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 gravel mountain trails 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.

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.
