Ankarana Special Reserve

We, led by nature-loving park guide Jafar and his work, conveyed our respect for nature and told us the story of the reserve. Thanks to him, we saw day and night lemurs, chameleons, gecko and countless species of plants in the park, as well as shell fossils. We finally arrived at Tsingy and suspension bridges to overcome a small kanyon. The endless, silent panoramic view is amazing! Must visit!

The hike in the park is relatively easy and boring, you can see lemurs, snakes and some strange insects if you are lucky. I think it depends entirely on how lucky you are to be the guide, we are not too interested in showing us the details of the dry forest. Tsingy and suspension bridge are definitely the most impressive and worth a visit. Take a lot of water! Even walking in the shadows is hot, let alone the tsingy area. We drank 4 liters in an hour on foot! But, if possible, pay attention and avoid overnight stays in Chez Aurelien . The bungalow is not ventilated and very hot! There is no electricity, so you can't load any equipment. His restaurant's 3-course dishes are definitely not worth the price and can hardly be eaten. The owner is only interested in collecting your money, does not provide any information, arranges follow-up traffic, and is very enthusiastic. We felt like a cash machine, so I lowered my rating by 2 stars.
