We went to Madagascar from the Czech Republic. To visit Lokobe, we used a local guide from Madala (Frido), the whole trip was absolutely great and adventurous, we had a kayak trip, the guys knew exactly where to look for lemurs in the reserve, they also showed us other great endemics animal species including the smallest chameleon in the world. I definitely recommend it, the local contact is:

Fantastic trip into the park. Saw lemurs and pythons among the wild life. Our guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Travelled by tuktuk and canoe, which we waded out to.
Arranged this with Tantely over email while on our way on the cruise. She was there to meet us when we landed.
The trip duration is negotiable so fitted in easily with our cruise departure.

We thoroughly enjoyed this trip (once we managed to get off the ship) but we were met by Dino straight away and because we were late we had to get a tuk-tuk to the boat area which is a nice 25 minute ride from the city into the countryside.
once arrived it was a few minutes walk across the mud flats to the boat where we picked up another guide and his aid (sorry cant remember their names) and commenced the paddle to the reserve (about 25 mins). you can help with the paddling, which I did, or sit back and view the scenery (I seen a sea turtle) like my wife did.
Once at the reserve the guide takes you into the forest and explains the fauna and creatures around including lemurs, chameleons, snakes, owls etc. The guide brings them to you and points them out which is a lovely experience.
Then its back on the boat to paddle back for lunch in the village restaurant which was excellent - a full barracuda fish, prawn & zebu skewers, coconut rice and Madagascan potatoes - delicious.
Then off on the tuk tuk back to the ship but allowing time to wander through the market. Yemaya met us on the way back to confirm everything was ok - a nice touch.
A few notes - wear decent shoes for wet/mud/hills. Take plenty of change/money for locals goods and tips. Don't worry if you feel you a little intimidated by the surroundings - just enjoy the ride
