I did a 21 days herping tour with Sergio. We wanted to aim high and see as many species of amphibians and reptiles as possible, and ended up finding about 155 species (including 31 chameleon species). Sergio did his very best to assist us in this. He is a flexible, reliable, and gentle person, and always in a good mood. I could not have wished for a better guide to visit this life-long dream country. I have searched for amphibians and reptiles in 40 countries. Sergio is by far the best guide I have ever had.

I can highly recommend booking a tour with Segio. We travelled with him for 10 days with a group of 5 friends, who share a common passion: reptiles and amphibians. Sergio tailored the tour exactly according to our wishes, knew the best places for every species, and the best guides to help find them. He himself has super-human vision, and regularly spots chameleons from inside of the driving car! We ended up finding well over a 100 species of reptiles and amphibians, which is a great success and can only be achieved with meticulous planning, expertise, and experience. Sergio also made sure that we always have a comfortable and clean accommodation to relax and recharge our batteries between the long searches in the forest. He solved every little problem along the way with ease, and made us feel safe and in good hands all along the way. We will definitely return to Madagascar, and it will definitely be with Sergio! Misaotra for everything Sergio, stay excellent =)!

Together with my wife and three friends I did a 10 day tour with Sergio and it was absolutely fantastic! Sergio has great knowledge of the entire island and knows the best places to sleep, the nicest places to eat and where to go for certain specific animal species we wanted to see. He organized a fantastic tour where local transport, guides and porters were already waiting for us when we arrived and we never had to wait. He is very flexible, understanding and open-minded and has good contacts in every place. We could go into the forests from early morning to late at night. Sergio is always in a good mood, has unlimited energy and is always keen to explore. Moreover, he has the uncanny ability to spot chameleons from a driving car! Together with him we saw over a 100 species of amphibian and reptile in just 10 days, including some rarely seen chameleons, frogs and snakes. Thanks so much my friend and hopefully see you soon again!

Sergio is a very kind and flexible guide, who goes to great lengths to make the trip comfortable and get to great results. I highly recommend Nature Tour Madagascar to anyone who wants to visit Madagascar to enjoy its wildlife.

Amazing tour! Fantastic guide! You can book with Sergio and feel confident that you’ll have an adventure of a lifetime in Madagascar. I have truly never met anyone with a bigger passion for wildlife! Sergio is warm, kind, and super knowledgeable about Madagascar’s endemic animals and flora and fauna. I went on a 22-day trip with Sergio (our guide), Lalaina (our driver), and two close friends. Our priority was to see as many chameleon species as possible— a goal that we all felt we accomplished by the end of our travels!  Sergio has an amazing talent for spotting chameleons in the wild, finding the best local guides at each park who are enthusiastic about their work, and ensuring logistics run smoothly. Sergio curated an excellent selection of hotel accommodations, restaurants, and cultural activities that suited our needs. I wholeheartedly recommend that you visit Madagascar with Sergio as your guide.

Our 3-week tour of Madagascar with Sergio was incredible and exceeded all expectations. If you visit Madagascar, you MUST go with him. Sergio is warm, detail-oriented, and professional and is an excellent wildlife & nature guide. There’s no one else I can imagine having seen the country with, and we’re excited to visit again in the future with Sergio as our guide. Chameleons were the focus of our trip and we saw 20 species (over 100 individuals) - Sergio is not only knowledgeable, but he spots impossible to see chameleons everywhere we went. We also saw over 20 species of lemurs! Everything was planned out very thoughtfully, from our route (to the South to Andasibe, Ranomafana, Vohimana, then up to the North to Ankarafantsika, Ankarana, Antalaha, Daraina), the amount of time spent at each destination, to the strong local guides he selected. Our driver, Lalaina, was also great and very reliable and navigated us well through varying road conditions. Sergio was also flexible and we were able to adjust our itinerary as we went, and moved nights around when we found places we particularly loved. We ended up spending a few days in his hometown of Antalaha, which was a wonderful highlight (with amazing chameleons and wildlife)! Thank you for everything Sergio!!!! Until next time :)

Just back home from an amazing 3 weeks in Madagascar with Sergio Tour Guide. Sergio set up a programme and from start to finish, everything was so well organized that we could simply enjoy every moment. He arranged also a very comfortable car for the 3 weeks and our driver Fameno was very good, always ready for us and very safe driving. Sergio is very flexible and always knew how to adjust the program to our wishes, and he made sure we felt comfortable at all times. We loved the mix of breathtaking landscapes and unique animals in the National Parcs and as wildlife photographer I could always be at the best place to see the action. This trip gave us unforgettable memories, and we can honestly say that Sergio played a huge role in making it so special. If you’re planning to visit Madagascar, we can’t recommend Sergio Tour Guide enough. He turned a great trip into an unforgettable adventure! Many thanks Sergio,

We went on a 13-day tour of Madagascar in April 2025 and enjoyed this experience. Sergio was really good guide – friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. In every place we visited, he chose local guides with good knowledge of local nature. If you're planning a trip to Madagascar and your main focus is wildlife, we highly recommend traveling with Sergio. Driver was experienced – we always felt safe, even during long transfers.

We had an amazing time, and a fantastic guide. Sergio is the best we could have had!! Very knowledgeable about all the different animals of Madagascar. We were NOT disappointed. Saw lots of different species. Even more than we expected. We would be driving down the road going to our next location and he would spot a chameleon (exceptional eyesight)!! We would pull over for a photo op. I can’t thank him enough for taking such good care of us with every detail of our trip! Highly recommend Sergio!!!

Frequently Asked Qu     

estions:

How physically demanding are wildlife tours? Our Madagascar wildlife tours involve moderate hiking through rainforest terrain. Daily walks typically cover 3-6 kilometers with frequent stops for wildlife observation. However, trails can be muddy and uneven, especially during rainy season. Therefore, we recommend good hiking boots and reasonable fitness levels. Nevertheless, we adjust pace to accommodate all participants and take regular breaks. If you have specific mobility concerns, contact us to discuss customized itineraries.

What should I pack for wildlife tours? Essential items include lightweight, neutral-colored clothing (avoid bright colors that disturb wildlife), sturdy waterproof hiking boots, rain jacket, insect repellent, sunscreen, and hat. Furthermore, bring binoculars for bird watching and a camera with zoom lens for wildlife photography. Additionally, pack a small daypack, reusable water bottle, and headlamp for night walks. Our guides provide detailed packing lists upon booking.

How close can we get to lemurs and other wildlife? We maintain a respectful 7-meter minimum distance from all lemurs to protect their health and natural behavior. However, lemurs often approach closer out of curiosity, especially in habitats where they’re accustomed to human presence. Meanwhile, chameleons and reptiles can be observed more closely as they’re less sensitive to human presence. Our guides ensure all wildlife encounters follow ethical practices that prioritize animal welfare.

Peak Wildlife Season: April – November (Dry Season)

The dry season offers the best overall wildlife viewing conditions:

• December – May: Excellent weather, fewer tourists, active wildlife
• June – August: Peak season, cooler temperatures, best for fossa sightings
• September – November: Lemur mating season, baby animals appear, reptiles very active

Responsible Wildlife Viewing:

• Maintain 7-meter minimum distance from lemurs.
• strictly no feeding or touching animals in the parks and reserves.
• Quiet voices to minimize disturbance.
• Stay on marked trails to protect habitat.
