Algerian Police Followed Me into the Desert

Cycling the world - Europe: 155 episode
In the fifth episode of my round-the-world bike tour in Algeria, I wake up at my wild camping spot with a wet tent due to overnight rain and colder-than-expected temperatures. As I hit the road, I’m invited by locals for lunch, experiencing incredible hospitality. After one more climb, I reach the start of the desert and am in awe of the stunning landscape. Finding a camping spot takes a bit longer, but the full moon and dry, warmish night make it worthwhile. The next day, after another lunch invitation, I’m stopped by the police and questioned for over an hour, resulting in an unexpected police escort. Instead of camping in the mountains of Bou Saada, I end up staying in a high-end hotel due to fully booked cheaper options on a busy Thursday night.

Ciao Davide, I wonder if the police was only there to ensure your safety? In some regions, I have heard about that. Such a great video again!

@DavideTravelli 2 месяца назад

Hey Frank! They told me it was for my own safety. That's what they always tell you in these situations. Who knows what's the real reason is, most likely they dont want any problem in their territories which is understandable from one side but surely you're not really free if the police tails you around and prevent anyone to approach you as well as restricts your itinerary etc. There is a definition for that kind of safety: police state.

@alboud 2 месяца назад

@@DavideTravelli if you got lost or killed it would lead to diplomatic issues, of course they will want to keep you safe as many reckless tourists dive into trouble headfirst

@DavideTravelli 2 месяца назад

@alboud it’s a diplomatic issue ONLY when the police, army, or intelligence agencies are responsible for harm, as seen in the tragic case of Giulio Regeni in Egypt. Thousands of tourists die every year worldwide, yet this hasn’t led to widespread implementation of police states. For example, many people drown at beaches, die climbing mountains, skiing, hiking, or engaging in other adventurous activities. However, most countries have not resorted to constant surveillance or heavy-handed policing as a solution. The approach of a police state, where tourists are followed and their movements restricted, undermines the essence of freedom and exploration that travel should embody. Ultimately there is no safety if personal freedoms are compromised.

That's the official explanation, however given that there are hundreds of comments in my Algerian videos claiming I'm a spy perhaps they wanted to keep an eye on me. Second they didnt allow anyone to stop and talk to me, when anyone tried they sent them away. Third I wasnt free do go where I wanted to but they took me to the hotel and asked the hotel personnel to inform then whenever I was leaving the hotel. If I'm not able to travel freely in a country for me there is no point going there.

@cocothefly 2 месяца назад

If you have followed other adventurers trips around Algeria, you would know that starting from Ghardaïa or around the beginning of the Sahara and down south, police escort is mandatory due to security issues in all the neighboring countries. Also, some foreigners managed to not be followed by being smart, avoiding usual roads, keeping a low profile and a bit of luck.

@DavideTravelli 2 месяца назад

I didnt really look into others adventures, I tried to find some other bike travellers accounts but nobody ventured south. I was aware that the south is a special area because you need to require basically a different visa but none of the official information specify (Algerian government web sites) where the south starts. I thought Bou Saada was not that south.

@cocothefly 2 месяца назад

@@DavideTravelli Indeed, Bou Saada isn't that south, we call it the gates of the Sahara and yes you were a bit unlucky, usually things start to get complicated around Ghardaïa. I find horizons unlimited forum very informative, it is meant for Motorcycle Traveller but same would apply for you.

@DavideTravelli 2 месяца назад

@cocothefly Yes I thought it was just a bit of bad luck or someone at the village called the gendarmerie. I would have liked to go a bit more south than Bou Saada but having the police tailing me was not really appealing and my visa was very short, realistically I could have gone south only one more day or two. Thank you for the tip on the horizons unlimited forum, I'll bookmark it for the future.

The Algerian gendarmerie dedicates substantial resources to keep foreigners safe. Any incident, like getting lost or attacked, could lead to a diplomatic issue with your country and negatively impact tourism and foreign investments. You’re not alone in this; many others, including employees of multinational companies, also receive escorts in the desert. We understand it’s annoying for someone who wants to wander in the sahara, but it’s the price you pay for your safety.

The police offered to accompany you to show you the way. Otherwise it's normal to be stopped, the police do their job like all police officers around the world. Police officers monitor the roads to prevent Moroccan and sub-Saharan African drug traffickers from passing through Algeria. The Algerian authorities are doing an exceptional job to prevent their country from being invaded by drug traffickers, smugglers and migrants from neighboring countries. Without the Algerian police, Europe would be no longer under attack by migrants from sub-Saharan Africa. They do their job, and everything is fine if you follow the laws. It's the same as our police officers in Europe. In Italy or France, we have to comply with police identity checks, so in Algeria it's the same thing.

Si la police ou gendarmerie te suit non pas pour te surveiller mais veiller sur ta sécurité l'Algérie est pays d'accueil et veille sur ces touristes pas plus

I wish you success in your trip to the desert. Algeria is a safe country and the people are very kind. With the provision of security and safety, the police will follow you for your safety. Good luck and thank you for your visit to Algeria. 🎉😂❤

If you were Algerian, they would care much but since you are a foreigner, your safety is a major priority.

I think it's just keeping you safe. But as James Bond I can imagine it's harder now to shoot pics of the secret Algerian cactus, with cops on your tail. As a superspy you just got to lay low for the while now! We spies salute you! 🫡 Hehe at some point they'll be done watching you I guess. Thanks for the upload! Amazing country 😊

Despite the unpleasantness of the distrustful police, you managed to have a very nice time and show great footage. I am surprised that no women were in the video-we know pretty much that all those beautiful food dishes were prepared by women. They are so Bronze Age. We women are people too! Nothing to be afraid of either 😀 As always your stills / postcards were AWESOME. Thank you Davide for showing us the world.

@DavideTravelli 2 месяца назад

Thank you Gina. The first day I didn’t seen any women but the second household I have seen the woman who cooked the meal and I think she made the pottery. She didn’t have the hijab perhaps she was Amazigh (Berber) not Arab but I do know they don’t want to be on camera so I didn’t even asked. If feel a bit disrespectful to take out the camera when invited in someone’s house, I never did it in the past but I try to document more of my journey.

@FlyingNacho 2 месяца назад

"Bronze age" because women aren't being filmed in the privacy of their own homes? Is that really your main takeaway from all the hospitality Davide documented? Talk about prejudice.

Many came. Tourism. We have never seen anything like this before. I think it is for your safety. Advice: do not go into the middle of the desert. Because there are many people. They got lost there. Thanks

@Rueyful 2 месяца назад

The reason is that if you get abducted, it would be too late already. There have been tourists that got abducted in the past for a ransom, so stay safe friend.

È divertente, ti ritrovi in un albergo perché la polizia pensava di farti un favore. Volevano aiutarti scortandoti. Avresti dovuto spiegare loro che preferisci campeggiare. Con la barriera linguistica non è facile farsi capire, ma non con cattive intenzioni. Pensavano di fare la cosa giusta. La polizia sta facendo il suo lavoro. Ci sono paesi a cui non importa, la polizia lascerebbe morire le persone. Trovo che gli agenti di polizia algerini siano davvero utili. A loro piace aiutare. Per il resto fanno il loro lavoro come tutti i poliziotti del mondo. Soprattutto in Algeria la polizia svolge un lavoro difficile perché controlla le strade per impedire il passaggio di narcotrafficanti, contrabbandieri e migranti attraverso l'Algeria. L'Algeria è la prima linea di difesa dell'Europa, perché questo paese sta facendo un grande sforzo per combattere le reti dei migranti e della droga. L’Algeria si rifiuta di permettere che questo paese venga invaso da questi criminali. E senza l’Algeria credo che in Europa avremmo 5 volte più migranti.

Si ma lo sapevano che volevo campeggiare ma mi hanno detto di no. Hanno voluto persono le coordinate GPS di dove avevo campeggiato la notte precedente. Sicuramente loro fanno il loro lavoro che non discuto, solo come viaggiatore vorrei essere libero di muovermi liberamente come tutti gli altri cittadini del paese.
