=== Tour description ===

'''Day 1: [[Maroantsetra]] - [[Nosy Mangabe]] (L/D)'''<br>
After breakfast transfer by boat to Nosy Mangabe (20 minutes). If we are lucky we might see dolphins and Humpback whales during July until the first two weeks in September. Nosy Mangabe is a pristine lowland rainforest island of 5.20km² and the best place to see Black-and-white ruffed lemur and White-fronted brown lemur.  Nosy Mangabe's reptile and amphibian fauna is equally dramatic; among others, there are countless colourful and photogenic frogs, chameleons and geckos. We may encounter the Panther chameleon, Antongil leaf chameleon (the second smallest chameleon in the world), Climbing mantella, Green day-gecko and the incredibly camouflaged Common flat-tail gecko  sleeping on the tree trunk during the day.
