Madagascar

It was still closed in last December. It is probably still closed?

Since the topic is being discussed I decided to do a bit of a search of the area and came upon a place called Hotel Pietra. It has some very good recent reviews but I do not recall ever seeing the place walking by. Very near the New Select (whatever happened to that place? Judging by the photos I suspect I am too much of a cheap charlie to stay there! They do not appear to be on any of the booking sites. Anyone stayed and have some idea of price?

1. : Forget it. You can't find a hiv test kit in pharmacy in Madagascar. Bring a lot from home. There are many clinics in Tana, no problem.

2. : Read infos from google, don't ask this question here.)

3. : Yes if the backpack is strong enough.

Hi, I am planning my trip and was wondering.

1. Where to buy cheap, do at home, HIV test in Tana / Noise bay? Or am I better off bringing from home country?

Alternative, where to go for cheap, fast HIV test in Tana?

2. People who go on Prep: any side effects? Where do you get it? How much it cost? How long can you use it for?

3. With regards to money safety, would a backpack with a chain and a lock be a good option? (backpack chained to the bed or other furniture).

Thanks,

Hey, am visiting Tana in the next few days. Any recommendations and numbers available for good young girls that can come to my hotel room? Guidance will be appreciated!

I did RTFF 88 pages back. Problem with this forum is that 'standard' up-to-date prices are not centralized in one place. Even in 6 months then can change a lot, for whatever reasons.

Since you can get full service performed for a lunch for the girl for instant. Up to your skill and motivation and liking and preferences.

Seems you don't want read forum if asking this questions. Here was mentioned many times oficial taxi rate is 70 k from airport to city centre its hassle free. If you want save 20 k walk 100 metres and you can get taxi for.

For 40- 50 k. It was mentioned many times just read forum.

Tripolitsa asks for 70 K for the transfer from the airport. Is it a correct price for a hassle free solution, or is it a total rip off? IF so, what are the hassle free solutions?

Those two are hotels for low end people or no money masters.

Artiste is for restaurant only. Hotel is for old French pensioners who like it dark and dingy. Tripolitsa was ok when it was new several years' ago; it's wearing out fast.

Recommendation: Samsara, and note cash rate in person cheaper than on line.

Cheap Choices: Downtown Hotel (has gym). Hotel Pousse-Pousse.

Thanks for the hint! I'll try when returning from NosyBe.

[NamasteParis]

Yes it is correct for hassle free as you said.

Small increase as In 2022 I paid 60 k but we can't complain as we have more than 20% of inflation in 2 years in France on some goods.

Profites!

Thanks LEA!

Also arriving at Nosy Be, hotel asks for 80 K for airport transfer. Still OK?

[Bienenstich]

Its always no problem to pay more obviously. Lets not forget its definitely possible for lower than 20 k / 40 k st / LT in tana as I did it many times. Am pretty sure in nb as well.

Arguably streetdogs but sweet single mums in my book.

Hi I hesitate between Tripolitsa and Hotel des Artistes. Both look good, and were confirmed by our master Pokeris hahah
Any thoughts, very good or bad experiences on these 2 hotels?.

Thanks for the hints about prices. I can adapt of course, but don't want to spoil the market...

You have other hotels at tana cheaper and girlfriendly in the same area. I tested shanghai (have a nice restaurant and bath tub), LE relais Normand (big room next to the big market where you can find enjoy! Sole (many freelancers waiting for you just outside the hotel).

For prices and location just look on Booking.com.

Of course the two that you mention are a little nearer from " cabaret LE glacier."

Enjoy!
