From Algiers: Western Algeria Tour – Tipaza, Oran & Tlemcen｜Algeria

Begin your journey with pickup from your accommodation in Algiers and travel west along Algeria's beautiful Mediterranean coast. Your first stop is the Royal Mausoleum of Mauretania, an impressive ancient monument linked to King Juba II and Queen Cleopatra Selene. Continue to the UNESCO-listed Roman ruins of Tipaza, where you'll explore remarkably preserved temples, basilicas, baths, and the ancient theater overlooking the sea. After your visit, enjoy a delicious seafood lunch at a local restaurant before continuing west. In the evening, arrive in Chlef for an overnight stay.

After breakfast on the second day, continue to Oran, Algeria's vibrant second-largest city. Spend the day discovering its rich history and lively atmosphere. Visit the iconic Santa Cruz Fortress for panoramic views over the Bay of Oran, explore the historic city center, stroll through Place du 1er Novembre, admire colonial-era architecture, and experience the city's unique blend of Mediterranean, Spanish, French, and Algerian influences. Enjoy free time to soak up the local atmosphere before returning to your accommodation.

On the final day, depart after breakfast for the historic city of Tlemcen, often called the "Pearl of the Maghreb." Explore its remarkable Andalusian and Islamic heritage as you visit the Mechouar Palace and the Great Mosque of Tlemcen and wander through the old medina with its traditional markets and artisan workshops. After a full day of sightseeing, relax on the scenic drive back to Algiers, where your unforgettable journey through western Algeria comes to an end in the evening.
