Lemurs - Maybe not as impressive as gorillas and Orang-Utans for their sheer size and power, lemurs do have an edge and that is their cuddly appeal! Ranging in size from the tiny pygmy mouse lemur, which could sit in an egg cup, to the 7kg teddy like Indri, the lemur species cover a great diversity of different shapes, colours and sizes. Home to over a third of the world's primates the appeal of lemurs soon becomes obvious as with their soft brown fur, bright eyes and gloved hands they are one of the most bewitching primates in existence.

Found nowhere else in the world Madagascar is host to a wide variety of species of lemur with new ones being discovered the whole time! The different species of lemur are spread throughout a variety of parks and reserves on the island. The traveller can see a large selection of these throughout their safari in Madagascar however if one does have specific species that you would like to see this must be specified upon requesting an itinerary in order that we can tailor your Madagascar wildlife holiday suitably. Obviously some species of lemur are easier to spot than others!

For further information on which lemurs can be found in which parks please refer to the Main Attractions section or contact us to discuss this in person.

Beaches/Islands - Madagascar is encompassed by a variety of beautiful beaches and islands from the south west coastline of Ifaty to luxury islands such as Nosy Be, Ile Sainte Marie and Nosy Tsarabanjina, giving the traveller the perfect opportunity to break up their itinerary with some days of relaxation on the beach and maybe a bit of diving or even whale watching! The perfect end to your Madagascar holiday can be enjoyed at a number of stunning lodges including, Princess Bora Lodge and Anjajavy.
