A trip to Madagascar is not complete without a visit to the northern part of the country.
This tour, which can last a variable number of days depending on your preferences, will take you to the mainland, the so-called "Great Land."
Here, you can explore the Ankarana National Park and admire the sunset over the canyons of the Red Tsingy, a unique rock formation in the world.

THE NORTH TOURS ARE CUSTOMIZABLE IN TERMS OF BOTH DURATION AND THE CHOICE OF SITES TO VISIT
On average, the cost per person for a full day is 155€ (minimum 2 people); of course, in one day, the tour on the Great Land cannot have the characteristics mentioned above but will focus on visiting cacao plantations and a few other things; it's nice, but a bit rushed.
