Northern Madagascar<\/h2>\n

Northern Madagascar brings together everything that makes this island so special: wildlife, rainforests, lagoons, beautiful beaches, and of course, those iconic baobab trees.<\/h4>\n

This region is also home to cocoa plantations, ylang-ylang trees, and scenic drives with hardly another tourist in sight. Road conditions have improved in recent years, making it easier than ever to explore at your own pace.<\/h4>\n

We\u2019ve selected a range of small-scale, characterful hotels that offer good value and a warm welcome. The list below follows the route north from Ivato (Tana) – ideal for road trippers.<\/h4>\n

    Where to stay in Maevatanana<\/h2> \t

    Maevatanana is a practical stopover to break the long journey from Ivato (Tana) to Ankarafantsika. It\u2019s a hot, bustling town with few frills, but a good place to rest before continuing north.<\/p>\n
