Dhow safaris, kayak tours & adventure trips to Madagascar

We're an owner run and managed company based in Cape Town and we're proud to announce that we've been featured in a few travel publications and on air. Our adventure trips to Madagascar are something we're passionate about and Madagascar is pretty much our second home! We want you to experience our lifestyle of balmy days filled with sunshine and relaxation. From R9 615 (flights from JHB are included) you can join an 8 day adventure dhow safari in the Nosy be archipelago in North Western Madagascar.



We've actually built our dhows using traditional tools and methods, then added a few essentials like an engine, toilet and galley, which is useful for when we head off to the islands. Our island safari adventures started out as a camping experience. We now have private camps at Russian Bay, Mahalina and Lokobie with rustic bungalows, thick mattresses and shared ablution facilities.

We normally set off from Helville on one of our dhows, Salama Djema or Salama Tsara and most days try to include motor sailing, swimming, relaxation time, sea kayaking, fishing, snorkeling, cold beer and delicious meals. We certainly have all the ingrediants for the ideal tropical island getaway!

Why should you book through us?

1. We've built own dhows and camps, choosing the locations carefully to create a sense of adventure.
2. It's the only cost effective way of reaching the outer islands.
3. Mohamed (business parter) has lived in Nosy Be his whole life.He knows the people of Nosy Be and the ‘lie of the land’.
4. All trips can be tweaked to suit special interests. It is possible to subtly change the trip if there are children aboard or if the group are particularly keen on fishing, kayaking and snorkeling in Madagascar.
