Andasibe Mantadia National Park is a large, dense rainforest which is home to many species of lemurs including the famous Indri. The Indri is the largest living lemur and is well known for its unique singing call which can be heard up to one mile away.
It is the closest National Park to the capital city of Madagascar, Antananarivo making it one of the most visited on the island. Due to its location and accessibility, many visitors will come to Andasibe Mantadia National Park and the Analamazaotra Special Reserve for even a one day trip.
How to Get Around Madagascar
For the duration of our time in Madagascar we had our own private driver and guide. We arranged our entire trip through Tanzania and Madagascar with a highly rated company named Piper & Heath. We also used them for our trip through South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana and they are one of the best in the business.
