An Unforgettable Journey to the South of Algeria:
Itinerary (Part 1): London - Tassili n'Ajjer
Day 1:
We'll depart via London and Algiers to Biskra on scheduled flights. We'll
arrive in Biskra late in the afternoon. The airport bus will transfer the group to the
town youth hostel, where we'll have dinner and stay for the night.
Day 2:
We'll explore Biskra in the morning. The town is situated 400km southeast of
Algiers. The Ziban capital has a long history marked by Berbers, Romans, Arabs,
Turks and French. The old souk is well known for its spice shops. Tourists can still
see traditional mud- brick houses with small doors and windows, scattered in the
middle of palm groves in Old Biskra. In the afternoon, our guide Ahmed will take us
to Tolga, an oasis located 36km to the west of Biskra and famous for the quality of its
dates called "deglet nur". After dinner, two vans will drive us to Ghardaia, where
we'll spend the night in a local school dormitory. (to be continued)
