I am lazy lately. Why head to Pandora? Around the stadium as soon as the night falls there is at least 30 SWs. Most are regulars. But not all. It pays to check in between 0730 pm and 1000 pm. There is sometimes fresh meet aka semipros looking for a quick buck. They are usually strolling in pairs. Today I pulled a regular slim chica with kinky tattoos and blonde braids for ST. Perfect after dinner at L'Affiche one of my favourite restos in Tamatave. Good extended BBBJ followed by DATY. As I was lazy after the dinner I let her mount me in Cowgirl. Oh what a tight snatch. I busted my nut too soon. I let her go with 40 k AR in her pocket. I could have knocked her down to 30 k. But hey. I am generous tonite. The steak a la minute including salade de tomate and a queens beer set me back 23.500 AR.

Hard to beat. Spent a total of 63500 AR. Including fun. Thats 16! Euros for Dinner incl. Pussy. Hard to beat. But that cheap pussy comes at a price. You got to suffer. Eaten alive by mosquitos. Hunted by peanut sellers, street hawkers, beggars, police on the take. 12 hour Taxi Brousse rides in sweltering heat. Tropical disease. Ya guys. You got to earn Mada.

La Buse.

Anyone know if Malagasycar is operating right now, and running the Ambanja-Majunga route? Can't seem to contact them. Anyone know of other travel options by land (other than the dreaded 20+hour overnight taxibrousse, or flying to Tana.).

Merci, VL.

Premier class doesn't drive that route (April 2019) you can call hotel palma nova I guess.

Taxi Brousse is possible.

From ambanja to Majunga is 50 k Ariary.

From nosy be to ambanja and later Majunga 15 k for ferry and ticket for ambanja to majunga you have to buy at the same counter at nosy be.

Thank you for your advice and recommendations. I have booked all three hotels. A Double Room at Sole Hotel is at MGA 120 k per night, breakfast included. The Soft Room at Sakamanga is offered at €43.00 per night whereas a Double Room at the Lova Hotel is at €40.00 per night, breakfast not included at these two hotels. The Sole Hotel and Sakamanga Hotel have confirmed my booking while the Lova hotel has not replied to my queries regarding their guest policy. One week before my stay I will finalize in which hotel I will stay and which booking I will cancel.

I found a recommendation in another board for LOVA HOTEL. So I guess you can stay there. I would recommend Sole Hotel. Sakamanga Hotel could be a problem with local guests.

It seems that no monger from this forum has stayed at the Lova Hotel. May be I will stay at either the Sole Hotel or Sakamanga Hotel. Cheers.

Ok guys. Here it is for you guys who want to brave the murky waters of malagasy buerocracy.

First advice. Don't do it in Tana. Any provincial capital can do it. Like Tamatave.

You need:

2 Passport pictures.

1 copy of your passport with the ID page.

1 copy of your VOA page in your passport.

1 copy of your return ticket within the maximum 90 days allowed.

You take all the above plus your original passport to:

Below that's Maps. Me reference.

Provincial Government office huge building near the banque national.

Government Office.

Ge0:8 bC0 MP-L-1/ aregion_Atsinanana.

http://ge0.me/8bC0Mp-L-1/Rgion_Atsinanana.

On the ground floor turn right 3rd office on the right its the chef de securite de territoire regionale, control de migration, to get your paperwork sorted and fill out another visa application form. He then issues you a payment slip which you pay in at:

Direction General des Impots in Rue de Commerce in the first floor at Caisse B. There a new timbre visa is fixed and stamped in your passport. The fee is 80.000 AR.

Then you return to LE Chef (if he's there) to have the visa signed and counterstamped and voila. You can spend another 30 days in paradise.

Best time should be Tuesday to Thursday from 0900 to 1100 and 1430 to 1700. The challenge is to meet LE chef when he's actually in the office and in good mood.

Bonne chance.

La Buse.

The recommended cadeau for LE chef who looks splendid in his white tropical uniform and impressive rank insignia which I figure is a LCol is by the way 10 k AR for the hard work of putting his signature on the visa sticker. He told me (hint hint) its very hot today and would like to have a cold beer. Actually he can buy almost three THB grand model.

La Buse.

Who is all set and booked to the hot west.

Morandave.

[Tinte]

I booked the firts 3 nights there including airport shutel at "reasonable" price.

It's well located to the major attraction of Tana and the rest we will find out.

I will be visiting Tana soon. I haven't seen any report on Lova Hotel. So, was wondering whether anyone has stayed at this hotel which is near to Select Hotel and could provide any feedback on their guest policy.

Good to know that LE Pandora is open again. It was THE DISCO but then closed for a year when I was there last time. Assume that by closing TaxiBe now all the chicks move back there. Is it open every night or only at weekends (as it was before)?

If anyone wants to avoid the long tuk-tuk ride to town, stay at the Ocean 501 Hotel: http://www.ocean501.biz. Its in walking distance at the beach. Nice rooms, good food and a reasonable clean beach in front.

Pandora open every day except Monday for business. All the WGs heading there after 11 pm. Except the SWs around the stadium. Took a number of a sweet SW 19 years. Tuktuk actually not long ride from town. Budget 10k coming and going to centre ville. plus 5k for each drink. you can have a blast for the outlay of 30k... 7.50€... and then pull a sweet chica for 50k... 12.50€....
If that's not Paradise I don't know if it exists...

And then LE Pandora. Wow I looove that joint. Beer is 5000 AR. No entrance. The place is huge. There is 2 big halls with a big dance floor and the usual mirror wall where a number of hot gazy chicas gyrate on high heels.

Tamatave rocks. My tight tiny spinner from the pirate island just left. Her sexual energy left me not knackered but I get younger and refreshed by the day. Notwithstanding what other posters with 6 posts of no substance whatsoever about Mada to their credit babbling about potholes....

Yes. Its the typical mada town. Open overflowing stinking sewers. Almost no working street lights. Obnoxious touts. Street hawkers. Aggressive beggars. Cheating tuktuk drivers. Crumbling art deco buildings slowly eaten away by the humidity.

Do I love it. You bet. The best and driest and most pleasant months are September to November. Almost no rain except some drizzle now and then. And I prefer not to sweat while shagging.

Now the good parts.

There is loads of excellent eateries for a song. Chinese. Indian. Gasy gargottes. Cebu steak. Fish. Chicken brochettes. You can eat yourself through for weeks on end. A number of boulangeries where you can enjoy your morning coffee. There is a number of gyms with good cardio equipment. There is Olympic size swimming pools. Some brand new luxury apartment buildings are going up. Good 4 G coverage throughout. A wide range of lodgings from run down mosquito infested 30 k all the way up to luxury are available. 60 k a day gives you a decent accommodation.

And. The girls. There is loads of stunners roaming the streets doing their shopping or stroll in pairs in the evening. All over from the East coast. I had a number of real stunners from Ste. Marie. Must be the pirate heritage of the 150 or so original families. And the boites. I love Sarkis and Queens for warm up.

Then its 11 pm off to LE Pandora. Took a tuktuk with my wing man for 5 k. Whizzing past la police checkpoint which were busy checking cars. Who suspects 2 vazaha in a tuktuk. And then LE Pandora. Wow I looove that joint. Beer is 5000 AR. No entrance. The place is huge. There is 2 big halls with a big dance floor and the usual mirror wall where a number of hot gazy chicas gyrate on high heels. The place is bustling with gasy playboys, vazaha expats, high rolling wheeling dealers with fat gold chains and full bottle of Red Label in front of them. First the Dj plays disco mix. At 0100 he turns on the heat gasy disco is on. Its brillant. I hit the dance floor. I always select girls from the dance floor. There is this hot tiny spinner on high heels moving her nice ass in front of the mirror wall. She has thin braids down to the ass. Paradise. She sees me moving up from behind and voila. Target lock on. She snugs herself tight up to me and we hit it off. Getting high on music. Then we move to a quiet corner and make out like 2 teenagers in love. Deep tongue kissing. She's red hot. It's 0200 am. Time to bed her. Took another tuktuk. Don't worry about la police. The checkpoint is gone at that time. Same in Tana. So nothing to worry. I spare you the graphic description of the rest of night. Only as much. Pussy as much as you are able to handle.

La Buse

Getting a hot shower and then off to breakfast.

Below new gasy hit. Wendy...

Even though prices are slowly edging up I too enjoy the food options in Tamatave, at least until you have tried them all 10 times! I also second the burger recommendation. Cheaper than most in the country, well cooked and huge. Only thing I did not like was the oversize bun. Way too much bread. As for fresh, why would you assume that a country practically covered in Zebu not be able to deliver beef that is not going to make you ill? You give up Zebu you give up a third of your diet. I like seafood as much as the next guy but I'll be damned if I give up beef over the small chance it will make me ill.

SE.

Personnally the closure of Taxibe isn't a big loss. No need to wait for the night to find a girl here. Never found Tamatave appealing anyway except for the girls if they stay cheap. Roads are full of potholes. Rain most of the time.

60 k for the night is more than what I would pay in Tana. 40 k without negotiating is regular price. Even 30 k is possible.

As for the burger I would give it a miss. The only fresh thing is the fish here if it comes from far because on the seashore the water is really dirty. At least in Majunga you can swim. Here you have to go at least to Mahambo to get something decent.
