Luxury Madagascar Holidays
Why book your luxury Madagascar holiday with us
A luxury Madagascar holiday with cazenove+loyd sets the stage for an entirely different type of safari: lemurs leap through the rainforest canopy year-round, while humpback whales breach offshore between June and September.
Our Destination Expert, Melissa, recommends the tropical island of Sainte Marie, which offers turquoise waters, exceptional snorkelling and a slower pace of life. Her favourite place to stay is Voaara, where buttermilk-hued bungalows sit within one of the most biodiverse landscapes on earth.
Throughout your journey in Madagascar, we can arrange expert naturalists to guide you, encounters with endemic species and experiences tailored to your interests – from exploring the island’s unique wildlife to spending time with a local conservationist and learning about their efforts to protect it.
Start planning your tailor-made Madagascar adventure and discover one of the world’s most immersive travel destinations, with the insight of experts who know it firsthand.
Our Destination Expert’s top tip
Madagascar has really opened up in recent years, gone is the necessity of long drives on bumping roads, and in are charter flights making so much more of the country accessible.
Our favourite places to stay in Madagascar
Hotels in Madagascar are often quite spectacular, especially on the northern coast. However, in some areas, accommodation is more on the “simple” side, where location rules above all else. We will always choose the best and make sure you know exactly where you may need to be prepared for something more rustic.

What our clients say
My trip to Madagascar, a place I had dreamt of visiting as a child was organised to perfection. I saw indris, ring-tailed lemurs, dancing sifakas, a pygmy lemur curled in a tree, rocky sandstone escarpments, primeval and spiny forests alongside pristine beaches. The diversity was incredible and I can never thank cazenove+loyd enough for arranging this breathtaking experience.
