Akham N'Timimoun is a traditional-style guesthouse on Rue Kouba in Timimoun, the red oasis of the Gourara region. It is run by the same host family as the Akham guesthouse in Ghardaia, in the M'Zab valley. It is a way to experience the Sahara at the pace of the oasis, away from large hotels.

A guesthouse in Timimoun

The house is on Rue Kouba in the town of Timimoun. It is a small, traditional-style house that follows the region's architecture.

Akham means «the house» in Tamazight. The family behind Akham N'Timimoun also welcomes travellers in Ghardaia, in the Beni Isguen palm grove: two possible stops on the same trip through southern Algeria.

Exploring Timimoun and the Gourara

Timimoun is the main town of the Gourara, an oasis region of the Algerian Sahara. Visitors come for the red-ochre architecture of the town and its ksour, the palm grove watered by foggaras, the great sebkha and the dunes of the Grand Erg Occidental.

The best season runs from autumn to spring; the end-of-year holidays are very popular, so book early. Summers are very hot. For entry requirements and travel advice, please refer to official sources such as your government's travel advice and the Algerian consulate.
