6:Avenue of the Baobabs, Madagascar

Picture trees so ancient and massive they look like upside-down umbrellas. These baobabs line a dusty road, creating the kind of postcard vista that blasts your Instagram feed. I timed my visit for sunrise and felt like I was walking through a Dr. Seuss illustration…

If you’re venturing to the surreal Avenue of the Baobabs, unwind afterward at Nosy Be Hotel & Spa for beachfront massages under swaying palms.
For a deeper dive into Madagascar resorts, try eco-lodge stays near Ranomafana or Ile Sainte-Marie’s ocean-front bungalows.
I loved trading sunset silhouettes of baobabs for moonlit dips in infinity pools—pure magic. pairing baobab wonders with island-style pampering is a combo you’ll rave about.
