A Truly Enriching Experience with Nouha – A Guide Like No Other! - I feel truly blessed to have had Nouha as my tour guide during my visit to Algeria. From the very beginning, she brought such a vibrant energy – smart, funky, and wonderfully talkative – that instantly set a warm and welcoming tone for the whole experience.
Nouha has a beautiful way of blending knowledge with storytelling. Her passion for Algerian history and culture is contagious, and she shares it in such a relaxed, yet deeply engaging way. Every moment with her was filled with thoughtful insight, good moods, and genuine care.
Thank you, Nouha, for your inspiring stories, your effort to make the tour both informative and peaceful, and for introducing me to the true spirit of Algerian hospitality. You taught me so much and left me with memories I will cherish.
Keep smiling, keep sharing your passion – the world is indeed at your feet. It was an absolute privilege to have you as my guide.
With gratitude, Don

Very knowledgeable and personable guide. - Highly recommended guide! Riyadh was a very knowledgeable and personable guide. We were picked up from the airport and then taken to our hotel to drop off our luggage and refresh ourselves and then we headed out to the city. We visited the old UNESCO Casbah, walk through the French quarters, and then visited the martyrs memorial and museum, where we learned about the Algerian independence movement. Throughout our tour, Riyadh was greeted friendly by many people! His English was excellent and he reflectively answered our many questions. Our driver was promptly at every pick up point.

Tour group went out of... - Tour group went out of their way to help me as a solo traveller visiting the country for the first time. The tour guide on the day was very educated and spoke fluent English, providing clear historical context and interesting facts. Pick up and drop off from the hotel was all arranged as part of the tour price. The metro rides were also included. On the day they were happy to be flexible to fit around my needs.

Knowledgeable friendly guide who also takes good pictures! - Riyad is a wonderful your guide. He knows the city inside out, gives good advice and is such a lighthearted, easy going, flexible educated person. He’s just good company and easy to converse with. He’d also talented with the camera 🤩 Meaning, not only did I enjoy my time in Algiers, I’ve also got great pictures to show the world on social media and that remind me of the trip. Riyad is just wonderful. I’d do more tours with him when I return to Algeria.

Best Tour Guide !! - We arrived in Algiers after a 24 hr flight delay in Tunis. Our guide Riad in Algiers was constantly in touch with us in planning our day tour. One say trip got divided into 2 halves because of our arrival. Riad was kind enough to take us around and explained the history in detail. A true gentleman and the best guide . Very informative. His English is impeccable. Thank you Riad for your help and a wonderful experience in Algiers.
