Algeria made easy! - Fancy Yellow organised a great trip for me - from the initial emails about travelling to Algeria and my requirements for visa help, to itinerary changes, etc, they were super patient and helpful, and then when I met them in person, great guys! They understand the needs of a westerner and the trip to Tipasa was fantastic. The driver we had was very safe and also kind, and the whole experience was great. He took us to a beach so we could swim - nothing was too much trouble! He also helped me buy flowers for a friend on the way home. I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Fancy Yellow. Algeria is a tricky country to research because of the lack of guide books - let these guys be your guides!

Unforgettable Experience with Fancyellow and Our Amazing Guide - We had an absolutely incredible experience with Fancyellow. From the very beginning, they were helpful, responsive, and professional—organizing smooth transfers, assisting us with exchanging money, and always ready to answer any questions we had. Their support made our trip easy and enjoyable from start to finish. Our guide was exceptional—friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Algerian history and culture. One of the highlights of our trip was our visit to Tipaza. The Roman ruins were stunning, with spectacular views over the sea. We went to a fantastic local seafood restaurant where we had one of the best meals of the trip. Fancyellow went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable experience. I highly recommend them to anyone visiting Algeria—you won’t be disappointed

My questions or requests for adjustments to the visit were always readily accommodated and both the driver and tour guide were exceptionally kind. I highly recommend this tour.

- We did the Cerchell-Tipaza-Mausoleum day trip tour and have been really impressed by the extensive deep and detailed knowledge of our guide Zaki. His English skills are excellent and he is so knowledgeable about Algerian history. We really learnt lot, saw beautiful places with thousands of years of history. Our guide had a good feeling of giving us time for ourselves and for sharing information. Regarding the invaluable places and sights my only wish would be that the state of Algeria maybe with some international sponsors together would further investigate the places as I am sure that there is still a lot under the earth to be found.

Fascinating trip to Tipaza - Perfect tour. Friendly guides, occasional treats such as local pastries, never felt under time pressure. I was the only person on the tour which was an unexpected bonus.

We had 3 superb tours in Algeria - We actually did three tours- Tipaza and Cherchell, Algiers and Constantine. We had Jasmine for the first two. We learnt so much from her, and had an entertaining tour. The little touches were great - like making sure we had the opportunity to try local dishes like Borek and giving us great restaurant recommendations. In Constantine, Bilel was our guide and Haroun was our driver. They were both so thoughtful, and really went out of the way to make sure that we had a great experience. Everyone was excellent - the guides were very knowledgeable and we definitely felt like we got a good understanding of Algerian culture, history and life!
