Madagascar was amazing! Such a great country to visit where one moment you're in the mountains, the next on a beach or a bustling city or in the rainforest searching for a wide range of wildlife.

Armand is the best tour leader we've ever had. The Lost Continent itinerary is very good, and Armand did an excellent job of keeping us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. He answered all of our questions and taught us many things about Madagascar. I cannot say enough about the quality of his work and his obvious enjoyment of his job. He made a good experience great!

I thought it might be useful to give a little more info about the walking on this trip as I was very concerned I had bitten off more than I could chew.
I am nearly 73, fit , for my age, woman. Used to walking but I live in Essex so am not used to hills!
I have walked in Vietnam and Georgia in the past 18 months however this trip was much more of a challenge because of altitude and heat. I was the oldest in the group of 11 with the youngest at 22(!)
Whilst three of the group reached the peak a good hour ahead and two turned back the rest of us all succeeded. It was challenging however if I can do it others can!! Very tough on knees and my advice is to get your cardio up to scratch and go for it!
Overall a fantastic trip with excellent walking, very basic camping, great food and Hery a wonderful, caring guide.
