Following that, you'll be escorted to your conveniently located accommodation near the airport. The remainder of the day is yours to explore and enjoy at your leisure.
Following breakfast, your journey to Ankafobe will commence. Located in the Analamanga region, it is situated 132 km away from the capital city. Along the way, a stop at Ambohimanarina is essential to explore the clay coal stove workshop and witness the art of stove manufacturing.
This workshop serves as the primary source of income for the village residents and has become an integral aspect of their cultural heritage. The journey will then lead you on a captivating walk through the forest, where you will encounter the project's nursery and witness its diverse wildlife.
In this habitat, you may observe brown lemurs, 38 species of birds, 5 species of reptiles, 14 species of amphibians, and three mammal species. Finally, you will return to the capital city by car.
After indulging in a hearty breakfast, venture towards the captivating highlands adorned with rice terraces as you journey to Antsirabe. The picturesque villages that grace your three-hour drive to this significant city will enchant you.
Once celebrated for its mountain climate and thermal springs, Antsirabe was renowned as a luxurious spa town. Take a moment to appreciate the villas, verdant gardens, and even the colonial hotel that still stands as a testament to its glamorous past. The lively streets teem with "pousse-pousse" (bicycle rickshaws) - a sight unique to Madagascar!
Exploring the city is highly recommended, offering glimpses into Madagascar's treasures, including miniature workshops and art galleries that showcase the nation's cultural richness.
Let's start by exploring Fianarantsoa, which is known as "where one learns the good." It is Madagascar's most populous city and is widely considered the epicenter of Betsileo culture.
During your time in the city, take a city tour to get familiar with its religious and historical monuments, as well as the upper and lower parts of the city.
In addition to the cultural and faith-based history of Fianarantsoa, it is also home to some incredible vineyards. So don't forget to taste the local wines during your visit!
Today, as you journey southward, Ranohira promises a realm of new discoveries. Your passage from the terraced highlands to the arid southern region will be punctuated by the iconic "gate of the south," a striking granite formation. Along the route, you'll encounter herds of cattle and their shepherds, emblematic of one of Madagascar's most distinctive cultures.
Throughout the drive, expansive grass steppes and imposing rock formations will intermingle with rivers and quaint villages shaded by mango trees. En route to Ranohira in the Isalo Mountains, you'll traverse the treeless plateau of Ihorombe, passing by the revered Bishop's hat, a sacred site for locals.
Later in the afternoon, prepare to witness the breathtaking spectacle of the sunset through the "Window of Isalo," an awe-inspiring moment amidst the splendor of nature.

The landscape, painted in shades of blue, boasts rugged mountains adorned with remarkable rock formations and caves, creating a mesmerizing spectacle.
Amidst the arid terrain, tranquil streams and oases offer moments of serenity and respite. Don't miss the captivating mountain vista, where gleaming rocks dot the landscape. After a delightful day of exploration, indulge in a refreshing swim in a naturally landscaped swimming pool, a perfect way to unwind and rejuvenate.
Prepare to leave Ranohira behind as you set off on your journey to Ambalavao. Upon arrival, make sure to visit a remarkable attraction - the papier antemoro, an ancient paper crafted from papyrus infused with flowers and leaves.
This unique experience is not to be missed, offering a glimpse into a traditional craft. Located near the Boungainvillées hotel, the workshop showcases a variety of items including albums, postcards, and more, all crafted from this exquisite paper.
