5SOBEHA TOUR 5:00 PM Oct 2, 2021
Masoala, you will enjoy it for sure!
Masoala National Park is accessible from Maroantsetra and from Antalaha. The most practical way is from Maroantsetra and stay in the bay of Antongil where the sea is calmer. Think about travelling by high lifted 4x4 from Antananarivo to Maroantsetra if you are looking for very unique adventure that you should do once in your lifetime. From Soanierana Ivongo to Maroantsetra, you will travel along an extremely difficult road with maximum speed of 100Km in one day. Sometimes, depending to the season, you will do only 50Km in one day. Most of people opt for easy way : transfer by boat from Maroantsetra to Masoala with a visit of one-two days in Masoala. Then, back to Maroantsetra by boat with stop in Nosy Mangabe. It is possible to do a full tour trek of Masoala Peninsula : it can starts from Maroantsetra but we recommend to reach Ambanizana by boat and walk from there. The second trek across Masoala is a three days trek from Maroantsetra to Antalaha. This is shorter but there is a smaller chance to see animals due to the deforestation. Some guides are able to connect the two itineraries depending to your length of stay. It requires a good knowledge of the trail to be negotiated at the national park with the guide before your departure Remember that Masoala is much better than Andasibe National Park. You will enjoy much more wildlife and it is different experience too!

Thanks Lauriot to make it unforgettable again!
After the COVID break, my husband and I decided to go back to Madagascar, where we had already been in 2016. It was clear for us from the beginning that our priority was to spend at least one week in the Masoala National Park. We contacted Lauriot from Visit Masoala ([email protected]), who helped us once more organise the trip. While in 2016 we spent our time in a lodge, this time we decided to hike from Cap Masoala to Maroantsetra. It was just amazing, beautiful, untouched, remote, full of life... Memories that we will keep forever. Lauriot organised the transportation, the accommodation, the cook and the delicious food, porters... Unforgettable experience that we can just recommend.
