Algeria again
I have received some news from a traveller who crossed south Algeria in September .
He gave me some interresting infos after he came back : 1. No problem to have a visa : same procedure then last year ; an no probleme at border post : no guide is mandatory 2. there are convoys again beetween El-Golea and In-Salah ( On Sunday and Wednesday ) and beetween In Salah and Tam ( on Monday and Thursday ) ; It is impossible to quit these towns without convoy and you have to wait for the day of departure of the convoy . 3. Barrages in Ouargla,El-Golea,In Salah,Tam + Arak's Gorge and Moulay Hassan . The mood is not very good in the south due to the lack of tourists No infos now for the road to Djanet . RR. |
Wonder where this traveller got his (or her) visa. In Niger or Mali? Or somewhere else?
Greetings, Gerbert |
In France , with a ordinary invitation ;
I've phoned to Algerian consulate in Lyon (France) : same procédure than last year . |
Things seems changing fast since your last phonecall. See Yahoo explo 4x4 . |
Not sure !
I've phoned YESTERDAY to Algerian consulate in Lyon : SAME PROCEDURE AGAIN to obtain the visa (Same info in Grenoble) It's difficult to know what to believe but I think that NOW nothing have changed . And for the future the most important thing it's what happens at border post : is the presence of the guide mandatory OR not ? |

Niger without a convoy? Thanks, Bram |
From the same traveller who gave me the infos about convoys beetween El Golea and Tam : No convoys after Tam ; so you can go to Niger in the same manner than last year .
(He was going to Agadez to make a loop in Air) Can you tell me which trip are you planning ? Thank you very much for your response ! Roro. |
