Great canyon and abandoned Berber town in Eastern Algeria - Ghoufi is a really amazing place and landscape all together. Hakim, the guide, and Haroune, the driver, were really good travel mates. Very kind and chill, and informative at times! The drive is a little long (around 4 hours to get there from Constantine), but the tour was very flexible for the most part (with a couple of short stops). It is one of the best tours and daytrips one can do in the eastern Algeria and Constantine. I totally recommend.
