Car hire Madagascar - self-drive holidays with Roadtrip Madagascar

Our fleet

Our fleet consists of two 4x4 categories: the Nissan Double Cab ( 4x4 ''heavy'') and the smaller Nissan X-Trail / Toyota Prado / Toyota RAV4, referred to as the 4x4 ''light'' category. The Double Cab is new and with increased clearance and bigger wheels, able to beat any terrain. The 4x4 light vehicles are best value for money if you are planning to cruise down the RN7, or North towards Nosy Be and Diego Suarez.

We own all our vehicles and never subcontract from third parties. Each car is serviced at our own workshop after every trip. In the unlikely event that you have a break down, rest assured that we offer 24/7 roadside assistance and have a replacement vehicle ready.

Add some adventure with camping gear

Hire a car with camp gear

As opposed to our other roadtrip destinations, accommodation is really cheap in Madagascar. Nevertheless, camp gear does come in handy, in particular during peak season (July-Sept), when many of the lodges along the RN7 are fully booked long in advance. Keep in mind that camping possibilities are less widespread in Madagascar than compared to our other destinations, in particular along the west coast. Wild camping is not a sensible thing to do if you are only with the two of you.

We can equip the Nissan Double Cab with a rooftop tent or you hire a dome tent. Both come with a full set of quality camp gear, consisting of a mattress, sleeping bag, headlights, cooking equipment, chairs and table.

Camp gear set with ground tent	€ 5 pp/day
Camp set with roof top tent (Double Cab only)	€ 20 car /day
