  4. EPISODE 4

    Masoala

    OK so a lot of people ask us about Masoala and we want to send you there.  It is with no doubt one of the most spectacular places in Madagascar and a total immersion in wildlife.  We tend to try to send people to Masoala Forest Lodge because it is a highly superior experience, compared to anywhere else in the region, and, it is a superior experience compared to just about anything available in Madagascar.  It is however camping (in luxury tents) and, it is not inexpensive.  But we encourage you to consider it, we know you will love it and we hope you will choose Masoala Forest Lodge.  There is a less expensive option, and we will talk about that option in another episode on another day, or, if you are convinced that you really just have to visit Masoala, please just be in touch with us and we will arrange your Masoala adventure either by private charter to the Masoala Forest Lodge, or by a commercial flight with Madagascar Airlines staying at another hotel.  Please note that if you choose to go with Madagascar Airlines, you have to stay one week, because the flights are only once per week.   Thanks and thanks for being patient with me... I know my publishing schedule is slow...   Next episode, we are going to talk all about Andasibe Mantadia, the most popular destination in Madagascar.

    Andasibe

    This episode gives you the ins and outs of visiting the amazing Andasibe area of Madagascar with some tips on hotels, which parks to visit, what you will see there, and our recommendations about the area. We love Andasibe and even if you are only in Madagascar for a couple of days, this is the one area that we recommend that you visit.  If you are on an extended tour of the country, do not miss to add Andasibe to your itinerary... My episodes are becoming less and less frequent I am sorry, and, they are becoming less and less edited, so, you have to excuse my ummmms and ahhhhhhs as I quite brutally record these podcast episodes whenever I get a moment and publish them without much polish...  Support the show Dadamanga Facebook Dadamanga Instagram Dadamanga Website Dadamanga TikTok Please note that all mention of foreign currency in this podcast refers to the three main currencies accepted in Madagascar, namely Euro, US Dollars and Pounds Sterling.
