Madagascar split from the African continent millions of years ago. Since then its wildlife has evolved along its own, unique path. The result is a staggering collection of animals and plants, most of which can only be found on this vast, unspoilt island.
This special adventure offers the chance to see lemurs, birds and more amazing wildlife in their natural habitats. Perhaps Madagascar's most famous indigenous species are the various types of lemur and you will have the chance to come face-to-face with some of them, along with myriad birds and amazing flora.
