Set adrift in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Africa, Madagascar is a world apart — literally. The best places to visit on Madagascar offer a mix of dramatic landscapes, rare wildlife, and rich cultural traditions. Around 90% of its plant and animal species, including the famous lemurs, exist nowhere else on Earth. From the jagged limestone peaks of Tsingy de Bemaraha to the serene beaches of Nosy Be, Madagascar is a land of extremes, where ancient baobab trees line dusty tracks and dense rainforests echo with the calls of unseen creatures.
