The natural potential of the wilaya constitutes a factor of tourist attraction, on which the local authorities rely to win the economic bet and create a dynamic of development and creation of new jobs. The region is a tourist destination par excellence given the natural potential it has. 

The civilizational dimension of the wilaya, deeply rooted in history, is a factor for the promotion of archaeological tourism through the founders of the kingdom of the TOUAREGUES. Tamanrasset also has many water sources, constituting an important pillar for tourism through the mineral resorts of the town.
