Algeria in depth


Trip description

A stay of three weeks, without a special theme, allows to deepen what can be done in ten days, and to contemplate a beautiful stay in the south and an excursion in Kabylia and in the Aurès, in the discovery of the rebel lands. The ideal is to combine a stay in the north with the discovery of the coast and several of its cities, an ancient site, an excursion in the Aurès with a circuit in the south. In order to combine the north and south, the first loop should be considered in the north from Algiers and then book a return flight for the south direction Djanet, and with the help of a local agency carrying out a tour of the Hoggar or Tassili.
