About us

A team based in Madagascar. A trip planned with you.

Zeno Travel is run by two co-managers based in Madagascar. We plan each trip by speaking with you directly and coordinating the local partners needed to deliver it.

Zeno began with a simple idea: to share Madagascar with care and perspective.

We are two Malagasy people based in Antananarivo. We grew up here, with this island as our starting point, and we continue to discover it through our travels.

Before Zeno, we were already travelling through different parts of Madagascar out of curiosity and a desire to discover. Those trips showed us how much the same destination can change depending on the pace, the route and the time spent in each place.

Zeno Travel grew from that idea: to plan trips from Madagascar, taking the time to choose the stages, places to stay and local partners that fit each traveller’s plans.

The Zeno team

The people planning your journey.

You speak directly with us while your trip is being planned. Once you are in Madagascar, we remain your point of contact for questions and adjustments relating to the services organised by Zeno.

01The Zeno experience

What we prepare with you.

01

An arrival planned in advance.

Before you arrive, we confirm the transfers, useful contacts and first stages included in your programme.

02

An itinerary adapted to your plans.

Dates, pace, accommodation and stages are discussed with you, subject to availability and the practical feasibility of the itinerary.

03

A point of contact during your trip.

If you have a question or something unexpected happens, you can contact us. We liaise with the relevant providers and explain the available options depending on the situation.

02How we work

From your first idea to departure.

01

You write to us.

Your dates, the number of travellers, a few ideas and, if you already have one in mind, your budget are enough to get started.

02

We prepare a proposal.

We send you an itinerary and quote, then refine them with you before the trip is confirmed.

03

You confirm, we coordinate.

Once the trip is confirmed under the terms provided to you, we coordinate the agreed services and remain your point of contact during your stay.

It all starts with a conversation, no strings attached.

Our philosophy

Planning your trip from Madagascar.

Being based here allows us to discuss routes, accommodation and local partners in practical terms. When conditions change, we check them before advising you.
