Professional Tour Operator, I recommend 100%

The agency provided me with full and detailed customized itinerary. I booked the tour many months in advance. And one week before my trip to Madagascar, they emailed me again all necessary documents related to my tour and asked if there is still anything they help me with. They really take care of their customers.

I will definitely consider using Tsiky Tour again next time I am back in Madagascar.
