To See
Parc National d’Andasibe-Mantadia (Perinet), Nosy Mangabe, Masoala Peninsula, lemurs!
Notes
- Antananarivo – Madagascar’s capital city is noisy, dirty and shockingly poor.
- Toamasina – We drove from Tana to Toamasina through Perinet Reserve, stopping at the Centre d'`elevage et de reproduction, Marozeco Farm (roadside "zoo") and the Reserve Vakona, a private park on the grounds of my lodging. In Perinet we hiked through the dense forest looking in the treetops for lemurs.
- Maroantsetra – I stayed in the wonderful Relias du Masoala across the bay from Nosy Mangabe. There were no other guests! I had guided hikes on Nosy Mangabe and Masoala National Park, via boat rides.
