Morondava tour in September
Hi everyone, 👋🏽
I’m planning a trip to Madagascar from September 10 to September 22 and would like to spend a few days up to 1 week in/around Morondava (mainly to visit the Avenue of the Baobabs), with the rest of the trip spent in Tana.
I'm Malagasy and spent most of my life in Tana before moving abroad, but I never really traveled much around the country. Growing up, I heard a lot of stories about dahalo/insecurity in some regions, so I wanted to ask people who’ve done this trip more recently:
- Is it doable to travel to Morondava for 1 week or less? How many days would you recommend?
- Is September generally a good and safe time to visit that area?
- Would adding Tsingy be realistic within that timeframe, or would it make the trip too rushed?
- Any nearby places worth adding for a short trip?
- Are there any tour guides you’d recommend?
I’m trying to keep the trip relatively balanced since most of the rest of the stay will be spent in Tana with my family.
Thanks!
