TOUR DESCRIPTION:


Madagascar, often referred to as the “Land of Unique Biodiversity,” is a paradise for nature and adventure enthusiasts. With its stunning Indian Ocean coastline and diverse landscapes, Madagascar offers an unforgettable motorcycle tour experience. Winding through both asphalt and some good grave tracks surrounded by untouched wilderness, motorcyclists will find themselves in a true rider’s paradise. But that’s just the beginning! Exploring the coastal region, the mountains, each area with its own unique character, adds an extra layer of excitement to this journey. On this tour, ecologies and boutique hotels with good food add a touch of luxury to the experience.

In Madagascar, you’ll encounter lemurs, baobabs, rainforests, mountains, waterfalls, and rivers. There’s no room for boredom!  Baobab avenue, thermal springs, volcanic lakes, natural reserves, Itremo mountains, river crossings, sandy and technical trails are all along our route. After each day’s adventure, you’ll unwind in charming and comfortable hotels. Can you imagine a more beautiful motorcycle holiday?  With Motobirds, you’ll discover Madagascar “inside out,” navigating off-the-beaten-path locations. Join us for this new motorcycle adventure!

On this tour, you can choose to ride with the guide, or head yourself to the next hotel. Thanks to the GPS track, everyone can choose their own pace, get ahead, wander according to their photographic inspirations, or, of course, stay with friends. But while everyone is free to move forward following their own rhythm, no one is left on their own. The support car will always come last.
