Madagascar Classic Camping

Mandrare River Camp, Madagascar, affords magnificent views to rugged mountains, the distant sounds of the singing local tribe as they fetch water from the river and the morning calls of the Coucal and Crested Coua, all on the bank of the Mandrare River.

With luxury en-suite tents which generously spread out in the shade of Tamarind trees, all with breathtaking views across the tranquil water to the sacred mountains beyond, the seclusion of the camp affords intimate access and insight to the spiny forest; home to an abundance of unique wildlife and the fascinating Antandroy tribe that inhabit this arid and otherworldly landscape.

Manafiafy Beach and Rainforest Lodge, Madagascar, enjoy dazzling surroundings with sparkling blue seas, verdant rainforests, abundant wildlife and views to the distant mountains. this small and intimate lodge offers you your choice of serenity or adventure.

Soak in the tranquil beauty of the natural surroundings from one of the luxury thatched bungalows. Nestled into a forest fringed cove, each bungalow offers a private terrace just inches from the sea.

Leave your stresses and strains behind and relax into the ebb and flow of the tide, the haggling sound of the local fishermen, the slow unchanging life of the village.

Across our two properties you can experience seven different ecosystems, encounter ten species of lemurs and learn about the various local cultures. Traveling between the two locations is easily arranged by road (6 hrs) or by light aircraft from Mandrare to Fort Dauphin (30 Mins) and a 2:30 hrs drive to Manafiafy.
