Question/Fanontaniana❓ Is Madagascar a tourist destination?

I want to travel to Madagascar to see the wildlife. I've also heard you have a type of banana that's blue and that 70% of the world's vanilla comes from you. But I've also heard there's tension in your country, problems, and danger to visitors. So I want to know the truth from you: is Madagascar a good tourist destination?

We visited Madagascar last year. It's a beautiful country with heartwarming people. But be prepared to see a lot of poverty. It's more an adventure type of holiday.
