2025 Madagascar Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in September)

🏜️ Madagascar: The Island of Natural Mysteries and Wildlife **Madagascar**, located in the Indian Ocean, is renowned for its unique ecosystem and diverse wildlife. With numerous nature reserves and rare flora and fauna, Madagascar is an ideal destination for travelers who love exploring nature. Key Attractions Rare Wildlife: Madagascar is home to many unique animals, such as lemurs and the fossa, which can only be found on this island. Known as a kingdom of animals, Madagascar offers a chance to observe these extraordinary creatures in their natural habitat. Nature Reserves: Places like Ranomafana and Andasibe nature reserves allow visitors to get up close to exotic plants and animals. Ancient Forests and Limestone Landscapes: Madagascar's ancient forests and limestone formations provide stunning natural scenery. Iconic trees like the baobab are symbolic of the island's unique vegetation. Beaches and Ocean: The beaches and coral reefs surrounding Madagascar are perfect for diving and snorkeling. The crystal-clear waters and pristine marine ecosystem are major draws for visitors. Travel Tips Madagascar has significant climate variations, so be sure to pack warm clothing and waterproof gear. Some areas of the island can be challenging to navigate, so planning your trip with a local guide is recommended. For diving and snorkeling, bring an underwater camera and snorkeling equipment to make the most of your experience.

The Vanilla Islands, though all island nations, are rarely visited by Chinese tourists. Hidden in a vibrant corner of Africa, they are true secluded paradises in the Indian Ocean. 🏝️ With minimal development, clusters of wild and untamed landscapes, and a simple, devout population preserving their faith, these islands offer a chance to experience Earth's most pristine beauty, encounter wildlife up close, and savor the cultural essence of distant lands. 🗺️ After visiting the Vanilla Islands, we developed an island-hopping group tour. Surprisingly, the stunning sea views have become the least remarkable highlight. 👇 📌 Witness an "alien world" — Avenue of the Baobabs Located in Morondava, Madagascar, this avenue boasts 800-year-old baobab trees, with over 20 towering up to 30 meters. Driving through feels like stepping into an extraterrestrial realm. Madagascar is home to 7 of the world's 8 baobab species. 📌 Marvel at the "Underwater Waterfall" Though an optical illusion created by underwater terrain and sand flows, the aerial view is truly breathtaking. A 3,500-meter underwater cliff creates the illusion of a massive white waterfall plunging into the deep sea. 📌 Explore the "Lemur Paradise" — Andasibe Reserve This reserve is home to 11 lemur species. Paddle a canoe to Lemur Island for close encounters with brown lemurs, ring-tailed lemurs, dancing lemurs, and the adorable "panda lemurs." You may also spot Nile crocodiles, Angolan tortoises, and glowing nocturnal creatures among the diverse wildlife. 📌 Enjoy nearly 100% "swim-with-dolphins" success rate — Tamarin Mauritius' Dolphin Bay is the perfect spot to observe bottlenose dolphins up close. These friendly dolphins often appear in groups, and you can jump into the water to swim alongside them. If lucky, you might see hundreds of dolphins freely gliding through the water. …… A great destination deserves thoughtful arrangements, and our tour ensures you make the most of your trip. 👇 ✅ Two helicopter tours: one to view the underwater waterfall and another for a scenic flight around Réunion Island, showcasing ancient cirques, majestic waterfalls, deep ravines, mountains, lakes, and tropical forests. ✅ At least three sea activities: dolphin swimming in Réunion, a crab boat visit to Betania fishing village in Madagascar, and a glass-bottom boat tour in Seychelles to admire vibrant coral reefs and fish. ✅ Trek through Andasibe National Park to spot wildlife, drive through the baobab avenue at sunset, and explore three Seychelles islands (Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue) in one trip. ✅ Full Chinese-speaking guidance, all inter-island flights included, slow-paced and relaxing vacation with no backtracking. 📅 June 29 – July 19, 2025 (21 days, 19 nights) Seats are limited. Feel free to leave a 💬 or send a 📩 for more details.

1. Visa Application We understand that you can apply for a visa on arrival. The specific fees are as follows: USD 10 for a 15-day visa, USD 37 for a 30-day visa, USD 45 for a 60-day visa, and USD 55 for a 90-day visa. We recommend that travelers choose the appropriate visa duration based on their itinerary to avoid unnecessary trouble and expenses. A tip: Do not follow others' example of applying for a short-term visa and then renewing it, as the process is cumbersome and not cost-effective. 2. Entry and Language The entry process is smooth, and customs officers generally do not ask additional questions. People here mostly speak French. Although there are fewer English speakers, you don't need to worry too much about communication. You can download a French translation app in advance for emergencies. 3. Currency Exchange and SIM Cards Regarding currency exchange, we do not recommend exchanging money at the airport due to poor exchange rates. You can choose to go outside and find a taxi driver to exchange money. For example, on the way to Pegasus Hotel, drivers usually quote MGA 70,000, but the actual price can be bargained down to MGA 30,000–50,000. We finally settled at MGA 40,000. For SIM cards, you can choose to buy a 25 GB data package at an Orange store for about MGA 110,000 (approximately CNY 170). In addition, Airtel Express is also a good choice for price comparison. 4. Accommodation Recommendations 1. Budget: Hotel Moonlight, moderately priced, located near the city center, with a local market nearby, is a cost-effective choice. 2. Mid-range: A L'Hote is located on a hillside, with a nightly rate of about MGA 72,000 (sometimes discounted to MGA 65,000), with a balcony offering a panoramic view of the city. However, please note that the water pressure may occasionally be unstable. 3. Convenient: Jin Hai and Pegasus hotels are run by Chinese owners and offer Chinese food options, suitable for travelers who want a convenient stay. 5. Food Recommendations 1. The dishes at the Chinese restaurants Jin Hai and Pegasus are very delicious and unforgettable, and some tourists even say they want to return to China after eating there. 2. In addition, we also recommend Shaanxi Noodle House Dun Huang, where the dishes are also very good and worth a try. This is a brief travel guide we have prepared for you, and we hope it will be helpful for your trip. In addition, more detailed guides on attractions and nearby activities are being compiled, and we look forward to your continued attention and exploration. Good luck! Note: The above information is for reference only, and specific fees and policies may change over time. Please verify the latest information and plan your itinerary before traveling. Have a nice trip!

Madagascar Trip Day 2. After arriving at Madagascar Airport in the afternoon, we drove to Andasibe in the east. The journey took about 4 hours and it was all S-shaped mountain roads. My sister vomited twice, probably because she had just finished a long-distance flight 😂. The first trip after arriving was a night walk at Voimma Reserve to see lemurs, frogs, stumbles, chameleons, etc. Chameleons are so cute. To be continued.... Day 3 The highlight is to see many unique lemurs

The Lost and Lost Soldier's Trip to Madagascar Key Itinerary Get up early to visit Analamazaotra National Park and Vakona Park for a five-hour walk to see the unique species of lemurs unique to Madagascar He was soft-footed and friendly and very friendly. His sister was still sober at the time. She specifically offered to the administrator that she wanted to see King Julien💗💗💗💗💗 It turns out that we have to pay extra to arrange a boat ride to the other side of the island to see or regret it king Julien jumped on top of our head Super cute 😘😘😘 This day we are very excited 🎉🎉🎉 sharing itinerary to be continued.

Located in the southeastern region of Madagascar near the village of Ranomafana. The Ranomafana National Park is one of the nation’s most popular parks. The eastern section of the park is the most scenic, with numerous streams splashing through densely forested hills. The park is home to the endangered golden bamboo lemur, an animal whose diet includes bamboo shoots that contain doses of cyanide that would be lethal to other animals, yet the charming golden lemur feeds on the bamboo with no ill effects. A local guide is required for visitors entering the park. Guides can be arranged at the park office. A typical excursion would include viewing several species of lemur, gecko, chameleons, and bird species. Typically, tourists exploring the Talatakely forest. Talatakely has well-defined paths and stairs, however, sturdy shoes should be worn as the path can be slippery, especially when wet. If there are special interests, such as birding, specialists can be arranged through Centre ValBio for excursions. Guided tours are not available at nighttime. However, walking alongside the road and looking for eye-shine in the adjacent can typically allow tourists the chance to see mouse lemurs. Kayaking or canoeing can be arranged and a hot springs pool is located in Ranomafana. #zoo#nationalpark

Madagascar ain't for the weak 🫣 but if you can battle the long rough roads, you'll find such friendly locals, amazing Malagasy food and a hugely untouched place in the word 🫶 we personally don't recommend hiring a car and driving it yourself, the roads are honestly too bad! and i would recommend at least 2 weeks to fully explore #travel #naturalwonders #localfood #madagascar #myitinerary #lemur #thingstodo

#April2025 Madagascar is known for its unique biodiversity, especially lemurs and chameleons. I visited Andasibe National Park, hiked in search of lemurs and admired the exotic plants of the rainforest. The local villagers live a simple life and have rich traditional culture. The natural wonders and cultural customs of the Falkland Islands made me feel the unique charm of the African continent.

🌴[Magical Madagascar Tour]🌴—Lemurs dancing on your head, baobab trees striking better poses than you! **📸 Must-see attractions:** 1. **Avenue of the Baobabs** - These chubby, thousand-year-old "sky radishes" (trees: are you being polite?) are stunningly beautiful at sunset! It is recommended to come in the evening. Be careful of lemurs stealing the spotlight when taking pictures. They are local internet celebrities. 2. **Andasibe National Park** - Here, you can hear the magical singing of the Indri lemur (which sounds just like you singing off-key in the shower). Friendly reminder: don't compete with them, you'll lose. 3. **Isalo National Park** - Alien landscape + natural swimming pool. After hiking, jump directly into "God's bathtub" to cool off. Remember to bring a swimsuit, and don't imitate the locals by skinny-dipping (you'll be watched). 4. **Nosy Be** - White sand beach + transparent sea = lazy person's paradise. When snorkeling, sea turtles may roll their eyes at you: "This person swims so badly." **🍌 Foodie radar:** - **King of street food:** - **"Mofogasy" (Madagascar rice cake)** Soft, glutinous, and sweet. You can eat your fill for a dollar. Locals will teach you the correct way to eat it: grab it with your hands. Utensils? They don't exist! - **"Romazava" (national dish stew)** Green leaves stewed with meat and rice. It tastes like your mom's health soup (but more wild). - **Seafood ecstasy:** Just find a barbecue stall in a coastal town. Lobster is so cheap it feels like a crime (an average of CNY 50 will get you all the lobster you can eat. Remember to bargain, and your acting skills must be exaggerated). **🛏️ Poor man's happy house (accommodation recommendations):** - **"Lemur Hostel" (near Andasibe)** CNY 30/night, zero soundproofing, but lemurs will wake you up in the morning (all-natural alarm clock, bad reviews are invalid). - **Beach cabin (Nosy Be)** CNY 100/night, the sea is right outside the door, and crabs may knock on the door in the middle of the night to borrow salt. **🚗 Transportation code words:** - Taxi? No, it's a "carpooling maniac" (it only leaves when it's full, and your legs may have close contact with the chicken coop). - Long-distance buses are called "Taxi-brousse," and they are a little faster than sloths. It is recommended to bring snacks + diapers (not a joke). **💡 Fun fact:** - Locals say "take your time" = wait at least 2 hours. Madagascar time ≈ your watch × 2. - Don't scream when you see a chameleon. They are shyer than you (inner OS: these two-legged beasts are so noisy). ✨**Ultimate advice:** Throw away the travel guide! The essence of Madagascar lies in the waterfalls you encounter when you get lost, the nights you spend dancing awkwardly with the villagers, and—the innocent look on the lemur's face after it steals your snacks. (Settlement method for copywriting fees: please mail me a baobab tree seed, thank you)🌵

Although Antananarivo/Ivato International Airport is not big, I didn’t expect that there would be so many people taking red-eye flights. I was a little scared when I arrived at the airport! Fortunately, the check-in and check-in processes were surprisingly smooth and fast, which saved me a lot of time and gave me time to sit down, rest, and wait for boarding. I arrived at the airport at around 10 pm, when almost all the shops were closed. Fortunately, I had dinner outside first, otherwise I would have had no place to buy anything even if I had money. There are quite a lot of seats, so it's not too difficult to find a place to rest. Someone at the airport was super nice! Because when I first arrived in Madagascar, my luggage was unfortunately lost, he took the initiative to help confirm the status of my luggage and assisted in processing relevant documents. As a result, I met the same ground staff at the airport on the way back. He actually remembered me and chatted with me for a few words. He was really considerate and efficient. Overall, although the airport facilities are not luxurious, the quality of the staff and the efficiency of the process left a good impression, which was a great end to this trip! #AntananarivoAirport #MadagascarAirport #RedeyeFlight #EndofJourney #AirportCharacterExplosion #GroundAngel #LuggageFoundBack #TravelInterlude #AirportDaily #FalklandIslandTravelNotes #MarchGoodPlaces2025

The last thing you want to happen while traveling is getting injured and needing medical treatment. During the trip to Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, my travel companion accidentally sprained his waist and was in so much pain that he could hardly walk, so he had to go to the regional hospital in Morondava for treatment. This hospital is larger than expected, but the overall environment is quite old and the equipment is quite simple, so diagnosis and treatment mainly rely on the doctor's experience. Although the pain was slightly relieved after diagnosis and treatment and he could walk slowly, resources were limited at the time and further examinations were not possible. After returning to Hong Kong and seeking further medical treatment, he discovered that his injuries were actually serious and required a long period of rest and treatment. It is also a reminder: when doing outdoor activities in remote areas, you must be careful and safe, and it is also recommended to prepare basic medical and insurance information during the trip. Although this episode was difficult, it also made us realize the limitations and preciousness of local medical resources, and made us cherish every safe trip even more.

Located on the first row of the coast, Hotel Arc en Ciel is a hotel with a warm atmosphere and a resort feel. We did not stay here this time, but we stopped by to dine and enjoyed the clean environment and friendly service. The restaurant features a spacious semi-outdoor seating area. The dishes are a fusion of Italian and Malagasy flavors, and the taste is ok. In addition to the usual rice, the restaurant also has pizza, so the choices are quite rich.

French cuisine highly recommended on the Internet! Mad Zebu Restaurant is a French-Malagasy fusion restaurant hidden in the remote town of Belo-sur-Tsiribihina, but it serves food comparable to that of a Michelin-starred restaurant. The interior of the restaurant is warm and comfortable, and there is also a spacious open-air balcony for dining. The menu offers set menus or à la carte options and prices are very reasonable for tourists, averaging around €10 per person, which is great value for money. address: Mad Zebu Restaurant 7GWW+FCP, On the march, Belo-sur-Tsiribihina 609, Madagascar #MarchGoodPlaces2025 #MadZebu #MadagascarFood #HiddenRestaurant #ZebuMelafron #FoodOasis #FrenchFusionCooking #SurpriseOnTheTable #BeloSurTsiribihina #MichelinTravel #RestaurantsWorthyOfStop

Walking across this suspension bridge hanging over the stone forest guarantees an instant adrenaline rush! Below the bridge lies the sharp limestone peaks of Tsingy, offering a breathtaking and thrilling view. Every step you take is filled with challenges and surprises. This suspension bridge is one of the highlights of the trails in Tsingy National Park. Walking mid-air and overlooking the stone forest feels like stepping into a magical world. If you're planning to visit this world-class natural wonder, love adventure, and aren't afraid of heights, this bridge is an experience you simply can't miss! Location: Suspension Bridge

After completing the Tsingy adventure, we headed to Camp Manambolo for lunch. The meal was simple, but the steaming hot soup and fresh post-meal fruits provided a perfect conclusion to this journey. Coincidentally, there were no other travelers that day, making the entire space feel like it was reserved just for us. The atmosphere was tranquil and pleasant, offering a great spot to relax and reminisce about the spectacular stone forest scenery we had just experienced. Camp Manambolo VQ2W+4GC, Bekopaka, Madagascar

A visit to the Manambolo River is an unforgettable experience, a slow and leisurely boat ride that will allow you to fully immerse yourself in nature. Walking along the quiet river, the towering cliffs on both sides and the magnificent scenery make you feel like you are in a fairy tale world. On the way, we will stop at two caves where we can see bats, which gives us a full sense of adventure. The river is not only the gateway to the Tsingy de Bemaraha Nature Reserve, but also a great way to gain insight into the local nature and culture. Because there are not many tourists, the whole journey seems more peaceful and private, which is very suitable for travelers who want to escape from the hustle and bustle and experience the original scenery. #3月好去地方2025 #ManamboloRiver #TsingyDeBemaraha #MadagascarTravel #CaveExploration #SlowTravel #NaturalWonder #SecretJourney #OriginalStyle #AdventureJourney #BeautifulScenery

This hotel is very warm and friendly. The meals are all freshly made home-cooked dishes, fresh and delicious, making people feel very satisfied! This is a B&B and also a restaurant! We also met an alligator that they rescued and took care of since it was a puppy. The owner shared its story with us and invited us to touch it, but we were still a little nervous (laughs).

At the ferry port (Port Bac) of Belo sur Tsiribihina, we experienced an unprecedented river crossing adventure! Unlike ordinary modern ports, this place relies entirely on a ferry system operated by human power. If you want your car to cross the river, you must first buy a ticket and queue up. The process is like a battlefield where the first-come-first-served wins. Everything requires the coordination and judgment of the experienced driver. What’s amazing is that the entire river crossing process relies on only one wooden platform to carry several vehicles, and the way to get the vehicles on board is for the staff to manpowerfully carry wooden planks and build a ramp for the vehicles to drive on! Before boarding the ship, all passengers must get off the bus first to avoid potential risks. The whole process was both primitive and efficient, the work team was well-trained and their movements were sharp. It was an unforgettable authentic African experience! #3月好去地方2025 #Madagascar旅行 #BeloSurTsiribihina #AfricaAdventure #FerryExperience #OriginalTransportation #LocalCulture #TravelFun #TravelDiary #Off-roadAdventure #AfricanStyle #MagicalMadagascar #TrafficWonder #RoadTripAfrica

The rooms are spacious and cozy, offering stunning sea views. Falling asleep to the sound of waves at night is truly soothing. The amenities are complete, including towels, hot water, toiletries, air conditioning, and a comfortable bed. Step outside and you're right on the beach—an unbeatable location. Although the building is somewhat old, the Wi-Fi is unstable, and hot water is not always available, the overall experience is still good. Maéva Hotel is considered a mid-range, conveniently located, and friendly lodge in Morondava. Hotel maeva morondava Morondava 401 Madagascar
