Top tips for hiring a car in Algeria
- Since Algeria's public transport options like buses such as EMA, the modern tramway system and the SNTF train system may not cover all routes, you will gain movement flexibility and convenience by renting a car from the Algeria car rentals. Besides allowing you to set your itinerary and travel at your own pace, your rented car from the Algeria car rentals will also offer convenience and comfort, especially when visiting multiple rural destinations or traveling with a group. Among those rural destinations you could consider visiting with your rented car are; Tassili n'Ajjer National Park and the Sahara Desert.

Some of the commonly used roads that feature toll booths are; East-West Highway (Autoroute Est-Ouest), North-South Highway (Autoroute Nord-Sud) and East-West Expressway (Autoroute Est-Ouest à Péage). Since cash payment is commonly accepted at toll booths, so you are advised to carry local currency when using some toll roads.
- When you plan to rent a car from any Algeria car rental for movement flexibility with your kids, kindly remember to factor in the child seat safety guidelines.
