Methodology

Each guide is researched against primary and authoritative secondary sources, drafted by a writer with relevant regional knowledge, checked against our fact-checking standards, dated, and revisited on a maintenance schedule. See our Research Methodology and Fact-Checking Policy.

Research standards

We prefer primary and official sources (UNESCO, government tourism bodies, museums, transport operators) and clearly distinguish verifiable fact from practical judgement and opinion.

The Algeria Compass editorial team is responsible for every guide, province page, destination and answer published on this site. We are a small, Algeria-focused editorial operation rather than a content farm: we write about places we research carefully, in English, French and Arabic, for an international audience that wants to understand and travel Algeria well.

What we cover

Our work spans the whole country — the Sahara and the Tassili plateaus, the UNESCO Roman cities of the north-east, the Kabylie coast and mountains, the Andalusian west around Tlemcen and Oran, the M’Zab valley, and the Mediterranean coast and capital. We focus on heritage, history, culture, food and the practical logistics of getting around.

How we work

We research each topic against primary and authoritative sources, draft it with regional knowledge, verify factual claims, date the result and review it on a schedule. We separate fact (which we source) from practical judgement (our recommendations) and opinion (clearly framed as such). Where we are uncertain, we say so rather than guess.

Accuracy over marketing

Algeria Compass is a travel business, but our editorial standard is independence from the sell: a guide’s job is to be accurate and useful first. We do not invent reviews, credentials, ratings or partnerships, and we correct mistakes openly. Our full standards are set out in our Editorial Policy, Research Methodology and Fact-Checking Policy.

Named authorship
