How would you explain these random deaths of healthy, young people, Sherlock? African countries, including Madagascar, only had a 6% take-up of the Covid vaccines, compared to 68% in the...

There are some nice AirBnBs in Andohalo district of Tana, 1.3 Km South-East of The Glacier bar / hotel. Cost around $35-50 per night but well-discounted (one-third off) for stays of 28 days and up. ...

True, some drugs, like antibiotics, have saved lives (and also been abused); they stitch us up after accidents and more babies survive difficult human birthing. But, if you look at the vaccine stats,...

The past 2-year scamdemic led me to investigate whether viruses really exist at all. I won't go into Covid here but the following may help those who suffer recurrent labial (mouth) or genital herpes....

The Malagasy health bulletin, in French, of 11th August 2022, clearly states that both testing-on-arrival in Madagascar, and pre-departure testing (within 72 hours prior to arrival from abroad), have...

Madagascar selectively criminalised consensual adult-to-adult prostitution but applied the new law to foreign tourists only. It was underlined by a French TF1-channel documentary in 2008 (links...

Interesting observations. Cambodia is unique in being open to all-comers with US$395 to pay for a year's multiple-entry visa, no questions asked. Annual Thai retirement visas are still easy to get...

V. useful report NmExpert -- thanks for posting. The best resorts (e. G. Dunes, Ifaty) run their generators except for night-time 00.00 - 06.30. Wi-Fi in reception area only. Satellite TV. Limited...

Great report -- tall and shapely is much better -- colour not so important. Actually it's 900 metres from Toliara airport to the main road & the Mangily taxi-brousse station is 2 Km North of centre,...

Our friend with the warm gun is right to be concerned about security in Mada but would find the Philippines far more conducive to a...

Neither the French or Italian language E-Visa 'Apply' buttons currently work either! What a shame they can't get their act together and smooth visitors' passage.

Interesting point about arriving...

Costs €35 - €57 depending on duration of 1, 2 or 3 months.

BUT the 'Apply' link doesn't work! Am I missing something?

Worth having it to avoid the visa...

Easy to carry as 'water purification drops'. Especially useful in places like Africa which have nasty diseases but poor treatment facilities. Uses sodium chlorite and citric acid to produce chlorine...

I should clarify that the costs quoted are for a couple, and are not business fares. The chart is an excellent comparison of economy travel and mid-range hotel costs to 20 world destinations. If you...

Good info, thanks. Where in Diego did you stay and how did you get back to Tana? Mada sounds like the kind of place where you have to move on to another town once the ladies get to know you and...

Has anyone been to Diego Suarez (Antsiranana) in the far north recently?

Advantages: Cheaper than Nosy Be as not aimed at Euro package tourists. Has an eclectic mix of taller black, arab and...

How about a room-share at Madame Florine's in Nosy Be for $7.50 a month?

If you want western-style accommodation in Africa, including Madagascar, it is expensive (even though the people are poor). It is non-standard for the Africans and tourists are relatively few. Thus...

Did anyone think to ask where the majority of Nosy Bé girls come from originally, to go to the source and avoid the island's Euro-cost hotels and potential police scams?

John Palmer, you are a true misanthropic vulgarian with a penchant for picking arguments with and abusing other contributing members here. Your weak command of the English language doesn't help much...

It's called Le Buffet du Jardin (The Garden Buffet - but it's indoors) on Lalana Ratsimilaho near the Colbert & Louvre hotels. Serves food & drink day and night.

My favourite so far is this girl in the pink mini. Looks about 18. Was she available for sex or just a casual beach encounter? Nice, but hardly worth the flight to Morondava if the scene is now a...
