Best madagascar travel guides according to redditors

I lived there for a while and you can do it for dirt cheap (once you're there) if you are willing to stay in cheap hotels and travel by car! Although as OP pointed out, the roads are terrible and going to the local hotels and eateries can be intimidating as a foreigner. We typically stayed in hotels that cost about $5-10/night (some of them pretty cool, like beach huts), and average meal cost was about $1 for Malagasy food or $5-10 for something fancy. The Bradt guide was our bible for travel planning.
