Our story

Born from a passion for Madagascar

Founded in 2012 by Onja Randrianarijaona, 4wdmada grew from a passion for adventure, human connection and Madagascar’s extraordinary landscapes.

After working as a driver-guide in tourism, Onja brought together his love of 4x4 travel, camping, trekking, hiking and sport to create journeys that go beyond the usual routes.

Every itinerary is individually designed to reveal hidden places, respect your budget and create genuine encounters with Malagasy life and nature.
