Take the time
A journey with room for discovery, conversation and happy surprises. The final format is still being developed.
On 2 August 2027, look up. And take the time to discover what makes this country distinctive: its places, its voices, its hospitality.

THE ENCOUNTER
A total solar eclipse will cross part of Algeria on 2 August 2027. During this alignment, the Moon will completely cover the Sun within the path of totality.
The observation site makes all the difference. Totality, its duration and timings depend on precise coordinates: a region or city name alone cannot guarantee them.
Our project is being built around this moment and the journey that gives it meaning. Sites, trip length and services will be announced once the programme is confirmed.

The eclipse will be the highlight.
Algeria, the whole story.
A journey with room for discovery, conversation and happy surprises. The final format is still being developed.
Cities with stories to tell, skills passed down through generations, and encounters created with the people who live here.
The day of the eclipse deserves its own space: carefully prepared observation, an unhurried pace and attention to travellers' comfort.
REGIONS UNDER CONSIDERATION
Oran and its region, Bou Saâda and the gateways to the Sahara are informing our plans. These are possible travel areas, subject to on-site checks and confirmation.
Oran's energy, western Algeria's heritage and the Mediterranean horizon: a way to connect the sky with stories of the region.
Discover the Oran region ↗A different light, a different pace. An option being explored, subject to confirming accommodation and a suitable observation site.

CARE IN THE DETAILS
Our brief puts observation, comfort and respect for the setting at the heart of the project.
These criteria guide preparation. The services actually included will be detailed in the confirmed programme.
A CLEARER PICTURE
On 2 August 2027. Algeria lies on the path of the total eclipse, but only part of the country will be within the path of totality. Local timings and duration will be provided for the chosen observation site.
No. These are the regions being studied at this stage. The choice will depend on observation sites, accommodation, access and contingency options. The programme will be announced after confirmation.
The final format is still to be defined. We are developing a journey that gives Algeria a meaningful place around the eclipse. Duration and stages will be confirmed with the programme, without fixing the route prematurely.
Bookings are not open and no final price has been announced. You can register your interest to receive information when the programme is ready. This requires no payment and creates no booking commitment.
No. A predicted astronomical event does not guarantee local weather. Site selection, observation conditions and contingency options are part of our preparation; details will be included in the programme.
Entry requirements depend, among other things, on your nationality and circumstances. Read our FAQs and our travel guide, then talk to our team. To protect your eyes, use only equipment designed for solar observation and follow the briefing instructions.
