I read so much, saw so many photos and videos about Algeria and could not think that this was just a publicity stunt. There is no tourism in Algeria and will not be in the next 10 years. Well, of course, in the sense of organized tourism, which is in neighboring Morocco and Tunisia. Until now, the situation in the country resembles a semi-military, semi-revolutionary, semi-semi... not stable. If at first glance it seems that everything is easy and simple, it is enough to dress appropriately, to speak at least French or, in extreme cases, English, and then the troubles of tourists in a new country will disappear by themselves - this is a deep delusion. Get ready to pay a lot of money for the lowest standard of living. Unfortunately, there is no truthful information on Russian-language sites, I advise you to read the realities on German or French ones. The most frequent reports are: foreign tourists have disappeared without a trace, troops, gendarmerie and foreign special forces cannot find any traces. Search terminated! Alas. . . My mini photo gallery is on this site.
