Alternatively, make local arrangements via the Marojejy Guides Association. Its members are certified by Madagascar National Parks. Dealing directly with the local guides can offer the best value for both visitors and the guides. Most of the guides, all of the porters, cooks, forest guards and workers maintaining the trail are from the local communities. Employment for forest staff helps preserve the park's environment in that the local communities come to depend more on tourism than farming alone since they can profit only when the forest is maintained by respecting the park's boundaries and avoiding overusing its natural resources by clearing land in and around the forested area for farming.

Visiting the park fosters a mutually beneficial relationship between nature and the local communities.
