Itinerary Rates and Dates Extensions + Info

A trip designed for divers who are looking for much more than a simple dive: an exclusive experience in some of the most unspoiled and spectacular seabed in the north of Madagascar.

This route combines the authenticity and charm of Tsara Komba Lodge, facing the rich and biodiverse waters of the Nosy Be archipelago, with the absolute sophistication of Miavana by Time + Tide, on the remote private island of Nosy Ankao.

Throughout the trip, each dive reveals new scenery: vertiginous walls, coral canyons, gorgonian gardens and encounters with a surprisingly abundant and diverse marine fauna. From brightly colored reef fish to large pelagics, not to mention the possibility of spotting turtles, rays or even sharks at certain points.

An itinerary designed for demanding divers, who value the quality and variety of the dive sites as much as the comfort, exclusivity and impeccable service on the surface. Because on this trip, the underwater adventure is lived with the highest level of detail and distinction.

Departures are also organized to the Mitsio archipelago (Les Tétons, Les 4 Frères, Kassimo) and to Nosy Iranja.

During whale shark season (mid-October to mid-December), it is possible to go snorkeling or diving with these gentle giants, followed by dives in some of the best spots in the area. Discover the south of Nosy Komba, an area rich in invertebrates such as nudibranchs, sponges, soft corals, ghost pipefish and frogfish: a real paradise for macro diving!

  • Tips
All our departures called "PRIVATE", will have all the services exclusively, except for some transfers made by the hotel itself that will be in common with other clients. The order of the visits and excursions can be modified according to local constraints (air schedules, runway or road conditions, for example). If certain visits and/or excursions cannot be carried out for any reason beyond our control, we will try to substitute them whenever possible.   CHARACTERISTICS OF OUR TRIPS Our trips are designed from knowledge, we have been residents on the island for more than 20 years (2006-2026) and our team carries out more than 17 annual surveys throughout the geography of the island, to verify on the ground the state of parks, trails, hotels, new developments and discover new treasures that are still hidden in our island-continent and that for the moment we try to preserve until we have a policy of environmental protection. Our update is almost 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 forbidden 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 to it we have a minimally adequate 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 well 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.

A phenomenal trip
Just a few notes to thank you for your hard work and patience. It was a phenomenal trip, and I'm already itching to go back. I was delighted with the destination, the selection of activities, and the organization. Nomad Photo Expeditions Photography Group.
Harry Fisch ESSENCES OF THE SOUTH
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!!!
Montserrat Ros DISCOVER MADAGASCAR
Impeccable organization
Everything was excellent! I highly recommend both the country—with its contrasting landscapes and people—and the travel agency, which was impeccably organized! Thanks to Sylvia and Jaume for organizing everything, and of course to Luca and Mami for showing us around the whole country!
Glòria Ramon ESSENCES OF THE SOUTH
Professionals who love their work
Once again, to the entire team: after 25 years of traveling and having explored much of Africa, you can feel flattered because this is the first time we’ve met such a professional group of people who love their work and put so much passion into showcasing and sharing their country. Thank you, Sylvia, for your attention and for being there when we need you. Of course, we’ll see you on your next adventure with Reunionesa.
Clara Montes REMOTE RIVER EXPEDITION
A highly qualified team
A flawlessly organized company with values I share, and a highly professional team that is extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to the travelers. They respect the country, its people, and nature, and through their guidance, they make us fall in love with Madagascar.
Antonio Maria Following the Green Heart
The Baobab Expedition: Tough but Intense
Back home and trying to take in everything we’ve learned. Thank you, Silvia, for joining us on this fantastic trip—it’s been a privilege to have you as our guide. As you saw, the group hit it off right from the first day, and the route was amazing. We highly recommend the Baobab Expedition to all travelers—it’s tough but rewarding.
Sara BAOBAB EXPEDITION
A Wonderful Trip Through Madagascar
These excellent professionals helped us have a wonderful trip through Madagascar. Thank you so much, Sylvia, Jaume, Sergi, Santa! (a great local guide), and the entire staff. We’ll definitely be back.
Norberto Rosseti ESSENCES OF THE SOUTH
You can really tell how much Indigo Be cares about the country
Lupe Bote BAOBAB EXPEDITION
An authentic experience
I chose the "Baobab Expedition" itinerary with Indigo Be, and it was a truly unforgettable experience... Indigo Be is a travel agency run by young professionals who love Madagascar and know it inside and out, and who share their passion and enthusiasm for the country with travelers. Our guide, Jaume, has ensured that everything ran smoothly day after day, thanks to his efficiency and kindness. Thanks to the entire team of professionals at Indigo Be, and a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Jaume "for a job well done." A big hug!!!!!
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.
Antonia Rubio BAOBAB EXPEDITION
Experiences that will stay with me for the rest of my life
Amid shadowy jungles, deep rocky canyons, and red-clay moors, I encountered sights and experiences that will stay with me for the rest of my life. And what better way to explore them than with the help of local experts like Indigo Be.
