Travel and Tourism in Algeria: Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016 Published: July 2012


1 Introduction

1.1 What is this Report About?

This report is the result of extensive research on travel and tourism in Algeria, covering the demand

factors that influence tourism as well as analysis of tourism flows within the country. It provides insights

on the market size and forecast for travel and tourism in Algeria.
