Madagascar Explorer

Most of Madagascar's wildlife can be found nowhere else on Earth. Learn how tourism helps Madagascar's species continue to thrive, even after experiencing significant habitat loss.

The island of Madagascar, often called the Eighth Continent for its size and geographic isolation, is home to an extraordinary array of species—over 90% of which are found nowhere else. Join Expedition Leader Matt Meyer for an introduction to our adventures in this global biodiversity hotspot, including our new 8-day Madagascar Explorer. Learn about the wildlife we're likely to see (lemurs, chameleons, tropical birds and more), discover the diverse national parks we visit, and get a peek at our eco-friendly accommodations.
