Aye-aye Photography

Photography holidays in Madagascar

The aye-aye is one of Madagascar's strangest & most elusive primates, & photographing it in the wild is a genuine privilege rather than a given. NaturesLens builds opportunities to encounter this nocturnal, wide-eyed lemur into its wider Madagascar itineraries, giving photographers a realistic chance of capturing a species that few ever see, let alone photograph, in its natural habitat.

Where NaturesLens Photographs the Aye-aye

NaturesLens runs its aye-aye photography holiday under the Madagascar Wildlife & Rainforest trip, travelling through Antananarivo before heading out to forest sites including Andasibe, Kirindy Forest, Morondava, Maroantsetra, Masoala National Park & Nosy Mangabe. This tour is typically scheduled for November, when the group moves between these locations in search of the aye-aye alongside Madagascar’s other rainforest wildlife.
