Ivato International Airport (TNR)

Getting Around

How to get to and from Ivato International Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.

Transport Options at TNR

Ivato International Airport is connected to Antananarivo and the wider Madagascar transport network by multiple ground transport options.

Bus & Shuttle

A shuttle van reportedly runs between the airport and the Isoraka/Analakely hotel district roughly every 30–45 minutes from 5am to 8pm, though the fare figure in circulation is from an older source and may not reflect current pricing.

Taxi

Beige taxis with a roof sign wait at the parking lot and are reported cheaper than booking through a counter or tout; a commonly cited fare is in the tens of thousands of ariary for 2–3 people, but that figure comes from an older source — confirm the price before riding.

Rideshare

No ride-hailing app is confirmed to operate in Antananarivo.

Car Rental

Avis, Budget, Europcar, Hertz, and Sixt all have on-site counters.

Insider tip

A roof-sign beige taxi from the parking lot is reported as the better-value option over airport touts — but treat any specific fare you're quoted as a starting point for negotiation, not a fixed price.

Transport routes, fares and operators change frequently. Verify current options on the official Ivato International Airport website before travel.

Ground Transport Tips for TNR

Only use official taxi ranks or pre-booked apps at Ivato International Airport. Avoid unofficial drivers approaching you in arrivals.
If a rail or metro connection exists, it is usually the fastest and most reliable option during rush hour.
Allow extra time for ground transport during peak hours. Antananarivo city traffic can significantly extend journey times.
Download offline maps for Antananarivo before landing — useful if your data connection is slow on arrival.
If travelling with heavy luggage, a private transfer or taxi is often more practical than public transport.
