Encounter over 100 species of lemurs found nowhere else on Earth, from tiny mouse lemurs to dancing sifakas that hop sideways across the ground. Madagascar's isolated evolution created these charismatic primates that range from playful ring-tails to the haunting calls of indri lemurs echoing through rainforest canopies.

βIt couldnβt have been minutes before we heard the rustle in the bushes, and boom, a lemur was jumping right over our heads to a tree next to us. Gosh, these things are acrobatic, cute, and beautiful by nature.β
βOnce we arrived, our guide arranged another guide who would take us through the forest to see these beautiful lemurs. Only one issue: they werenβt as friendly with tourists. Hiding in the trees, we eventually managed to get a small glimpse of them, but not up close like the othersβ¦β
βFinishing up with the walking part, our guide directed us to a small boat that would take us to see the King Julien Lemurs. As we werenβt taking malaria pills due to every pharmacy being sold out in the country, it was a bit nerve-wracking due to the sheer amount of mosquitoes close to the water on the boatβ¦β
