Isalo NP, Ranomafana NP or Andasibe NP

Hello.

Because we don’t have enough time we need to skip either Isalo NP or Andasibe NP and I don’t know how to decide…

We are interested in nature and wildlife, the suggested route now is:

1.) antsirabe - ranomfana

2.) ranomafana and anja reserve full day

3.) ranomafana - antsirabe

4.) antsirabe - tana

5.) tana - andasibe

Or

We skup andasibe altogether and make our way down to Isalo… then back again.

Thanks for your suggestion!

1. Re: Isalo NP, Ranomafana NP or Andasibe NP

Antsirabe to Ranomafana is a 7-hour (ish) drive

Ranomafana really deserves at least a half day to visit the park

Ranomafana to Anja Park is around a 3-hour drive

What I am trying to say is that you can't really do Ranomafana and Anja in one day and be back in Ranomafana. You could I suppose in theory drive to Ranomafana and then do a rapid ninja attack approach, visit Ranomafana as soon as it opens it's gates at 0800 for two hours, drive to Anja, have lunch there and visit the park for two hours, and return to sleep in Fianarantsoa that night and transfer from Fianarantsoa to Tana the next day (maybe 10 hours drive).
