Relaxed and in depth historical tour of the Kasbah. Full of culture and a great introduction to Algiers and Algeria. Wonderful - Truly amazing tour, Ahmed was fantastic, knew so much history and local culture. Especially about the Battle of Algiers and the war of independence against France, which I was very interested in and partly why I came to Algeria. I learned so much. He was so kind and accommodating when I ended up being late 😅. Great personality too, we got along very well and was always open to any modifications and needs I may want. He even showed me the metro system at the end when he asked about where I was going next. Full of great advice overall about Algeria and oh, also great recommendations for food. A must recommend for your first day in Algiers.
