A beautiful visit - I had an excellent day, I had a private visit since I was alone with the Guide, very friendly and having a very good knowledge of the place and their history. The Tipaza site is really beautiful, unfortunately we can not see everything because it is huge. Despite everything we take the view!!
Premium benefit, a taxi picked me up at my Pension in the morning, took me to Tipaza then Cherchell, and in the evening back to Pension.
Really feel free to choose this excursion, I recommend.

Informative, Friendly, Safe - We had a very knowledgeable and kind local tour guide. He provided us with a lot of history on the sites visited.
They were able to get a vegetarian lunch for us and make some great recommendations for Algiers. We were two women and felt very safe. Would definitely recommend! An amazing day.

Fancyellow is the best tourcompany in Algeria - Earlier this month I booked a tour to Cherchell and Tipaza with Fancyellow, and I cannot recommend them enough. They are very quick to respond, advise you on what tour would suit you best given how much time you have in Algeria. it’s very easy to arrange a tour with them, and they are always reachable on wats app. Our guide, Zaki, is very knowledgeable, we learned a lot about the history of Algeria as well as its modern times and culture. Our driver was also very friendly. Fancyellow team members are very reliable, flexible, punctual and know a lot about the country, so look no further and book a tour with them if you are in Algeria and you will have a great time exploring this amazing country!

Algeria: a fascinating country - For me, Algeria was an unknown country, not even listed in guidebooks. During my one-week stay, I visited the Algiers city tour, Tipaza and Cherchell tour, and Oran cities, and was impressed by the beautiful scenery, the country's history, and the mysterious experiences during the tour. All the Algerian people are kind and friendly. The guides were all young but knowledgeable, and I felt that they were proud of their country. During my stay, I was captivated by the charm of Algeria. I felt like I wanted to visit other cities. I definitely want to come back again. And I want more Japanese people to know Algeria, which is full of unknown charms. I wish Fancyellow continued success. Thank you for a truly wonderful time.

Discovering Algeria with Fancyellow - We booked all day tours with Fancyellow. One was daily tour in the capital. I can say that these were not like those classic tourist tours. Thanks to the guides Zaki and Riad and the driver Bilal, we felt more like we were spending the day with friends. We saw a lot and learned about the history of Algeria. Vodic took us to a super restaurant for lunch and the food was top. I definitely recommend Fancyellow and thank you for two wonderful days.

Amazing Day! - I had an AMAZING tour with Luna! We had so much fun. It was like spending the day with a good friend. We fit in so much in one day and she is an extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and fun guide. Our driver was also a pleasure to work with. Everything went well from pick up to drop off. I could not recommend this tour enough! PLUS she was so patient with my love/need to pet every cat we saw 😂

A perfect day trip from Algiers - As we only had a few days to spend in Algiers, we decided to book a tour to get to know some of the attractions nearby. Definitely, this tour to Cherchell and Tipasa represented the highlight of our brief visit to Algeria.
Great value for money, swift organisation and good communication made it the ideal choice to explore and learn a bit more of this gigantic and fascinating country.
Our driver, Bilal, was nice and super punctual and our guide, Loubna, who we met in Tipasa, extremely friendly, knowledgeable, but also straight to the point when needed (as we are no experts in archaeology, we appreciated her concise yet insightful historical explanations, but especially the more detailed socio-cultural context descriptions). “Unfortunately” (as we did not have the chance to try some more delicious Algerian food), when we did the tour it was the first day of Ramadan - however, this gave us yet another chance to further discuss interesting cultural topics with our guide!
Summing up, a very reliable and recommended company and an amazing experience in Algeria - the Roman ruins in Tipasa are truly set in a spectacular environment!!!

The best way to know Algeria - We took Fancyellow tours for half of our stay in Algeria and it's the best way to know the country. The tour guides are really knowledgeable, fun and kind. The company also helped me by writing a host letter that helped me process my Algerian travel visa.
Algeria is a beautiful country but as a tourist it's not a country where you can intuitively find things on your own, specially if you are not fluent in Arabic or French.
We did the Algiers, Tipaza and Cherchell, Djemila and Constantine tours and we were delighted by them all.
The company also helped us by handling all of our taxi transfers and picked us up at the airports.
