Great resource

I liked the information in the book. Would have enjoyed it more if it would have included more pictures in both black & white and color as well as more information about the wildlife and cuisine native to the country.

A great find for anyone interested in Madagascar

Not many guidebooks venture into both Madagascar AND the Comoros, and I was glad to find one that did - and was even happier to find a "Lonely Planet" guide. Always complete, easy to read, and helpful, this guide is no exception to their standards. Although I haven't travelled to Madagascar yet, this book seems to give quite an honest assesment of travel conditions (not always the best/unpredictible) which I really appreciated. For the 4th largest island, Madagascar doesn't have enough information about it out there - I was glad to find this book, and am secure that it is a reliable source.
