Madagascar Family Homestay : Experience The Island Living with a Real Malagasy Family


Want to stay with a real Madagascar local family, in a city or farm or special area, and experience normal life, learn about the culture and language, and even just have a once-in-a-lifetime experience? Money isn't such a challenge here as just having the time and heart to dedicate yourself. We choose families and homes in excellent and supportive, safe communities throughout Madagascar and have set up homestays for French and American volunteers and NGO's, gap years, students, PhD researchers, science principal investigators, and even detectives and writers! 


Want to learn about vanilla in Andapa with a vanilla family or baron? Want to see what it is like to live in a rainforest community affected by deforestation and ecotourism? Want to live on a beach and party with young but real local people all the time? Want to live with a few young Malagasy in a startup community? Wish you could really dig in longer and deeper than a tourist, and make real and lifelong friends? Want to just live in your relatives or boyfriend's hometown or just wake up to birds and lemurs? Wish to live near a real mayor or politician or police commissioner or judge and see what day to day travails are like for them and learn? Then come! It is a great investment of time, nearly free, and there are hundreds of wonderful Malagasy families and towns that are used to hosting you!

Requirements for Madagascar Homestays are a clean bill of health from your doctor, proof of travel and medical insurance, proof of approximately $500 per month spending money, and a CV and introduction letter.

We can assign hosts and guests about 2-12 months in advance, but for more or less you'll have to check for availability.

Madagascar Homestays are available in most regions but including:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Antananarivo and Urban Life in the Capital

Antalaha and the Vanilla Farming World

Diego Suarez and the Seafarers and Fishing Communities

Rice Farms in the Merina or Saklava Regions

Chocolate Factories and Industries in Ambanja

Rainforest Communities in Ramanofana, Andasibe, Berenty, and More

Families Living on the Frontier and Mountains 

Health Workers, Civil Servants, Police and Military families, mayors and judges and their tough lives.

Zoologists and Botanists and local traditional Malagasy medicine doctors

...And much more!


*Homestays in Madagascar are available contingent of you being accepted by the host family, and it is recommended to learn a little bit of French before coming. If you do not speak any French, we can put you with English-speaking families as well, though they are more limited geographically.
