Special Trip Remarks:
We recommend packing light for this tour as porters may not be available at some of the guesthouses and you may be required to carry your own luggage from the hotel to the vehicle. Tourist facilities are very limited in the remote regions of the desert and small villages you will be visiting. In the desert of Algeria, there are few first-class hotels. Hotel A/C’s do not cool a room to American standards of comfort.
Participants should understand that this trip involves long drives in hot weather sometimes in 4x4 vehicles. The physical shape you are in will be an important factor in your enjoyment of the trip. There are dangers inherent in any expedition traveling to remote regions such as sickness and lack of modern medical facilities. Knowing the nature of traveling to remote areas, all travelers on this tour will require a high level of flexibility, tolerance, and willingness to go with the flow if things change.
By signing up for this tour, you are acknowledging a full understanding and acceptance of all terms and conditions and are admitting that you are in good physical and mental health and are equipped with an open mind, a sense of adventure, and a tolerant and patient spirit to cope with the tour. Domestic flights may change last minute, forcing us to make necessary changes to the itinerary and the sequence of visits. We have the full right to make changes to the hotels and sites or activities previously described in the itinerary without notice due to possible circumstances beyond our control. It is highly advisable to purchase travel protection insurance for this tour.
Notes: M’Zab Guesthouse is more basic, but we will be delighted in its traditional charm and beauty. The rooms have private ensuite toilet and showers.
