Antananarivo (called "Tana") is Madagascar's capital — the gateway to the planet's most unique nature. 80% of Madagascar's species are endemic (found nowhere else), lemurs make eye contact in national parks, and the Avenue of the Baobabs is one of the world's most iconic natural sights. The French-Malagasy fusion cuisine will pleasantly surprise.
