Tourism in Algeria
Algeria is the largest country in Africa and the 10th largest in the world in terms of total area countries. Located in North Africa, one of the main tourist attractions is the Sahara, the second largest desert in the world1. Some sand dunes can reach 180 meters hauteur2,3. This State is a member of the World Tourism Organization since 1976 but tourism in Algeria is not yet in its infancy. The tourism revenues do not exceed 10% of gross domestic product and the country ranks 147th in the world. The tourism sector in Algeria represents 3.9% of the volume of exports, 9.5% of the rate of productive investment and 8.1% of GDP.
The tragic events of the early 1990s delayed infrastructure development and discouraged many tourists staying there. However, the trend tends to inverser4 with a return of foreigners, especially tourism affinity from France. We note, for example, a 20% increase in tourism between 2000 and 2005.
