart; I don't know which one to choose.
A dream come true!!
We're really looking forward to going back and exploring more parts of the island. And we'll definitely be doing it with Indigo Be!!!

Elisabeth Segui BAOBAB EXPEDITION
A unique, surprising, and unforgettable island
Madagascar—it sounds like a faraway place, an animated movie, and impossible animals. It’s all that, and also a little-visited island nation that exudes African spirit, softened by Asian influences.
Canoe down a river through jungle canyons and sleep on its beaches, safe from crocodiles; venture deep into the jungle and listen to the sounds of its most distinctive animals, the lemurs; dive among tropical fish with the sound of humpback whales in the background; strolling at sunset along an avenue lined with giant baobabs; discovering breathtaking rock formations shaped like thousands of needles; savoring seafood seasoned with a touch of French influence; or simply strolling along a beach, waiting for the fishermen to return. All of that is Madagascar.
Madagascar promises a break from it all, adventure, and exoticism... and with Indigo Be, you can have it all!
Thank you for being such wonderful hosts on this unique, amazing, and unforgettable island.
