    I booked this tour through TA’s sister company Viator.

    Riad the tour guide was waiting for me in reception on time, shortly followed by our driver Amine.

    Cherchell (a busy small port town on the med) is approximately 75 minutes drive from Algiers. It has a beautiful town square with fountain and elephant trees.it is the meeting point for the residents to meet, chat and put the world to rights.
    It is also home to one of the best small museums I have ever visited. And this is where I found that my tour guide Riad is an incredible fountain of knowledge. He made history come alive with such amazing enthusiasm. I think we spent two hours in the museum - I would have gladly spent longer listening to Riad give exciting (Algerian) Roman history !

    Tipaza. Just along the coast are they important Roman ruins of Tipaza. It’s an extraordinary mix of Roman, Phoenician and early Christian ruins overlooking the med.
    Again Riad made history come alive, and I visually and mentally stepped back in time to be surrounded by merchants, soldiers and sailors in this port town of old.

    A stop on the way back at an incredible mausoleum dedicated to an Egyptian Princess rounded off one of the most educating history tours I have ever taken. A private request to stop on the way back to hotel to take some extra photos was no problem at all.

    Riad was brilliant - Amine his driving wingman - made the day so very special.

    Highly recommended

    We had the best time in Algeria thanks to the Fancy Yellow team. Our itinerary had to change a couple of times before we travelled due to work, but nothing was too much trouble and they kindly rearranged everything. They helped with all the planning from visa arrangements, hotels and tours, to the best spots for mhadjeb! Our wonderful guide Zaki adapted our tour of Algiers on the spot as soon as he found out what we were most interested in, so it felt really personalised. Before we came home we were already planning our return visit and will definitely use Fancy Yellow again. Thanks so much - saha!

    My guide was very good and took time to explain and did not rush me. I really enjoyed chatting with him as we drove and learnt a lot about Algeria beyond the sites we visite. He showed up on time at Sofitel and dropped me off at my own hotel even though I was not at one of the listed pick up hotels. It was dark when we returned so I was glad that I did not have to get back to my hotel alone.

    My friend and I took a week-long trip to Algeria in November 2024. I can safely say it was one of the best trips of my life, and a big reason for this is that we were lucky enough to spend the first three days in Algiers and Tipasa with AlgeriaTours16. Nour was an exceptional tour guide, going above and beyond what one expects of a tour guide and making us feel like we were being shown around by an old friend. Algeria is amazing and we cannot wait to come back!

    From the get-go, everything was simple to organize, especially considering how last-minute we planned this portion of the trip. Wassim was helpful and friendly and allowed us to plan everything via WhatsApp, asking us what we wanted to visit and crafting the trip around our request. We already had our visa, but he offered to help us in case we didn't.

    Nour insisted on meeting us at the airport with Ahmed, our friendly and helpful driver, and we were immediately made to feel at ease -- we started chatting and didn't stop all day. On our first day, we took a walking tour around the botanical gardens and the port area of Algiers, stopping for the most delicious couscous we have ever had. The city is beautiful, we always felt safe, and it reminded us of Rome with its many layers of history. Best of all, Nour's background in architecture meant she could answer all our questions about the buildings we were seeing in amazing detail.

    The second day we continued our tour of Algiers, stopping at the Monument of the Martyrs in the morning before heading to the Basilica and the Mosque. All were breathtaking in their own way; we felt especially honoured to enter the Grand Mosque. After another amazing lunch (the desserts in particular blew us away) we went on to take a walking tour of the Casbah, winding through the old city and marvelling at the buildings and the views. Even after the tour was over, Nour helped us find restaurants to eat at in the evening.

    Our last day we ventured out of Algiers to visit the amazing ruins of Tipasa, which on this particular day were blanketed in a magical layer of fog, and the Tombeau de le Chretienne on the way back -- a personal highlight for me. Perched atop a beautiful hill overlooking the ocean, with the grandeur of a pyramid or a Roman arena, I could have spent hours wandering around it. We stopped here for a surprise picnic with Algerian desserts that Nour had made herself, which were delicious!

    One of the most amazing things was that as a place that still receives relatively few tourists, Algeria maintains a sense of authenticity and tranquillity for visitors that is so rare to find these days. Passers-by were curious about us but we were never made to feel harassed, followed, or overly observed, and everybody we interacted with was gracious and friendly. The ruins we saw, if they were in Rome, would be crammed with tourists; here, we were almost alone. It was simply incredible, and we felt very lucky to be there.

    I would recommend AlgeriaTours16 to anyone hoping to visit this beautiful country. Again, Nour went above and beyond, and is one of the best tour guides I've ever had! For example, I mentioned a particular gift I wanted to find for my father, she immediately dedicated herself to trying to find it and made a special stop for us to get it. And even once we had left for the next part of our trip in Timimoun, she checked in to see how we were doing, and we returned for one last night in Algiers before our flight home to find a home-made gift waiting for us at our hotel.

    Thank you, saha, merci for everything. We hope to be back very soon!

    A really exciting and interesting tour. Both the Roman Ruins of Tipaza and Mausoleum of Mauritania are a must-see when visiting this region of Algeria. The pick-up was nice and easy from our hotel in Algiers, and our guide Jasmine was friendly and a very safe driver. After visiting the ruins, we had lunch at Le Dauphin, Tipaza; the food was fresh and delicious and there were a lot of options to choose from. This tour was truly brilliant and included so much. Highly recommend!

    If you are an experienced traveler who likes to have a tour to feel the history and the culture of a city then this is "the tour" to chose. With Mohammed Bouzidi we had a real taste of the city and of this wonderful people. He is attentive, has full knowlege of the historical and cultural facts and made sure that we got a taste the real Algiers (food, people and monuments wise)

    Sam is very knowledgeable about Algerian history and architecture. He is also very committed to his job and friendly. Was even very flexible to reschedule my tour (was alone without group) from the morning to the afternoon.

    I had a wonderfull time! i can't even chose which site i enjoyed more they were all top notch it was like stepping into a time machine, the archaeological sites are a must visit for anyone facinated by ancient civilazations like Roman, Phoenician and Berber.
    Tipaza was BREATH TAKING! walking through the ruins what once was a bustling Roman town over looking the sea, the site is well preserved with highlights that includes a Roman theater, basilicas and villas that hints at the sophistication of ancient urban life.
    The Kasbah of Algiers is a remarkable mix of Ottoman, French and local architectural influences, in every twist and turn you get to see it's layered history.
    I felt really safe with Mohammed ( the guide) he was very professional and good company i would for sure recommand.
    overall a 10/10 experience

    Nehad was an outstanding guide, taking us to the most interesting places in the Casbah. She was knowledgeable, prompt and highly informative. She altered the tour to cater to our specific interests and nothing was too much trouble. I can’t imagine a better guide to the Casbah, especially if you are interested in the film ‘The Battle of Algiers’. The tour was even better than we hoped for. I can recommend Nehad, her brother Ahmed, and her tour company Algerian Maze, unconditionally - the highlight of our visit to Algeria.
