TZO is the airport code for Tsimiroro Airport, a small airstrip in west-central Madagascar, near the settlement of Ankisatra. It is associated above all with the Tsimiroro heavy-oil project, an in-development oil field in this remote inland part of the island, and the airstrip mainly serves that operation rather than tourism. This is a working, out-of-the-way location rather than a destination, set in the dry, thinly populated country of western Madagascar, a land of savanna and scattered villages. Travelers exploring Madagascar generally head instead for the island's famous natural attractions elsewhere, such as its national parks, baobab avenues and coasts. Tsimiroro itself is reached mainly by light aircraft to the airstrip and by rough overland tracks that can be difficult, especially in the rainy season. The climate is hot, with a marked wet season and a long dry season.
