Madagascar in 12 days: lemurs, baobabs and the Tsingy
Antananarivo → Andasibe → Morondava → Tsingy
An island that broke away from Africa 160 million years ago and evolved on its own: lemurs that exist nowhere else, a limestone forest of stone needles, and an avenue of baobabs at sunset — with the honest version of the roads, which are the single biggest thing to plan around.
