Bloqué à Madagascar en attente d'une solution
Bonjour L'un de mes amis est bloqué à Madagascar depuis plus de 2 mois On lui avait laissé entendre un avion pour le 24/4. Finalement cet avion a été totalement réservé par d'autres pays Européens. L'Ambassade de France lui demande de ne plus les ennuyer, et de "prendre son mal en patience" Il est très fatigué par les conditions climatiques, et le fait de ne pas entrevoir de solution à court et moyen terme D'autres personnes dans cette situation? Entraide possible pour en sortir? Merci

How to get from Antalaha to Maroantsetra?
hi there

I’ll be in Antalaha in October and need to get to Maroantsetra. I’ve heard it’s possible by boat, but I can’t find any info about it. So I’m wondering if I’ll have to arrange something with local fishing boats or something else, and whether it’s a risky trip since the sea can get rough on Madagascar’s east coast. Has anyone done this before, or just know anything about it? What do you think?

Parcours à Madagascar avec chauffeur-guide et essence payée à l'avance
Bonjour...J'ai engagé un chauffeur-guide qui a une bonne reputation a Madagascar.Découvert sur le web, avec de bonne ''reviews'' Nous allons passer 26 jours total avec lui. Mais il nous demande de payer l'essence avant le depart, pour tout le parcours des 26 jours. Il dit que nous parcoureront 3900km, et que ca coutera $490 euros. Est-ce la pratique normal de faire payer a l'avance pour l'essence dans ce pays ??? Et si oui, est ce que vous croyez que c'est raisonnable ???

Merci de votre aide...

Salary ou la Baie des Assassins (Madagascar)?
Salut,

Je crée un nouveau sujet pour un titre bien précis (mon précédent message parlant du voyage dans son entier).

Au bout du voyage, nous voulons nous couper du monde, perdu sur la plage avec pourquoi pas de quoi explorer sur terre aussi (3 jours pleins). D'où la question:

À Salary, chez Cécile "un peu plus au nord", ou chez Pierrot le suisse dans la baie des assassins ?

Et en question bonus: sur le trajet, j'aimerais proposer un baptême de plongée à mes ados. Une adresse immanquable ? J'ai vu Atimoo plongée et Deep sea club déjà.

Feedback on our 2-month stay in Madagascar
Hello, After asking questions on the site, here’s a little feedback on our trip in March and April. Marseille/Antananarivo flight with Ethiopian Airlines was great both ways. I’d recommend it. Domestic flights with Madagascar Airlines were just as smooth. We had to change our plans because I was the victim of a snatch-theft attempt at Ivato... patellar fracture... so I ended up with a brace and more rest than hikes. This let us spend more time in the same areas and make some connections. We loved Tulear. Stayed with Alain—excellent value for money. Mangily, where we stayed for 15 days. Hotel Bella Dona due to my little handicap. The pool replaced sea swims. Mangily gets a bad rap for being very touristy. True, you get approached a lot on the beach—you have to play along and buy some trinkets, but after that, you get royal peace and lots of exchanges with locals. The village and its lively street are nice too. Don’t hesitate to eat with fishermen or at local bars. Anakao, a big favorite. Just the journey there is worth it. Watching dozens of pirogues set off between 5 and 6 AM is a magical moment. Stayed at Peter Pan’s place. Lots of chats with Dario since we were the only guests. Planned a 4-day Antananarivo–Soniara–Ivango road trip with a driver. Cut to 2 days because the boat to Sainte Marie was moved up due to weather. I don’t remember the company’s name, but it wasn’t great for safety—plus, we brought back fleas. Visited Andasibe Park along the way. Quick tip: go in the morning. A little over 2 weeks on Sainte Marie at Hôtel Mantis Soanambo—total luxury negotiated at a price that defied all competition because it was low season. Meals were at little local eateries nearby. We chose not to sleep on Île aux Nattes but went there several times during the day (crossing: 4000 ariary for 2). You have to take a pirogue tour—it’s like stepping into a postcard. Sainte Marie is a special place. A tropical island that feels like the Caribbean ones we’ve lived on. No security issues at all. We rented a scooter because we found tuk-tuk prices a bit steep. You can leave the scooter with helmet and keys and come back 4 hours later. More amazing encounters here too. Last part of our trip in Ampefy, a beautiful volcanic region with a very welcoming population. Stayed with a friend of our driver. Hotels in Ivato are plentiful and vary a lot in quality. Les 12 Collines is a bit out of the way but only 21 € per night. La Chato... very expensive for what you get. I tried to keep it short. Madagascar is a wonderful island with so many facets. Always so many emotions when I think back on this trip. The extreme poverty... don’t hesitate to buy food for the kids on the beach, for example. It doesn’t cost much, but it means a lot to them. The kindness of the people and, above all, those SMILES. We’re hooked—we’re going back in November for 6 months... because yes, you can buy a 3-month visa at the airport (a question I’d asked), and you can extend it for another 3 months... if you apply in time at a police station. We didn’t take Malarone either. We’d brought some, but there were few mosquitoes, and "Insect Écran" worked really well.

Resuming discussions and returning to Madagascar
Oh, the good news—the site is back up after such a long closure. I think many of us were really missing it, though some have moved on to other forums like Routard. Hopefully, activity will pick up little by little. Travel habits have probably changed post-Covid, and some regulars won’t be coming back for all sorts of reasons. But for the rest of us, the forum is here for travel journals and pre-trip questions. Anyway…

Back to the main point: my last trip to Madagascar was a while ago now—about a year—on the High Plateaus during the austral winter. It was really chilly, and to be honest, my feelings were mixed between the joy of returning to Madagascar and the sadness of seeing the state of the country. The infrastructure is crumbling, and the population is sinking into poverty at unprecedented levels. The country’s closure likely had immeasurable consequences, compounded by destructive cyclones. Even secondary cities have seen large numbers of rural people arriving in search of work, while some rural areas barely allow survival. I’ve never felt such despair over the situation in 20 years.

From Tana to Fianar, it was nothing but heartbreaking observations. Probably made worse by the drizzle and cold typical of that season in the region.

In a few weeks, I’m planning to return to the High Plateaus and also Sainte Marie. On that note, a few questions: has anyone stayed at Samaria Cosy Lodge, and what did you think of it? On Île aux Nattes, which hotel would you recommend for a few peaceful days, ideally on the coast best suited for snorkeling?

Thanks in advance

Exchanging money in Antananarivo
Things may have changed... 10 years ago, we were advised not to exchange money at Ivato Airport when arriving, but rather in shops like electronics stores.

Quelques nouvelles de Tana et Sainte-Marie
Au 30 juin, sont comptabilisés 20 morts pour 2138 cas à Madagascar officiellement. C'est évidemment totalement faux, le virus se répand très vite dans tout le pays. D'après le président, les décédés sont ceux qui n'ont pas bu son remède Organics-Covid !!! Les hôpitaux sont assaillis et sont soignés en priorité ceux qui peuvent payer, comme d'habitude. A Tana tous les commerces doivent fermer à 17 heures, les transports publics vont jusqu'à 19 heures. Dans les taxi-bé, la rangée du milieu est laissée libre en principe mais tous les passagers sont côte à côte. Le couvre-feu est instauré de 22 h à 4 heures du matin. Les marchés sont ouverts sans gestes barrière. Les plus démunis essaient de quitter la capitale. Pas de taxi-brousse, interdit de sortir de la ville en auto sans autorisation spéciale, idem pour y rentrer. Pas d'avions que ce soit pour l'étranger ou l'intérieur. 2 000 personnes sont sur liste d'attente pour partir. Un ami a un billet Air France pour le 17 août mais on lui a fait comprendre que ce serait très probablement reporté. A Sainte-Marie, 60 résidents ont quitté l'île en avion pour la Réunion cette semaine. Douze personnes qui avaient réussi à rallier Tana par la route grâce au consul honoraire de Nosy Boraha ont vu débarqué la sécurité au Sakamanga où ils ont été confinés 24 heures. Plusieurs cas ont été identifiés à Sainte-Marie. La docteure Coco en est décédée ces derniers jours. Bref, ce n'est pas gagné...

Vingt jours à Madagascar: le nord ou le sud?
Salut les voyageurs,

Nous partons à Madagascar les 20 premiers jours d'octobre prochain avec ma copine :) Destination qui nous donnait envie depuis un moment. Après s'être renseignés a droite a gauche sur les différents coins à cibler, notre dilemme est enfin la : l'ouest, ou le nord.

Peut-être certains d'entre vous connaissent les deux régions et pourraient nous donner leur(s) avis ? Peut-être aussi qu'il est jouable de visiter les deux en 2/3 semaines, mais on préfère ne pas courir (et on a bien compris que les temps de trajets ne sont pas les mêmes que chez nous), en prenant le temps d'en voir seule à la cool.

Du coup, on hésite entre :

LE NORD : Diego - trois baies, baie de sakalava, montagnes des francais, d'ambre - mer d'émeraude (iles autour ? kitesurf ? balaines ?) - parc d'Ankara - Ambaja - Finir une petite semaine nosy be et ses iles (des spots à ne pas louper ?)

L'OUEST : Antsirabé -Miandrivazo - belo sur Tsiribihina, Tsingy de Bemahara, Morondova - Puis descente jusqu'à Tulear la dernière semaine pour profiter des belles plages !

Vous l'avez compris, on est pas originaux : on aimerait de la jungle de la terre et du lagon , alors si quelqu'un a parcouru de près (ou d'un peu plus loin) l'un de ces deux circuits, on écouterai avec attention vos expériences ! Même des conseils ou choses auxquelles ont ne pense pas forcément en partant la bas :)

Comme par exemple, ce point qui nous taraude : chauffeur en 4x4 qui nous suit H24 (pas fan), ou taxi et taxi brousse en avisant selon nos déplacements ?

En espérant un mini écho,

Cotisse Tana-Majunga trip, getting off at Antanambaza
Hi, I’m taking the Cotisse bus soon to go to Antsohihy, so the route is Tana-Majunga with a stop at Antanambaza. How long does it take to get to Antanambaza? Should I leave at 6:30 PM or 7:00 AM? Considering I’ll probably need to find a hotel while waiting for a *taxi be* to Antsohihy, I’d rather not arrive in the middle of the night. And since I’m asking—does anyone have a hotel recommendation in Antanambaza? Also, can you find a seat on a *taxi be* mid-route?

4- to 5-day itinerary for Madagascar
Hi there, following a work trip, I’ll have 4.5 days left to get a quick overview of Madagascar during the last week of February. I’ll already have had a good look around Tana (3 days of work and 1.5 days beforehand to see 1 or 2 points of interest 2-3 hours from Tana).

Is it feasible to spend the remaining 4.5 days like this:

- Day 1 & 2 (and maybe the morning of Day 3): relaxing on a coast with a pleasant climate, for example, a one-way flight to Tuléar (there’s a flight on Day 1 at 3 AM) and heading to a nice beach. Ideally, I’d have liked to go toward Morondava (baobabs, beautiful beaches near Belo), but the flight schedules don’t really work, and it wouldn’t let me visit Isalo.

- Then 2 days to head back up via the RN7, ideally with a stop in Isalo, which really appeals to me (I’m an experienced hiker in France), and/or Ranomafana. But do the weather conditions allow for long hikes in that area? Ideally, I’d like to do Tuléar–Tana by public transport up to my first road stop (shared bus? To Isalo?), then find a local hiking guide for the day. And take another transport to another point of interest before returning to Tana, where I have my return flight to France on Day 5 at noon.

My questions: - How to travel from Day 3 to Day 5 from the west coast (Tuléar? Morondava?) back to Tana? I’d prefer not to depend on a guide the whole way, but if I have to 🤷🏽‍♂️) If I choose Morondava, will I miss out on really interesting spots I could’ve seen along the RN7?

I’m open to any suggestions or ideas to make the most of these 4.5 days, like another beach destination I might not have considered (I ruled out Nosy Bé because of the February weather—maybe I was wrong?)

What itinerary for three weeks in Madagascar this summer?
Hi there, I’m planning a 22-day trip to Madagascar this July.

And I could really use some advice 😊

Here’s what I’m sure about: Spending a few days in Nosy Be so my daughter can complete her Open Water certification—so I’m thinking 4 or 5 days there. I think Diego Suarez, Montagne d’Ambre, and Ankarana would suit what we like to do and have the advantage of being close to Nosy Be.

Now, the parts I’m unsure about, especially because of travel times:

My daughters really want to see whales. Is it possible around Nosy Be, or is Sainte Marie *the* must-visit spot? And what’s the weather like at that time of year? If we choose Sainte Marie, maybe do the Pangalanes Canal? Or is the route from Diego to Sainte Marie via the Vanilla Road a must-do?

Another option could be exploring the east with the Tsiribihina River and the Avenue of the Baobabs in Morondava.

Thanks in advance for your tips!

Nothing’s stopping you from going to Ampefy (Madagascar)
During these three big weeks in Madagascar, one week in Sainte Marie, a few days for a little loop in the west/south, and the rest in Tana. This loop I’m talking about covers an area I’d never taken the time to visit before. A recent road in good condition, the chance to pass through beautiful highland landscapes, and a few free days made it the perfect opportunity. Destination: Ampefy, west of Tana via the RN1, then a turn south onto the recently rehabilitated RN43 to reach Antsirabe before heading back to Tana. Four days planned—perfect, since an extra day wouldn’t have been a problem given all the activities in Ampefy.

First day: a relaxed and fairly late departure for Ampefy. We weren’t in a rush and took our time. Traffic leaving Tana to get back on the RN1 cost us the head start we had on our original schedule. An hour and a half bumper-to-bumper with the *buxis*, inching painfully toward the roundabout and then the bridge that acts as a bottleneck—we dove in like all our fellow sufferers. It’s not our everyday reality, and we were early, so no big deal, but man, it’s long and slow. Once past that obstacle, traffic flowed smoothly, and the road was good (all the way to Ampefy). We moved through highland landscapes, bustling villages full of activity, and countless agricultural supply shops—clear proof, if any were needed, that we were crossing a prime farming region. Around Arivonimamo, we passed through a forest with a Mediterranean vibe: a single-species forest of stout little trees with glossy, elongated light-green leaves—these are *tapia*. An endemic tree in Madagascar, and a pretty unique forest as a result (you can see them elsewhere, like between Antsirabe and Ambositra). There are efforts to protect it from illegal logging because the wood is fire-resistant, which helps shield the forest from wildfires. Beyond its biodiversity value, the *tapia* hosts silkworms, giving it economic and cultural importance.

As we kept going, we started spotting a lake and mountains with the rounded shapes typical of extinct volcanoes worn down by time and the elements. We were approaching Lake Itasy and, by extension, Ampefy. We stopped at a *hotely* for a plate of *tongon’kisoa*—pig’s trotters caramelized by cooking, with thick, flavorful skin—along with the obligatory portion of rice, which we took the time to drizzle with cooking juices to make it a bit more appetizing. Full, we turned left to reach Ampefy and our hotel. The landscape was dotted with collapsed, dormant volcanic cones, and suddenly, the view opened up onto the lake. Shallow and expansive, we followed it, losing sight of it now and then before finding it again in Ampefy itself, which we entered after crossing the Lily, a beautiful river that drains the lake. Lots of hotels and restaurants, with plenty of options at all price points. We chose the *Farihy*, about 5 km past Ampefy. A gorgeous spot by the lake, with a pool and lovely bungalows—some with picture windows overlooking the lake. Really nice. In the evening, a drink and some *sak sak* for aperitif on the terrace. It wasn’t warm, there was a lot of wind, and a storm was brewing. Off to bed quickly to start the next day’s visits.

After buying some lychees—we hadn’t seen many this year, and these were fresh from the field, picked in Ampefy—we headed to the Lily Falls. Well signposted, with a paved road in great condition, we stopped at the kiosk for the entrance fee and parking (1 euro for one *vahiny* and 10 cents for one Malagasy). We set off down the path and quickly reached the first waterfall, then continued for maybe 1 km on a well-marked trail to the second. A guide led us to the third, which is harder to spot and isn’t actually on the Lily itself. Beautiful countryside scenery: fishermen straight out of *Tom Sawyer*, straw hats on their heads, lying down with one foot hooked to a fragile bamboo rod, their line dipping into the calm river. Men preparing rice paddies with their *angady*, women transplanting rice, bent over the water. At some points, we walked along the dikes between paddies almost ready for harvest. It’s peaceful and beautiful when you’re strolling or fishing, but working the paddies is grueling, especially under that beating sun. A really nice walk—2 hours and a bit, going at a leisurely pace. A guide isn’t mandatory; only the entrance fee is. We took one because it provides a bit of work and puts money in the hands of locals, giving them more incentive to protect the site. But you can easily skip it, like most people do. Lots of visitors since it was the weekend—Tananarivians with family or groups of young people, scout groups organized under their chaperones’ direction. Very few foreign tourists, though—that’s a general observation. It’s great to see this growth in domestic tourism, giving Malagasy people the chance to discover their own country and allowing those in the sector to rely less on foreign visitors, who’ve been scarce for years.

Next, we headed to the "geysers" (which aren’t actually geysers, but whatever). We had to go back to the RN1, head toward Tsiroanomandidy, and a few kilometers later, a well-marked sign and a newly paved track led us to a pretty site. Again, lots of people, another kiosk, more fees to pay, and guides available. This time, we skipped the guide. A downpour caught us in front of the "geysers," so we took shelter under a little shop, grabbing an ice cream and some drinks. We didn’t stay long—we weren’t interested in a massage or a dip in the thermal water. The countryside and barren mountain landscapes were stunning on the way back to the hotel. We noticed you could go paragliding right in front of the bungalow, so we booked a session for the next morning. After eating at the *Auberge* in the town center (it was good), we headed back to the hotel to turn in early. Once again, a storm rolled in during the afternoon, and the temperature dropped significantly.

The next morning, around 8 a.m., we walked to the takeoff zone near the hotel. Towed by a small boat, we took off for a flight over the lake and the volcanic domes before landing back at the same spot. Two companies handle this. I’m no expert, but it seemed safe and well-organized.

Idées de périple 3 semaines à Madagascar avec chauffeur-guide sur juillet/août
Premier voyage à Mada (couple + 2 grands ados). Nous avons lu pas mal de messages et regardé des vidéos de voyageurs, ce qui nous a permis d'identifier ce que nous pourrions faire en 3 semaines. Nous aimerions voyager avec un chauffeur guide. Vous pourrez sûrement nous aider sur la durée du tout... Sommes-nous trop gourmands ou est-ce raisonnable ? Dans ce périple, y a-t-il des lieux à ne pas manquer ? Voici mon premier jet:

Départ de Tana vers l'est par la RN2. Arrêt à la réserve Analamazoatra RN11 pour rejoindre le canal des Pangalanes 3 ou 4 jours pour descendre le canal vers le sud (bateau taxi) Le train de Manakara à Fiana RN7 vers Tulear Du temps pour un ptit trek dans l'Andringitra ? J'en doute... Parc Isalo De Tulear, aller au nord ou au sud en Pirogue pour aller se poser quelque part Pour remonter sur Tana et rester compatible avec le temps des vacances, je crois qu'il faudra le faire en avion... Restera-t-il du temps pour aller à Ampefy ?

Qu'est-ce que cela vous inspire ?
