    • Luggage And Bags: If you are travelling to Anjajavy you will have to fly in a small plane so soft bags are better than a hard suitcase.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Sturdy walking boots, preferably waterproof are best for Mantadia as the slopes are steep and slippery and it is quite muddy and wet.

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Insect Repellant for Berenty! And burning coils too. Mossies here get in everywhere.

    Photo Equipment: Zoom lense is useful for Perinet (Andasibe Mantadia) as the Indries are up in the trees.


    Miscellaneous: Andasibe Mantadia is very damp. It is difficult to keep your clothes dry. I would have taken sealable plasic bags to prevent clothes I wa not using there from getting damp if I had known it was so damp.
