The Best Reasons to Visit Madagascar
Located in the Indian Ocean, Madagascar is a small jewel. This island nation is where Mother Nature seems to have let her imagination go wild. No visitor to Madagascar can remain untouched by the rich bounty of plants and animals. They seem to have evolved uniquely into some of the most unusual wildlife on the planet.
Parc National de L'Isalo
Located in the Toliary region, southwest of Antananarivo, Parc National de L'Isalo has sandstone structures that date back to the Jurassic era. This national park has deep canyons, open grassland, fire-resistant forests. All this makes it one of the most stunning places in the region. It is perfect for hiking through the canyons.
The flora and wildlife is also nothing short of spectacular. The park hosts no less than 14 lemur species, 33 reptiles and 82 bird species. Some of these species are unique to this region and can be found nowhere else on the planet. Here you will find riparian forests along rivers, fire resistant Tapia and Heza forests. Be sure to book a guide and get on the trail. It can take anything from a day to seven days. However, it will be well worth it.
Ranomafana National Park
Meaning hot water in Malagasy, the Ranomafana National Park is perhaps one the most spectacular forests on this planet. It has an overwhelming range of wildlife species. It has 12 species of lemur, including the golden bamboo lemur. There are at least 115 catalogues species in these forests of which 30 are endemic to this region.
This is a rain forest and the wildlife is not just the sole attractions. Ranomafana National Park is almost like a magical forest straight out of a children's book. There are medicinal trees, rare plants, and even carnivorous plants. It also has many species of orchids and palm trees. The forest is bisected in many areas by small streams, ending in the Namorona River.
Andasibe and Mantadia National Park
Originally part of the same forest, the Andasibe and Mantadia National Park is now divided into two different forests. The former is close to Andasibe village while the latter is a much larger national park. These are dense humid forests and full of some of the most unusual plant life on the planet. The forests are covered with moss, lians, ferns, and orchids. There are also some precious and rare trees here.
Whatever you do, you cannot miss the Indri's call. Indris are the largest lemurs, with heights reaching up to a meter. Their peculiar cry can be heard all around the park. What makes this national park the best place to spot them are a couple of families that are habituated to the presence of humans. Apart from them there are 13 other lemur species. In addition, the Park has some 100 bird species like the Madagascar Wagtail and 15 mammal species. Do try to spot the reptiles. There are some 50 species here, including the island's biggest chameleon and the leaf-tailed geckos.
You can go on the many trails that go through the forest to spot its unique wildlife. These often include many of the holy places of the ancient residents of these forests.
Madagascar is like a giant playground where nature has experimented in leisure. There are many unique species of plants, mammals, reptiles, and birds on this island. A visit to its many national parks is a must for any trip to this stunning island.

Madagascar
Madagascar has been isolated from the African land mass for over 165 million years and from that time on its flora and fauna evolved independently. The island has an international reputation as a wilderness tourism destination and an ecotourism destination that focuses on lemurs, birds and orchids. Over half of the breeding birds on the island are indigenous. Other indigenous species include red bellied lemur, aye and indri (the largest lemur species).
The Analamazoatra Reserve (sometimes called Périnet), four hours distant from the capital, is one of the greatest areas to see the indri.
The presence of the indri helped turn the Analamazoatra Reserve into one of the most important tourist attractions in Madagascar.
The country has historic sites, especially in the capital, such as the Royal palace or Rova in Antananarivo or the neighboring sacred hill Ambohimanga, both of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The main route from Antananrivo to Tulear, in the south, passes through a number of towns known for their artisan work: Ambatolampy, Antsirabé, Ambositra and Fianarantsoa.

Manakara to Fianarantsoa Train Journey, Madagascar, Africa
On vacation in madagascar I took the train between Manakara and Fianarantsoa. In this video you can see the beautiful scenery and the local people. There were only 9 tourists on the train. I ride in the Firstclass, goodwagon, locomotive, on front of the locomotive and on the flatbed.
The train needed 13 hours for the 163km track. The track is very old and not straight. The locomotive is an Alsthom AD16B with a 1600hp V16 diesel engine.
Everything is worn out and this is the last locomotive on that track and they started with 6 of them. The train is very essential for the area to get the goods to the market. There are not much decent roads in the area. So the train is a lifeline.

Roadtrip Madagascar : From Fianarantsoa City to Alakamisy Ambohimaha
MADAGASCAR Trains, People and Jungles... Fianarantsoa - Manakara Railway Line
Following the Tropic of Capricorn through the jungles of Madagascar you are watching one of the World's Great Train Journeys. This metric railway line - 1000mm gauge - was built by the French colonial administration between 1926 and 1936 to open up the east coast and facilitate the export of agricultural products from this fertile region. The tracks were imported from Germany, the carriages from Switzerland. The French used rails and ties taken from Germany as World War I reparations to build the line. Many parts of the railway still have the date of manufacturing on them dating back to 1893.
This video raw footage compilation covers the first 9 hours daylight trip (of total 16 hrs that day) i.e. from the train departure at 08 am to 17 pm arrival time in a remote village.
One could argue that taking 12 to 24 hours to cover the 163km between Madagascar’s highlands and its Indian Ocean coast is a rather slow and inefficient way to travel. It is, but that's the point. Travelling on the Fianarantsoa-Côte Est (FCE) railway, the world's third steepest railway incline, isn’t really about getting from A to B – It’s about The Journey!!!...
The train travels between the towns of Fianarantsoa in the highlands (elevation 1100m) and Manakara on the coast. The gradient of the line partly explains its slow going – the constant breakdowns and heavy cargo are the real issue. The train crosses areas not accessible by road, so it is a lifeline for local communities who use it to trade and travel. It is this amazing spectacle – the road-less landscapes and the loading/unloading theatrics at every station, 18 in total – that make the journey so special.
This kind of slow and unpredictable travel isn’t for everyone. It’s either your idea of an authentic experience, or your worst nightmare in your carefully planned two-week holiday.

» THE TRAIN
????The Fianarantsoa-Côte Est (FCE) railway is the train that runs from Madagascar’s highland city of Fianarantsoa to the coastal city of Manakara. It was built between 1926 and 1936 by the French colonial administration as an effort to open the east coast and create a means of transporting agricultural products.
Today, the train acts as a lifeline for local communities that aren’t accessible by road. A lack of upkeep since the 1960s has resulted in the train regularly breaking down, causing delays and even de-railings. Patient travelers looking for an opportunity to see arguably the most scenic parts of Madagascar as well as local life at each stop along the way will find this 12-24++ (yes, you read that right) hour journey unlike anything they’ve experienced before. Plus, you can sample local flavors at each stop.
????TRAIN PRICE: 4.54 USD/16,000 MGA for 2nd class | 11.35 USD/40,000 MGA for 1st class
