When Is the Best Time To Visit Madagascar?

The answer to the question of what is the best month to visit Madagascar depends on what you are interested in doing during your stay. Here you can see an overview of each month and its typical weather conditions.

Tourist Season in Madagascar

It's best to visit Madagascar in July, August, September and October - that's when you can count on very good weather all over the country.

Also, choosing months such as April, May, June and November is a good time to travel, but sometimes there may be weather conditions that make the visit difficult. We can expect worse weather in January, February, March and also in December, although the journey is possible, this is not the best time. The weather can then be very unpredictable, with a tendency to be bad.
