We booked a car with a driver through Visit Mada tours for a 6-day drive from Tana to Tulear. We had an amazing trip in Madagascar and our driver, Luva, had a great deal to do with it. We do not speak French, so having an English-speaking driver was a huge help. In fact, he was more than a driver and helped us out a lot; finding english-speaking guides for national parks, giving advice on getting the best deals, telling us about Malagasy culture and customs... He was always on time and always ready to help. We were initially going to book a tour with another agency, but found them too expensive and not accomodating (e.g. the route is not possible, you can’t stay at budget hotels, etc). When we asked Benjamin about the same route, he said "anything’s possible". We were very glad we booked a car with a driver, as we had more flexibility. I would recommend booking with Benjamin’s company if you are thinking of driving around Madagascar (ask for Luva to be your driver, if possible). Thank you Benjamin and Luva for helping make our holiday amazing!

Dear Benjamin, Sorry its taken so long for me to write to you, we have had problems with our internet for 4 months! We did the river trip by dugout canoe in Aug/Sept 2007 and just wanted to say what a fantastic time we had!. It was such a peaceful and beautiful trip and exceeded all our expectations. The canoe was very comfortable and the food which prepared for us each day was delicious, we were particularly impressed with his standards of hygiene and cleanliness. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your company to anyone else visiting Madagascar, and we’d encourage anyone to visit Madagascar soon! Your organisation, planning and your communications before our trip all showed a dedication to customer service which is rare. So thankyou again, it was a very memorable honeymoon!

I travelled with Benjamin’s company in January, 2008, for five days. My tour guide, Andri and driver, Charles were excellent. Andri knew so much and could share part of his country with me and I felt very safe with Charles’driving. My trip was the East 3 day Indri tour to Andisibe and an extra day in Antananrivo. I thoroughly enjoyed driving through the countryside and learning so much from Andri about the Malagasy way of life.Everything was well planned and I saw so much in a very short time. I was initially a little worried about booking a trip over the internet as I was a woman travelling alone but with my experiences I would recommend this company. The creatures special to Madagascar were amazing - from tiny frogs to enormous moths, snakes, chameleons and of course the lemur and indri. A night time walk and a five hour walk in the forest for one whole morning were highlights - actually, there were many highlights, too many to mention. The airline lost my pack so I had no luggage for my time there. Andri took charge at the airport and dealt with the form filling and next morning I was taken to a shopping centre to get essentials. Benjamin and Andri both contacted the airport later,( I don’t speak French) on my behalf, to try to find my pack. Thank you all so much for a wonderful holiday.

Ich habe vom 7. November bis 2. Dezember 2004 Urlaub auf Madagaskar gemacht. Obwohl ich allein reiste und kein Franz�sisch spreche, werde ich diese wunderbare Reise nie vergessen. Benjamin�s Organisation war (f�r Madagaskar unglaublich) p�nktlich und der Service erstklassig... Dank Benjamin habe ich Madagaskar kennen - und lieben gelernt; deshalb w�rde ich jederzeit wieder eine Tour mit Ihm (oder einem seiner zuverl�ssigen Guides) unternehmen. Sehr empfehlenswert! Ganz besonders die Tsiribihina-Flu�fahrt!

Benjamin; I want to say thank you very much for providing Andrea and I with excellent drivers and guides in Madagascar. We had a wonderful time. I hope that if fortune allows we will one day re-visit Madagascar, and when we do we will definitely ask that you provide us with drivers to get us to where we want to go. It was a very fortunate thing to have met you, as Andrea and I did not know how we could afford to do all that we wanted to do with what little money we had available. Travelling to Madagascar is not cheap, and we are not rich people, as being able to meet someone like yourself who provided us with rates so well below what other tour groups wanted us to pay was very fortunate for us. Every night your name comes up in coversation and we are very grateful to you for helping make our Madagascar vacation such a wonderful one. When we were in Diego we met two people and we were able to encourage them to use your services in Andasibe. We felt very good about that. We hope they had a wonderful time as well. Sincerely, Marcus Allison
