The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Hike Madagascar's alien-red labyrinth of eroded laterite pinnacles, then track ring-tailed lemurs through the forest. A geological wonder and wildlife encounter in one unmissable day.
Glide across the legendary Mer d'Émeraude, a turquoise lagoon ringed by mangroves and sandbanks, rated one of the world's most beautiful bays. Snorkel, swim, and savour the stillness.
Trek Madagascar's first national park — a lush volcanic massif cloaked in rainforest, threaded with waterfalls, and alive with chameleons, orchids, and crowned lemurs found nowhere else on Earth.
Sweep across three of the world's most scenic bays in a single day, ending beside a centuries-old giant baobab — a Madagascar icon — before a seafood lunch at Ramena beach.
Descend into Madagascar's most dramatic karst landscape: the white Tsingy limestone needles of Ankarana, a UNESCO-recognised reserve hiding cave systems, sacred crocodile lakes, and 11 species of lemur.
Explore the colourful Creole-French colonial streets of Antsiranana by private tuk-tuk, visit the centuries-old baobab grove, and lose yourself in the vibrant artisan market. Madagascar's living culture at its most authentic.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
