Algeria Travel Guide - Advice and expert travel tips on Algiers historic sites and accommodation, safety and visas, national parks and UNESCO World Heritage sites. Also highlighted in this guide are archaeological sites such as the ruins at Timgad and Tipasa, Algerian arts and culture, Sahara desert region, Casbah district, Kabylie and Constantine.
The first guide to focus on the renascent Algeria. After a decade of isolated but brutal civil unrest, peace is holding and tourism is emerging. From the northern coastal strip with bays reminiscent of southern Italy to the desert towns of the south, Algeria has a great deal to offer visitors.
Algeria's World Heritage sites are free of thronging crowds. There is significant evidence of the country's Roman past; the ruins of Timgad are among the best-preserved in the world, while those at Tipasa overlook the Mediterranean Sea and are within easy reach of the capital, Algiers. The desert holds 8,000-year-old cave paintings and the wonderful Haggar Mountains.
