Planning your Madagascar trip
Best time to go: May to October is the cooler, dry season. November to April is hot and rainy, with a risk of destructive cyclones, especially on the east coast.
- Tsingy de Bemaraha Strict Nature ReserveSee sharp limestone towers, forests, lemurs, birds and rare chameleons. Access is restricted, and the areas open to visitors can change.
- Avenue of the BaobabsThis group of huge baobab trees is about 45 minutes north of Morondava. Some trees are over 800 years old, and sunset is especially good for photographs.
- Merina Kingdom sitesHistoric sites from the Merina Kingdom can be seen in different parts of Madagascar.
- Rainforests of the AtsinananaThis World Heritage Site includes six national parks along the east coast. They include Marojejy, Masoala, Zahamena, Ranomafana, Andringitra and Andohahela.
Scams to watch for in Madagascar
- Pickpocketing in markets and on public transportThieves take belongings while travellers are in crowded places. Visible valuables and large amounts of cash can attract attention.
- High airport taxi quotesDrivers may ask for 60,000 Ar for a journey described as costing around 40,000 Ar. A high opening quote can leave an inexperienced visitor paying more than expected.
- Photo offers that lead to requests for moneySomeone may offer something first, such as a chameleon to photograph, before asking for a handout. This can create pressure to give money. The offer alone does not prove dishonesty.
