Algeria -big logistic problem so….
 
Hello to all

I have now a big logistic problem so….

3 very fast questions.

1- is there any open border from Algéria to Libya?
2- If yes where?
3- Can we get a visa in the algerian border (Alger?)


Thanks!!!

Hello Bernardo,
3 time answer is NO...
Some time it is possible to go from Ghat to Algeria but in the moment it is closed.
In the reverse sense it is allways closed for not arabic people!
You will nowhere find an other possibility to cross this border.!!

thnks

and from Algeria to Tunisia?

Hello,

between Algeria to Tunis the border is open in both directions.
The usual border post used by overlanders is "Taleb Larbi".

Hello Bernardo,
Yves has right.
The best way is to go from El Oued to Nefta and then to Ras Ajdir where you can get the Libyan Visa at the border if you have an invitation and if an agent from the libyan agency is there.

Hello

Is it possible to arrive to Alger by ferry with out a visa and with out an invitation just to drive to Tunisia?

Yves 27 Jul 2007 11:44

Hello Bernardo,
no, you need the visa before arriving in Algeria as Georges allready wrote.
An invitation is one of the possible prerequisits to obtain the visa, but you don't need it to travel in Algeria - but in the South a guide is compulsory.
