this is a great place to see Lemurs' up close. it's not to far out of town and well worth the trip. on our way back to the city we stopped along the road side and bought roasted corn from the local villagers and what we are calling Malagsy tamales. they were both really good!

This is very good if you can't get to see the lemurs in the wild, which is always the best way. There is not much in the shop but they do take Euro.

good fun, a great way to see a few furry beasties, but in no way a substitute for the real jungles and parks. If you have no time or can't handle roughing it out of the capital then this is for you. I recommend it to anyone. My only concern is the pestering of some of the animals in order... More

A great place to see lemers. The area is small and easily walked with a terrific variety of lemers close at hand. Our staff guide was very knowledgable and had excellent English.The animals are in natural surroundings, not cages, habituated to people and will come close to visitors. The grounds are attractive and interesting. We thought that this was much,... More

I hate zoos and this was not like a zoo. The animals are encouraged to come out so you can see them along the way, but they are otherwise free to roam about. We saw 8 varieties of lemurs, and most of them very up close. They are really cool! Our guide spoke great english and was very interesting. I... More

The lemurs are very interesting creatures. You get to seem them fairly up close. The park is also a botanical garden. They have a large variety of Malagasy flora planted there.

Lemurs are cute, the staff is professional and helpful, the place is nice, you also have a wide range of plants (baobabs too), what else do you need? Disadvantage : it's one hour drive from Tana. But... that's good to see the animals in 'real' nature!

It's only about an hour away from Tana so it's easier to get to than the other bigger parks. We had an excellent English speaking guide (Becel) and we saw plenty of lemurs. The park is well maintained, but small - an hour or two is all you need for the visit.

You might wish that you could see lemurs at random, but you cannot. Go to the Lemur Park, where you will have an excellent, knowledgeable guide. You will see 9 species up close, but free. Worth the price, and you must see lemurs if you go to Madagascar.

Lemur's Park is one of the best place we saw in Madagascar. They have nine species of this incredible, endemic animal living there freely in natural habitat. Park is 4 hectares big. Nearby river makes a natural border on the one side and stone wall closes area on the other. Lemurs are not afraid of the people so you can... More
