Do you want to have a unique car and impress the locals, while also being able to drive smoothly and by yourself? Then you should definitely rent a Karenjy from Ravi. It is something you will never forget. The contact with Ravi was very smooth and we would definitely do it again!

Highly recommended. If you’re looking for a great driving experience in Madagascar you cannot miss the opportunity to drive the only car 100% produced locally: the Karenjy Mazana II. Ravi, the owner, is super helpful and kind, he managed to organise the trip and the drop-off in a very short amount of time. We drove through the RN7 with several detours (Andasibe, Ranofamana etc) without any problems. It was great to travel the country on such an iconic car, we’ve also visited the factory in Fianarantsoa (Ravi arranged it for us) where you can actually see how they build it…totally handmade 🤯 All went smooth, despite the distinctive holes in the Malagasy roads.
