 | Day 1 : Paris - Antananarivo Our
tea will offer you a warm welcome on your arrival at the airport of
Ivato. Schedule permitting, the details of the holiday will be
immediately described to you. If the plane arrives quite late in the
night, the briefing will be done the day after. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 2 : Antananarivo - Antsirabe We
will leave quite early for Antsirabe in order to have the time for some
stopovers all along the road. The inevitable stage is Ambatolampy,
known not only for its workshop of aluminium pots and kitchen utensils,
but also for its horse farming, which are among the ones still existing
in the Big Island. Then, arrival in Antsirabe, where the time seems to
be suspended on its buildings of a colonial style, which gives it a
particular charm. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 3 : Antsirabe - Ambositra - Ranomafana Between
Antsirabe and Ranomafana, there are 224 kilometres of magnificent
landscapes. It is impossible to remain indifferent when seeing
sculptures on wood and the items needed in daily activities, which are
made with an exceptional skill in the city of Ambositra. It’s the
occasion to take plenty of souvenirs there before continuing the journey
toward the National Park of Ranomafana. It’s a sempervirente forest to
the delight of the botanists but also for all those who like the nature. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 4 : Ranomafana - Fianarantsoa Before
continuing the journey for Fianarantsoa, we will have a moment of
relaxation in the hot waters of the thermal springs located in the park.
Then, heading for the capital of the Betsileo area. All along the road,
our look will be attracted by the terraced ricefields and the green
hills. Fianarantsoa has an exceptional historical heritage. To realize
that, it is necessary to go to the upper city constructed in the era of
Queen Ranavalona I. We will also see the Cathedral of Ambozontany. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 5 : Fianarantsoa - Ambalavao - Ranohira We
will leave Fianarantsoa behind us and continue on the RN7 road until we
reach Ambalavao. Being a small quiet city, Ambalavao is bustling during
the market day, when the inhabitants of the surrounding villages come
there to do their shopping, sell their pottery and their basketworks.
But Ambalavao is also one of the biggest zebu markets of Madagascar
where the Bara shepherds come to sell their cattle. After a walk in the
market, we will head for Ranohira, by following a road where the
granitic rocks offer spectacular forms to us. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
| Day 6 : Ranohira From
Ranohira, we will reach the National Park of Isalo. As soon as we come
to the entrance of the park, we will bury ourselves into another
universe. The Bara ethnic group bury their deceased there in the caves
located on the high ground. While the landscape seems arid, some green
oases, with an abundance of plants, appear in the midst of the canyons.
Lots of natural pools give us the opportunity to take a reviving bath
before conquering the arid, dry valleys. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 7 : Ranohira – Toliary The
landscape is changing progressively as we are journeying toward
Toliary. Euphorbiaceae and baobabs will appear in a dry savannah. The
road is sometimes overrun by herds of zebus. We will go across the
village of Ilakaka, the city of the sapphire. At the entrance of
Toliary, we will visit the Arboretum of Antsokay where we will discover
the rare endemic plants of this area and some others of Madagascar. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 8 : Toliary – Antananarivo Depending
on the departure hour of the flight which will take us back to
Antananarivo, we will have a stroll in the shell market and buy some
delicate necklaces and other craftworks which characterize Toliary. We
will also go to the town market to immerse ourselves into the
picturesque atmosphere which reigns there. Night and breakfast in the hotel |
 | Day 9 : Antananarivo – Paris In Antananarivo, a free time before the flight for Paris. However, if we suddenly decided so, we would do dome shopping in the market of the “Digue” or continue the walk to the upper city of Antananarivo. A way of prolonging the holiday a little bit. Transfer to the airport and return flight. End of our sevices |
