[[File:Ivato International Airport 002.jpg|600px]] [[File:Ivato International Airport 004.jpg|600px]] [[File:Ivato International Airport 005.jpg|600px]] == Visa == A [[visa]] can be obtained directly on arrival at Ivato International Aiport. == Money exchange and Internet access == There is one currency exchange service by the exit inside the international terminal and another by the exit inside the domestic terminal. Alternatively, for good exchange rates in the city, go to [[NCH]]. == Restaurants == Good food can be found in both the domestic and International terminal but not inside the flight departure area after check-in. Alternatively, an outdoors restaurant can be found opposite the parking lot, close to the petrol station, as well as a restaurant and cafe directly at the petrol station. For those with three or more hours between connecting flights, a visit to the [[Croc Farm]] in a park on the other side of the runway is recommended. There is a good restaurant, which even has crocodile burgers on the menu! Alternatively, for a somewhat more authentic Malagasy ''[[hotely]]'' experience, stop by [[Mitsinjo Box]], shortly before the road turns left into Croc Farm. A taxi to Croc Farm takes between 10 and 15 minutes. A highly recommended lunch and dinner restaurant at the first cross road about 1km from Ivato in the direction of Tana is [[Mo Cafe|Mo Café]]. Mo Cafe is also a popular bar during evenings. == Local area map == [[File:Ivato International Airport 003.jpg|600px]] == Additional information Accommodation == * [http://www.reservations.mg/contact-hotel-island-continent-hotel-ivato-tananarive-madagascar.html Island Continent Hotel Ivato]* [[Manoir Rouge]] == Nearby == * [[Croc Farm]]* [[La Ferme d'Ivato]]* [[Domaine du Lac]]* [[Ivato Airport Viewpoint]]* [http://www.cheval-madagascar.com www.cheval-madagascar.com]* [[Ivato Conference Center]] == Various == * [[Assist Aviation]]* [[Ravinala Airports]]* [http://www.adema.mg/index.php?page=aeroport_antananarivoADEMA - Aeroports de Madagascar] == Transport to/from the airport == * <strike>[[ADEMA shuttle bus]] - leaves to/from [[Antananarivo]] to coincide with all local and International flight departures and arrivals.
