Algiers
You leave Algiers the way you arrive, facing the sea: the white city rises in an amphitheatre above the bay, hence its nickname “Algiers the White”. Before leaving, many travellers climb to the basilica of Notre-Dame d’Afrique, which overlooks the gulf, or take a last walk through the lanes of the Casbah, a UNESCO site since 1992. The neo-Moorish Grande Poste and the Jardin d’Essai du Hamma, created in the 19th century, remain popular stops. Allow time for port formalities, which are often longer in high season.
Barcelona
Barcelona receives the ferries from Algeria in the large port at the foot of Montjuïc, a few metro or bus stops from the Ramblas. Drivers quickly reach the Ronda Litoral and then the AP-7 motorway towards France or Valencia. For foot passengers, El Prat airport and Sants station offer plenty of connections, and the Montjuïc cable car lets you gain some height while waiting for your next departure.
