Je suis passée par l'Agence Fancy Yellow pour une visite d'Alger et notamment de la Casbah, du Maqam ashahid et du Jardin d'essai. J'ai passé une excellente journée avec un super guide (big op Imad!) qui connait très bien son sujet et qui raconte de nombreuses anecdotes sur la ville. Concernant l'organisation, tout s'est déroulé comme prévu, un chauffeur est venu me récupérer à mon hôtel à l'heure prévue et m'a déposé à l'endroit où j'avais rdv avec mon guide pour commencer la visite. Vous pouvez booker via cette agence les yeux fermés, ils sont très sérieux, je recommande à 100% et je passerai par eux pour mes prochaines escapades en Algérie.
