One of the jewels of Madagascar, the Andasibe-Mantadia National Park, has become in recent years a must-see for all those who travel to the island.
Andasibe National Park consists of Mantadia Park (12,000 ha) and Analamazaotra Park (810 ha). The latter is home to the famous Indri-Indri, the largest primate in Madagascar and easily observed in this natural park. In addition to 11 species of lemurs such as the Rubriventer Lemur, the Hapalemur Griseus, the Varecia Variegata Lemur and the spectacular Propithecus Diadema. The park has a diversity of birds, reptiles and insects. The flora is characterized by luxuriant and tropical vegetation. Numerous ferns, sacred vines, orchids… Ideally located park, near Antananarivo, which allows us to combine our visit with the paradise island of Sainte Marie and the sighting of humpback whales in the main spot of the island which we will reach by regular flight or private plane.

Tips
All our departures called “PRIVATE” will have all the exclusive services, except in some transfers made by the hotel itself that will be in common with other clients.
The order of visits and excursions can be modified depending on local imperatives (air schedules, condition of tracks or roads, for example). If some visits and/or excursions could not be carried out for any reason beyond our control, we will try to replace them whenever possible.
Due to the high demand during Easter, Christmas and New Year and the months of August, September, October and November, we ask that you book as far in advance as possible as places are very limited.
CHARACTERISTICS OF OUR TRIPS
Our trips are designed from knowledge, we have been residents on the island for more than 18 years (2006-2024) and our team makes more than 17 annual surveys throughout the geography of the island, to verify on the ground the state of parks, tracks, hotels, novelties and discover new treasures that still, to this day, remain hidden in our island-continent and that for the moment we try to preserve until there is an environmental protection policy. Our update is practically daily.
Any circuit in Madagascar leaves room for the unexpected, hence we ask for your flexibility when facing the trip, as travelers and not as conventional tourists.
To participate in our trips, a minimum physical shape is necessary, otherwise you will not enjoy the parks, landscapes, or some of the animist villages furthest from the conventional routes.
Our adventure trips are not for all audiences, they are participatory trips, in which you will not be made to row or wash your cutlery, for this we employ 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 at odds 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, neither toilets nor showers) if right next door we have a minimally correct accommodation and from which our passage can benefit the local population. We always try to include the best available hotels, but on some occasions we are forced to use simple lodges because the location does not have more hotel infrastructure or because it is in an exceptional place that is well worth the stay.
Madagascar does not have a tourist infrastructure like neighboring countries in their safaris, but that gives it the charm of a virgin and uncrowded country (150,000 tourists a year). We ask our travelers for an open mind and great doses of patience. That way they will enjoy their trip much more.

Elisabeth Segui BAOBAB EXPEDITION
Isla única, sorprendente e inolvidable
Madagascar; suena a remoto, a película de dibujos y a animales imposibles. Es eso, y también un país-isla poco turístico que rezuma savia africana edulcorada con toques asiáticos.
Descender un río entre cañones de selva y dormir en sus playas protegidas de los cocodrilos; adentrarse en la selva y escuchar los sonidos de sus animales más característicos, los lémures; bucear entre peces tropicales con el sonido de fondo de las ballenas jorobadas; pasear al atardecer por una avenida plagada de baobabs gigantes; descubrir unas impresionantes formaciones rocosas con forma de miles de agujas; degustar su marisco aderezado con tintes de influencia francesa o, simplemente, pasear por una playa esperando la llegada de los pescadores. Todo eso es Madagascar.
Madagascar promete desconexión, aventura y exotismo…y con Indigo Be lo consigues!
Gracias por ser magníficos anfitriones de esa isla única, sorprendente e inolvidable.
