No photographs are required, however please ensure that passports are valid for at least 6 months after return date. In addition to the entry visa, the Malagasy government is proposing the introduction of a frontier levy of 10 € in the near future, still to be confirmed and variable at short notice.

Gratuities: If you feel you have been looked after well by your crew or guides, and you wish to show your appreciation for their services, a monetary tip is very welcomed by those in Madagascar. Here follows some suggested guidelines:

Around EUR 4 per person, per day (10,000 Ariary) for a guide or a guide/driver.
Around EUR 2 (5,000 Ariary) for a park guide, depending on your satisfaction
Around 5% of the bill at a restaurant
200 Ariary per bag for a porter
As Euro coins cannot be changed into local money in Madagascar, it is advisable to tip in Ariary

We would ask that you please reserve your generosity for tipping for services only, and not providing free hand-outs to children or adults, as this encourages begging.
