Good night life and selection of restaurants. The city and surroundings are very untidy and the poverty is overwhelming. The main streets seem safe during the day and night. Visit to Andasibe National Park was a lovely break to a 2-week stay in Antananarivo.
Nice place to vit if you don´t want to be just a turist. This place is nice for visitors who wants to see real life, culture and nature. You deside standard and costs but you normally get value for your money.
North of the island is great with small beatiful villages and pristine post card picture beaches. South end is a little crowded with hotels stacked to each other all the way on the coast. A great place for people watching, but it is effectively a city. Also, beaches on the south side are much narrower and are not so nice.
Nice walking along promenade, and evening stroll seems to be a local custom. Good central handicraft market. Pedicabs and tuk tuks made for fun outings. Majunga is cleaner and more laid back than Tana.
Look for the hidden gems, some are a little difficult to find but worth looking for. Papier Antemora, Chez Marcel, Chez Mamy Miniatures, Atelier Corne de Zebu. Sad to see the state of Hotel des Thermes, and it's faded grandeur, and imagine what it would have once been. The same with the old thermal baths. Both still worth a visit. The countryside on the drive to Antsirabe with the terraced market gardens and rice fields are very scenic. The various stalls and villages along the way make for an interesting drive.
I love this town and cannot wait to come back. The food, the people, the liveliness of the town, the natural scenery, beautiful architecture, and history. I honestly could go on and on. You will love it. Visit. It's so easy to get around by walking or Bajaj. And of course you have so many places to do excursions to nearby like Ramena, the Emerald Sea, Bay Sakalave and the 3 Bays, The Red Tsingy, Amber Mountain, etc...! It will be a trip you never forget.
