Private Trip to Timgad with Zinou - Travelling with Riwaya Travel was a real pleasure. Their private excursion to Timgad was well planned and very rewarding. Roman ruins are a must, and we learned so much from our guide.

Wonderfull Romans archaeological site - Djemila is a very historic ancient Roman site and a World Cultural Heritage. There are almost zero tourists. Every brick and every stone tells a story. It is about an hour away from Constantine. The archaeological site is located on a hillside. The photography is very layered. The entrance fee does not cost 1 euro. It is an archaeological site worth visiting.
