Frequently Asked Questions About Madagascar

Some information that may help you.

For foreign nationals, a valid passport is required. Some countries may also require a visa; check specific requirements according to your nationality.

The dry season, from April to October, is generally considered the best time to visit Madagascar due to milder weather and less muddy roads.

Madagascar is generally safe for travelers, but it’s recommended to remain vigilant, especially in urban areas, and take normal safety precautions such as safeguarding your valuables and avoiding poorly lit areas at night.

Malagasy and French are the official languages. In tourist areas, you’ll often find people speaking English as well.

Recommended vaccines include those against yellow fever, hepatitis A and B, typhoid, measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), and rabies, depending on your doctor’s recommendations and vaccination history.

Transportation options include taxi-brousses (minibusses), taxis, rental cars, domestic flights, and pirogues (canoes) in certain coastal regions.

It’s best to drink bottled water to avoid gastrointestinal issues. Ensure that bottles are properly sealed.

Among the most famous attractions are Isalo National Park, Avenue of the Baobabs, Ranomafana National Park, Nosy Be Island, Andasibe-Mantadia National Park (for lemur sightings), and of course, nature reserves to observe Madagascar’s unique wildlife and flora.

Yes, it’s highly recommended to bring mosquito repellent and long-sleeved clothing to protect against diseases such as malaria.

The official currency is the Malagasy Ariary (MGA). Make sure to exchange your money at official exchange bureaus for a fair exchange rate.

Street food can be delicious, but make sure to choose vendors who appear to have good hygiene and whose food is freshly prepared. Use your judgment and avoid foods that seem to have been exposed for long periods.

Healthcare varies by region, but in major cities, there are hospitals and clinics that offer basic services. It’s recommended to have travel insurance that covers medical expenses abroad.

Make copies of your important documents such as your passport, visa, airline tickets, etc., and keep them in a separate safe place from the originals. You may also consider using a money belt to keep your valuables close to you.

Credit cards are accepted in major hotels, restaurants, and shops in major cities, but they may not be widely accepted in rural areas. It’s recommended to have cash for purchases in more remote areas.

Yes, price negotiation is common in markets and small shops. However, be respectful and negotiate fairly.

You can explore local markets, take boat excursions for snorkeling or scuba diving, visit traditional villages to experience authentic Malagasy culture, or go hiking in mountainous regions.

Some urban areas may be more prone to crime, so it’s recommended to inquire locally about places to avoid. Generally, rural areas are considered safer.

You can take domestic flights to move between major islands such as Nosy Be, Nosy Boraha (Sainte-Marie), and others, or use ferries for shorter trips between neighboring islands.

It’s important to show respect for Malagasy culture by greeting elders, avoiding wearing revealing clothing in rural areas, and asking permission before taking photos of people. We also recommend that you always ask your guide, as taboos vary from region to region in Madagascar.

You can support local conservation initiatives by choosing eco-friendly tour operators, avoiding purchasing products made from threatened resources, and reducing your water and energy footprint during your stay.

Hello Mirana, I hope you have returned home safely and in good health. The Vivy Travel team thanks you for your trust and for choosing our services. We hope to see you again soon.

A wonderful way to see the capital…

A wonderful way to see the capital city! We were picked up in a very nice truck and even got water bottles provided for us! Our driver was so kind and helpful in every way pointing out tidbits of Madagascar history along the way! Lemur park is a must do and definitely one of my favorite experiences so far. The rest of the day was wonderful!! Our guides at the lemur park, photo museum, and queens palace were also exceptional! A huge thank you to Vivy travel and especially our driver for making our trip so wonderful!!!

Madagascar in other perspective

This was the best trip I have ever made, Madagascar a beautiful island. Vivy Travel agency was at its best during my holiday, we went all around the country. Seen all the touristic sites was very wonderful, the staff of the agency was working very well and hard to make the client in lack of nothing. They are good at talking, especially sharing their culture and their knowledge.

Travelling to madagascar with a fresh perspective :.

At Greeny, we understand the importance of sustainable travel. Over the years, we have worked closely with local people, village associations, rights organisations and travel agencies to offer you trips that are far removed from the usual itineraries, that encourage encounters, discoveries and cultural exchanges, such as camping in the open air, minimising car journeys and staying with local people to develop the local economy. Part of our profits are donated to organisations working to protect and conserve the environment, as well as to humanitarian associations. We also support sustainable projects.
