Madagascar

@maantigo 's Top Tips

"•Be flexible. Rule #1 - “Mora, mora” means to go with the flow and don’t sweat the small stuff. •Cash is king here - have it on hand. •Respect local “Fady” or taboos. "

What do you love most about Madagascar?

"The wildlife is incredible - the chameleons, lemurs and fossa - but even the insects like the giraffe beetles or hissing cockroaches are unforgettable. "

@maantigo 's Top Tips

"Patience, with a dose of flexibility and a sense of adventure, will help you travel from one place to the other - whether it be by “taxi brousse” or flying with “Air Mad” "

What do you love most about Madagascar?

"You’re spoilt for choice if you like stunning beaches. Nosy Iranja, île aux Nattes and Nosy Boraha certainly caught my eye. Turquoise water & powder white sand soothe the soul and nourish the spirit "

What do you love most about Madagascar?

"Drive along RN7 & you’ll get to see a microcosm of Malagasy life. Outside of the big cities, the road is empty - except for the occasional ox and cart. You’ll pass some beautiful villages and scenery. "

What do you love most about Masai Mara National Reserve?

"No game drive is ever the same! Each time you will have a totally different experience! The ecosystem in Masai Mara is breathtaking and you have the chance to spot the Big 5!"

A 'MUST' whilst you're there?

"Visit a Masai cultural village to learn about their way of life, take a walk along the Mara river and cross the bridge to have one foot in Kenya and one foot in Tanzania! Game drives are my favourite."

Favourite time of year to visit Masai Mara National Reserve

"I often visit in January and February when the parks are quieter and the rains bring out a lot of different experiences. July-September is the best time to visit for the great wildebeest migration!"

Benefits of a tour guide for Masai Mara National Reserve

"Masai Mara is so vast and the guides know the roads like the back of their hand. Their radio systems help each other to find great sightings for guests. A guide will give you the best experience."

What can you see in Masai Mara?

"The Big 5! lions, leopards, buffalos, elephants and rhinos. As well as cheetahs, hippos, giraffes, antelopes, zebras and so much more. "

What do you love most about Niger?

"Electric atmosphere 24/7 - male “contestants” sing and dance, complete with “costume change” to woo potential female suitors day and night. 100% unique experience "
