Upon arrival, you'll find several car rental agencies located at the airport, providing you with a wide range of vehicles to choose from.

Accessibility and Route information
From the airport, it’s a relatively straight route to the capital city Antananarivo. Depending on traffic, the trip can take between 30 and 50 minutes. Please be aware that driving in Madagascar can be challenging due to road conditions and driving habits, so always stay alert and drive with care.
