Hi! I’m planning a 15-day trip to Algeria and have a few questions. First, about the visa—none of the consulates near me are answering the phone... So, for hotel reservations, is booking just the first night enough? Can one person handle the paperwork for both of us as a couple?

Next, we’re hoping to do a road trip using public transport—any realistic itinerary ideas for two weeks?

And finally, how did you handle money? I’ve heard you have to declare cash on arrival—how did you manage the exchange? Thanks in advance for your tips, because so far it’s been tough getting answers, and I don’t want to struggle!

🌵 Fancy some desert vibes, simple and authentic experiences?

We’re a group of 3 friends who love wide-open spaces, and we’re putting together a small group (max 10 people – 5 spots left!) for a trek in Djanet.

🌄 No mass tourism here. Just dunes, silence, laughter around the fire, and a human adventure that feels good. If you’re feeling the call of the South, maybe it’s time to answer 😉

Trek in Djanet – Sefar Discover Sefar – The ancient lost city in the heart of the Tassili n’Ajjer: bivouacs, rock paintings, dunes, and magical Saharan vibes 💛

🎫 The flight ticket from Algiers to Djanet is included. 📅 From November 15th to 22nd ✈️ You just need to arrange the Paris to Algiers flight.

🎒 Recommended gear: - Good hiking shoes (around 15 km per day) - Sleeping bag - Water bottle + Aquatabs tablets for water

🚿 Note: no showers during the trek and outdoor toilets. 📵 And most importantly, no network – total disconnection from the world.

Hi everyone, I’m looking to put together a small group to explore the Red Tadrart in the Tassili n’Ajjer desert from November 28 to December 7, 2025 (dates flexible depending on participants’ availability). The idea is to experience this adventure together and benefit from group discounts. => Around 1000 € per person for a group of 5 => Less if the group is larger. This won’t be my first trip to the area, so you can trust me when I say you’re in for an incredible experience. Highlights: endless red dunes, natural arches, ancient rock carvings, and camping under the stars. For flight tickets, we can coordinate to optimize schedules and costs based on where everyone’s traveling from. If you’re keen to discover the Sahara in a different way, or if you’d like more details, feel free to reach out. Sarah

Hi there, we’re planning a road trip in northern Algeria at the end of January – early February. Anyone have any tips for a car rental agency that’s both reliable and not too expensive? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I went to submit my visa application to visit my partner’s family. We’re religiously married in France. I provided an accommodation certificate, pay slips, travel insurance, and a document stating we’re religiously married—signed, etc. I want to travel with my partner’s son, who has both Algerian and French passports and is a minor. So, I told them he lives with us. Since his father has custody, they didn’t charge me anything and said they’d call me back because my file is going to a committee. I also told them I needed to leave by July 15th. This is the Lille consulate—has this ever happened to any of you?,

I’m heading out solo on September 14, 2025, for a month-long road trip in Algeria. Taking the ferry from Almería to Ghazaouet on September 17. Planning to visit Tlemcen, Oran, Tipaza, Algiers, Ghardaïa, Constantine, M’Chouneche, Ouargla, and the Tadrart Desert toward Djanet.

How do I go about booking accommodations? What’s the best way to exchange currency under good conditions? What are the restrictions for traveling alone by car, and is it possible to drive solo all the way to Ghardaïa? I still have a spot available if anyone’s interested.

Hi everyone, and happy Ramadan to those celebrating. I wanted to ask—I just submitted my application yesterday for a deferment from military service. Here’s my situation: I already had a deferment in Algeria that expired last September. I arrived in France just before that to start my studies, got my consular card at the Paris consulate, and yesterday I submitted my application for a deferment on the grounds that I’m a student. I’m 24, turning 25 soon. The issue: the commission has already met this year, and I was told my deferment won’t be available until 2026—that I have to come back again in September to justify the next academic year. When I asked the guy (who was in a hurry) if I could return to Algeria with this deposit receipt without any issues at the border police (PAF), he said yes, no problem. But I’m not sure I trust that answer. Has anyone here been in the same situation and could shed some light? Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Has anyone had recent experience applying for a tourist visa to Algeria from Quebec, specifically at the consulate in Montreal?

How long does it take? The consulate’s website says 2 to 3 weeks. Is that accurate?

Is it possible to apply by mail? A travel agency told me it’s unrealistic.

What’s the maximum number of days you’ve been granted?

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to bike around the Mediterranean. I’m supposed to go through North Africa, but it seems a bit complicated. Visas and travel in Algeria and Egypt only work if you book a hotel (no nights spent outside?). Libya is generally very unclear, and it seems you can only travel there with a local guide (which doesn’t exist for bike trips). If necessary, I’d skip Libya, but neither a bus ride nor a boat detour seems possible to enter Egypt.

Does anyone have tips on how to get around these issues and secure a visa?

Thanks for any advice!

Hi there, Vacation in El Kala Departure is very soon Tell me about the most beautiful places to visit What’s the weather like at this time of year? We’ll be exploring with Yassir We’re thinking of visiting Constantine, but I think it might be a bit far Thanks so much!

Hi everyone, We’re French and we’d like to visit Algeria, especially Kabylie, for a stay of about ten days. We’ll be renting a car (which are the best car rental agencies?)

It seems that to get a tourist visa for less than 90 days, we need to show proof of accommodation + a flight confirmation from France to Algiers. (Which hotels in Algiers do you recommend? And which airlines?)

What should we do if the visa is ultimately refused? It’s not ideal if the response takes 2 months and we have to cancel the hotel and flight.

What do you suggest we do? What are the best practices?

Thanks in advance! Patrick from Nantes

Hi, I’m interested in hiking in the city of Sefar. Has anyone here been there? Thanks for your replies. Didier

Hi there,

Hopefully I can find some answers here!

Our best friend, who is Moroccan/French, wants to marry an Algerian woman. They’ve already met, and the first steps have been taken. It seems like getting married under these circumstances is really complicated—has anyone been in a similar situation and could share some advice on the administrative side or the steps to take?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

As the owner of a Peugeot 404 in Algeria, I have the opportunity to renovate it in France. My question is whether, administratively, I’m allowed to take my car out in a rusty, worn state and bring it back in great condition—will customs, the technical service, or any other administration have an issue with that?

Thanks in advance for your feedback and insights. Have a great day

Hello, My husband and I (retired) are planning to spend a few days in Algeria around Christmas. I know a visa is required and that the application must be made in person (hotel reservation, travel insurance certificate, proof of sufficient funds), and the collection too. A few questions: -Is getting the visa easy or "problematic"? -Any hotel, guide, or points of interest recommendations for Algiers, Oran, Constantine? Thanks in advance for all your answers, and long live Voyage-Forum! Laurence

Hi everyone,

I’m starting to think about a trip that’s really close to my heart: Algeria by motorcycle, specifically the southern part of the country. It’d be for January 2025, and I’ve got two main questions:

Is it possible for an individual on a motorcycle to travel freely, outside of any organized tour, or does the regulation require some kind of supervision in the Algerian Sahara region?

Is the Hoggar massif accessible by road or by (rideable) tracks?

Beyond the official recommendations, I’m really looking for your firsthand experiences. Thanks so much for your answers, and sorry if my questions are a bit newbie!

Ride safe! ✌️ Didier

1- Quel est le montant autorisé à la Douane algérienne dans le cadre d'un déménagement CCR. 2- Quel enseigne en France ( type Cdiscount, Darty, Boulager, ...etc.) permettrait de récupérer la TVA sur l’électroménager ? Merci pour votre retour
