Are you planning to discover Algeria? Enjoy an unforgettable stay in the heart of one of the most beautiful cities in the country. Embark on board a cruise ship and book your crossing from Marseille to Algiers. The Notre-Dame d'Afrique basilica is one of the city's most important sights. Nestled in the heart of the Z'Ghara district, this historic Algerian monument is perched at an altitude of 124 metres. Its architecture is a clever marriage between the Hispano-Moorish and Byzantine styles. If you are passionate about Muslim culture, plan a trip to the Kasbah. Visit its famous mosques in Ketchaua, Jamaa al-Jdid or Jemaa Kebir. Dar Aziza, the most beautiful of the ancient Algerian palaces, is also worth a visit.
If you are passing through Algiers, treat yourself to a moment of relaxation along its coastline. Stretching over 900 metres in length, El Kettani beach is one of the most popular sites for summer visitors. To the east is a swimming pool with three pools to enjoy the benefits of seawater. Another alternative is Palm Beach located west of the city centre. Swimming is allowed. For peaceful walks by the sea, discover the beaches of Thalasso, Les Sables d'Or and Les Ondines Sud.
Before leaving the city via the port of Algiers, be sure to visit the Essai du Hamma Garden. Ideal for a family walk, this landmark site is home to more than 3,000 plant species. The Essai Garden extends over 32 hectares. To the west is the French garden. In the centre, the plane tree path plunges visitors into an exotic setting. Another curiosity not to be missed is the Grande Poste d'Alger. This magnificent neo-Moorish style building is admired both inside and out. To end your stay in Algiers, the National Museum of Fine Arts is a site that deserves a stop.
