VAKONA FOREST LODGE, ANDASIBE

BUILT IN TRADITIONAL MALAGASY STYLE

Stay in clear mountain air, surrounded by the treetops of an ancient forest. And share your holiday with shining-eyed indri.

You sit out on the veranda at Vakona Forest Lodge, a glass of wine in hand, and slowly you become aware of a strange sound.

Vakona Forest Lodge, Andasibe

It’s not raucous enough to be lemurs…then you realise you’re listening to a myriad of forest frogs.

You can expect this sort of experience at the lodge – it’s situated high on a hillside that drops down to a stunning lake. In fact, the lodge stands in water, on stilts, and is surrounded by unspoiled mountain rainforest. The perfect place to experience all manner of wildlife and see the indri; largest of all Madagascar’s famous lemurs.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”
Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.

“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”
Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough
