Is Parc National d'Ankarafantsika worth the effort?

by lambje Online Now Feb 13, 2012 at 10:41 AM

Hello, Following my previous question, I hope anyone can advice me on this. During our 5-week trip, we will visit Andasibe-Mantadia, Ranomafana, Isalo, Masoala & Nosy Mangabe. We also want to go to the North to visit Parc National d'Ankarafantsika and/or Ankarana Reserve. My questions are: 1. If we had to choose, would Parc National d'Ankarafantsika be worth to go to as well (compared to the parks we'll already visit), or if it would be better to add Ankarana Reserve (with the Tsingy)? 2. Is it possible to reach Ankaranantsika with public transport from Tana? Could we do that in one day? 3. Is it possible to travel from Ankarafantsika further to Ankarana and then to Nosy Be with public transport? If so, how long would that take? 4. Or: would you advice to skip Ankarafantsika, and fly to Diego Suarez/Antsirana and travel downwards via Ankarana to Nosy Be? I hope anyone can help me. Thanks in advance!

    Hello,I can advice you about your planing trip in Madagascar.5 weeks is ok and you can visit many park including rain forest and dry forest.I f you want to go to Ankarafantsika , more sure is take special car when you want to continue to Ankarana tsingy then diego by 4x4.By public transport is more probleme for visitor and nothing to visit.When you have special car, everything is going well, even you visit along the way is no problem and you can go to Nosy Be and car waiting for in Ankify then you take boat to Nosy Be go and return then continue again to Ankarana reserve. If you wold like more information you can contact when you interesting . best wishes dulsen44w
