Madagascar Unique Discovery Tours

Sariaka is a Special Guide My wife and I had already been in Madagascar for 26 days. When you initially enter the country US citizens are only allowed a 30 Day Visa. We wanted to stay more than 60 days. Our original Tour company could not help us. So at the end of our 23 day tour our Tour Company introduced us to a "Local" Guide. Enter Sariaka, Madagascar Unique Tours. We had only 4 days to get a visa extension. We learned that getting an extension is not an easy task especially if you neither read, write or speak Malagasy or French. She spent an entire day taking us from one office to another filling out paperwork and negotiating with Immigration officers. We would never have been able to negotiate the paper, pen and people bureaucracy. NO Technology. She did it. We are not your usual travelers as we like to be flexible and make specific plans only a week to two out. With an extra 60 days Sariaka was a wealth of information and contacts. With her guidance we were able to put together an especially memorable 48 more days traveling Madagascar with our own driver and car for 15 days included. Ask her about Montasoa and Nosy Soa Park!!

My husband and I have used MUDT to arrange four of our trips to Madagascar, as well as a week-long component of our 2023 study abroad course. Whether sending us to remote sites like fishing village (Andavadoaka) and the home of the reed lemur (Lac Alaotra), or more highly touristed areas like Ranomafana and Andasibe-Mantadia National Parks, MUDT has excelled in arranging comfortable housing, reliable transportation, and knowledgeable guides. By having connections with an extensive array of parks, reserves, and non-governmental agencies, MUDT can develop unique cultural and wildlife programming to suit any interest, and is able to arrange lodging at any level, from basic to posh. For our study abroad course, MUDT went above and beyond to develop programming that was of interest to our major-diverse group of students. We highly recommend MUDT for your trip to Madagascar.

These are the trips that you arranged for us:
- 2019 – Palmariam and Lac Alaotra
- June 2022 – Tana, Ranomafana, RN7, Ifaty/Toliara, Andasibe
- Dec 2022 – Palmarium, Ifaty/Toliara, Andava, Andasibe, Tamatave
- June 2023 – Andava
- Study abroad – First 2 days in Tana, Ifaty/Toliara, Andava

Le chauffeur Jocelyn était super sympa, c’était très bien organisé. L’hôtel était chouette, très beau dans un cadre de verdure fort sympathique. Toutes les excursions ont été comprises et ça c’était très bien. Par ailleurs, on a pu vraiment tout faire malgré la météo, donc un très grand grand merci Sariaka à toi et à ta société !
