3 out of 5 stars Stick with the Bradt guide   November 13, 2006

I don't regret buying this because there aren't too many guides to Madagascar. But there is simply no personality to this book. If you are looking for some names/addresses, this would suffice. Otherwise, the Bradt guide blows this Lonely Planet guide away.

Great book - detailed and very informative.

Recommend for anyone going to Madagascar as backpacker or on guided tour



2 out of 5 stars A bit outdated   January 7, 2007

We used this guide, along with 2 other guides of Madagascar and we found this guide to be the least valuable of the 3 (a bit outdated, not into depth)


2 out of 5 stars You can do better.   September 19, 2008

My husband and I bought this book a couple of years ago, as we were going to Madagascar with the Peace Corps. When we got to Madagascar, we realized that everyone else had bought the Bradt guide, which is far superior to this book. We ended up using an old copy of the Bradt guide whenever we were travelling around the country, because this Lonely Planet didn't get us very far. If you are planning to get off the main tourist routes, this book is all but useless.
So, you might want to check out your other options before you buy this.
