Political Situation Since October 10

Since October 10, Madagascar has entered a new phase of political organization. The appointment of a new Prime Minister and the formation of a new government have brought a sense of direction and continuity. This transition, while closely monitored, has remained peaceful, contributing to a climate of stability and reassurance for both citizens and visitors.
Authorities have reaffirmed their commitment to maintaining public order and promoting tourism as a key pillar of national development.

The new government’s priorities include fighting impunity, enforcing budgetary austerity, and creating a stable business climate, interim President Michael Randrianirina said at the ceremony.

“Each minister must have concrete results within two months. The absence of results within this period is a sign of failure and could lead to an immediate replacement,” the military leader warned.

After a year of transformation and renewal, Madagascar is once again opening its arms to travelers from around the world. The island’s timeless beauty, warm-hearted people, and unmatched biodiversity continue to make it a must-visit destination in the Indian Ocean.

As we approach the end of 2025, the atmosphere is positive, the skies are clear, and the travel conditions are stable. Whether you plan to explore the lush rainforests, drive through the scenic highlands, or relax on the sandy beaches of Nosy Be, now is truly the time to come to Madagascar.

Tourism Revival: A Promising Year for Madagascar

The tourism flow in 2025 has been encouraging from the start:

• Q1 saw a modest recovery as international flights resumed and early visitors returned to rediscover the island’s charm. 145 000 tourists has been recorded.

• Q2 recorded solid growth, with a noticeable influx of European travelers and eco-tourism enthusiasts exploring national parks and coastal areas. 148 000 tourists has been recorded.

• Q3 confirmed Madagascar’s comeback, thanks to cultural events, improved infrastructure, and better accessibility across regions. 137 000 tourists recorded.

A total of 430 000 visitors recorded in 2025 as stated by the former Ministre of tourism and Artisanat. Which is a positive and historical achievement.

Whereas, the confédération of tourism shows a lower statistics of 248 000 tourists recorded. 

From Antananarivo to Fort-Dauphin, from Tsingy de Bemaraha to Île Sainte-Marie, local operators, guides, and hotels have felt the pulse of a growing tourism revival. The positive momentum is set to continue into the last months of the year.

Air Travel Stability and Growing Accessibility

Flight connections to Madagascar are now steady and reliable.

• International routes from Paris, Johannesburg, Nairobi, and Mauritius operate regularly.

• Domestic flights by Air Madagascar and Tsaradia continue to serve major cities and regional destinations.

• Charter and private flight options have also become available for travelers seeking more flexibility.

This air travel consistency makes planning your next adventure easier than ever.

If you’ve been dreaming of exploring Madagascar’s hidden corners, this is the perfect time to book your trip — flights are stable, and the island is ready to welcome you.

A Smooth End to the Tourism Season

The high season may be coming to a close, but the island’s beauty never takes a break.
As the year winds down, temperatures remain pleasant, landscapes are green, and local communities are preparing for festive events and year-end celebrations.
Many travelers are now opting for late-season trips to enjoy a quieter, more authentic experience — perfect for photography, road trips, and encounters with Madagascar’s unique wildlife.

End of the Tourism Season: Smooth Transition

As the tourism season comes to an end, most regions are wrapping up their busiest months smoothly. Lodges and tour operators have reported good occupancy rates through October, and the general outlook remains positive for the last quarter of the year.
The rainy season ahead will bring fewer travelers, but many are already planning early bookings for 2026.

Bookings on the Rise Again

Tourism operators have confirmed that bookings are back to pre-2024 levels. The confidence among international travelers is growing, and early reservations for 2026 are already being made.
This rebound reflects the resilience of the Malagasy tourism industry — and the deep affection visitors have for the island’s natural and cultural richness.
