Before You Travel to Madagascar

Make sure you have everything in order before your departure. Check if you need any vaccinations, as malaria is common in many areas. The local currency is the Malagasy Ariary, so carry cash since cards may not work outside cities. You can buy affordable SIM cards at the airport, but check roaming charges with your provider. Also, get travel insurance to cover medical emergencies during your trip.
