Antsiranana Walking Tour
Antsiranana, Madagascar
Why Walk Antsiranana
Antsiranana — also known as Diego Suarez — sits on a massive natural harbor, one of the largest in the world, on Madagascar's northern tip. The city has a Franco-Malagasy colonial atmosphere with wide boulevards and a lively market. Nearby, the Montagne d'Ambre National Park holds pristine rainforest, and the Red Tsingy are surreal eroded limestone formations in vivid red and orange.
