I booked a solo trip with Tony, we did a sort of on the fly trip, with a very rough itinerary that we could change on route if we pleased. It went great Tony was very flexible and was able to solve issues quickly to keep everything going smoothly! I just noticed someone give Tony a bad review saying that he smoked, drank alot, and wanted extra money. I never experience any of that, Tony was very respectful and whenever I wanted coffee and fruit, he paid for it and never asked for any extra money. I even did extra activities on top of the planned itinerary and he was able to set it up no problem. If I ever go back to Madagascar it will be with my bro Tony.

It was an amazing experience to see lemurs. It is worth to go and spend all your day. The dancing lemurs were my favourite.

This week-long itinerary takes you along the West Coast of Madagascar between the coastal town of Morondava and the Tsingy of Bemaraha. Along the canal of Mozambique flow powerful rivers, the Tsiribihina, the Manambolo, coming from the Highlands. They dug wide grooves that cut through huge limestone plateaus, the Tsingys. In this beautiful and wide peneplain, the baobab is king, he punctuates the landscape with his slender and massive presence and the path of the Baobabs is an excellent representation of it. Our chaotic trail sneaks in the middle of this tree-covered Savannah, the red ribbon of laterite is simply cut by the two ferries to cross the rivers

My guide Edilson, was good. He knows the history of the places we visited, but the structure of the tour and service is way too low for this price. You can get a Ballon ride in Bagan for US$300! So, the mean of transportation is tuk-tuk, which is a surprise because it is not mentioned in the description. Of course, using slow transportation means you cannot quickly reach different places. I did not get bottled water, although it is the tour description. I tried exactly three exotic fruits in the market. Better do not ask about hygene! I got a lunch (though tasty!) in a very mediockre lunch place. I visited Fortress, one Art exhibition, park, an inyard of museum and I saw from a distance two churches ,and visited a handicraft market and French Culture center. In comparison: a guided walking tour (3 hours) in Bruklyn to visit around 60+ murals costed US$20. A walking tour in Kyiv (3,5 hours) to see architecture pearls costed US$20 per person.

Jeanbe tour surprised me with excellent organization, flexibility and made for me one unforgettable experience. We travelled with taxi brusse and four wells jeep.Starting from the capital we visited Antsirabe, Miandrivazo,Morondava, Bekopaka,Tsingy and back to Morondava. Traveling like this, you can see the villages, the houses, the fields, the children who wave their hand at the road, small and big markets. The people are very friendly and smiling.The weather is hot and dry in October.Be ready for an endless each-minute adventure with many surprises.As you travel through the day, you can see people's daily routine, their habits and customs, sometimes their ceremonies are they a joyous or sad occasion and their amazing markets.The Jeanbe’s local friends cooked homemade food for us.It is very tasty. I was enjoying the Malagazy national home-cooked food but also to see their homes from within. Back to Morondava we saw the Sacred Baobab, Baobabs in love. Before sunset, we reached the Baobab Alley.And the magical moment of sunset between the baobabs.This view must be seen.It charms you.
