Travel
agents

Travelife certified

As a DMC, we are certified by Travelife, the internationally pioneering management and certification programme for travel organisations that want to work sustainably.

Customised trip developed by Madafocus

You put your customer in touch with Madafocus. We schedule an online itinerary meeting with your customer. During the meeting, we explore your customer’s wishes – directly with them – and shape every detail of the trip. The price quotation follows.

This online meeting is a direct conversation with Frank Janssens, the founder of Madafocus, who is absolutely crazy about Madagascar.

It’s perfect for those who want to entrust us with the service and rely on our many years of local experience.

Customised trip developed by the tour operator

The same principle as the Fossa formula. The big difference is that the tour operator, rather than Madafocus, discusses wishes for the trip and its content with their customer.

Did you know Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world?

Thanks to its continental characteristics, the Red Island offers travellers an incredible variety of landscapes.

One destination, three different climate zones (read more about the three zones of Madagascar). A fascinating mix of European, African and Asian influences, combined with extraordinary wildlife and plant life. The perfect gateway to discovering Africa.

Madagascar is not always top of mind for travellers. But we bet you’ll surprise them with this destination.
What do you already know about Madagascar?

Test your knowledge in our mini quiz.

Question 4: How do my clients receive their travel preparation and itinerary?

In the first proposal we outline the journey day by day. This includes the route, the planned activities and a description of the accommodations.

Once your client confirms the trip, they receive, depending on the arrangements we have made, access to our travel app where the detailed itinerary is available online. That way your clients always have their programme at hand.

Very simple: subscribe to our newsletter.
You’ll regularly receive Malagasy inspiration straight in your inbox.

Question 7: When is the best time for travellers to visit Madagascar?

In short: almost all year round, except for January, February and early March. During these months the rainy season brings long and heavy rainfall.

All other months are wonderful for your clients.

Discover the different seasons and their unique charms here.

Question 9: In which languages does Madafocus assist you and your clients?

We’re proud to have grown into the leading DMC in Madagascar for travellers in English, German and Dutch. We also happily assist in French and other languages.

Question 8: Avoid ‘fully booked’. How can I book as smoothly as possible?

When planning a trip, availability is key.

But what if charming and popular lodges are already fully booked by the time your client makes a decision?

With a provisional booking you can hold the best options, gain valuable time and avoid disappointment for your travellers.
