Best Time for the Madagascar's RN7
Sweet spot: May, June, July — computed from NASA POWER climate normals across the route's overnight towns, balancing temperature, rainfall and daylight.
The dry season is the travel season — lemur forests are accessible and the RN7 stays sound.
Cyclone season: washouts happen and some parks shut — most travelers wait for April.
