The "Cycle Madagascar" tour starts from and ends in Antananarivo. It is a bicycle tour that takes 14 days taking you through Ifaty Beach, Ampefy, Isalo National Park and 7 other destinations in Madagascar. "Cycle Madagascar" is a guided small group tour that includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.

Madagascar, the fourth-largest island in the world, offers a cycling adventure like no other. We journey on largely quiet roads through a landscape of dramatic highland plains, unique rock formations and natural swimming pools. We pause to visit the lush chain of rainforest in Ranomafana National Park with deep canyons and huge waterfalls. Apart from natural treasures, the nation is also rich in culture and many groups with fascinating traditions contribute to the melting pot that is Madagascar. Our cycling is rewarded by a day to relax on the idyllic white-sand beach of Ifaty, which is scattered with palms and protected by an offshore coral reef.
