Algeria historically represents our first ever tourist destination, our ‘starting block’ for an adventure that began in 1977. Here, Spazi d’Avventura proposed the first expedition trips – off-road, trekking, and purely mountaineering – to a select group of Italian travellers eager to explore the ‘Great Desert,’ then largely unknown to tourism. This ‘historic’ destination, after years of hiatus, is being joyfully revisited with new travel solutions that allow for total freedom.
Our trips to the Algerian desert take place on foot and by off-road vehicle, in the Tassili n’Ajjer and the Erg of Admer in the Djanet region, in the Tadrart Acacus that laps the Ténéré and in the Hoggar mountains in the Tamanrasset region: a selection of trips that offers travellers a unique experience, a true Saharan adventure in the company of the Tuareg, nomads of the desert, in an environment rich in colour, fantasy and mineral wonders, surrounded by beautiful nature.
A trip to Algeria is an excellent opportunity, not too long and easily accessible, for a first Saharan adventure or for those seeking a deeper cultural immersion after previous Saharan experiences.
Additionally, consider extending your journey or making a separate trip to the magnificent capital of Algiers, the ‘white city,’ and explore the impressive ruins of Roman cities such as Tipasa, Djemila, Timgad, and Lambesis in the mountains, and Constantine, the city of bridges perched on a limestone monolith, all UNESCO World Heritage sites.
