According to a Tuareg saying, ‘God created the desert so that men could find their souls in it’.
A Saharan dream par excellence, the Algerian south has everything to fascinate even the most experienced traveler, among spectacular sand dunes and sandstone towers eroded in bizarre and spectacular shapes.
An unusual Sahara, of mountains eroded and sedimented for millennia, lava flows and basalt cliffs that nature has shaped into real works of art. Discovering the Hermitage of Father Foucauld in the Hoggar Mountains, the volcanic region on which the Assekrem plateau stands out, “the end of the world” in Tamacheq language. From the sleepy towns of Tamanrasset and Djanet, to the Tadrart, where you can admire the “fairy chimneys” of Moul N’Aga, the red dunes of Tin Merzouga and the exceptional paintings and rock carvings hidden in the ravines of the rocky gorges of the In Djaren Oued. A time-suspended itinerary that will give you unforgettable emotions.
