Best of Algiers Tour

At 9 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Algiers and drive to the old town of the Algerian capital.

We'll start our tour with a guided visit around the Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with historical, artistic, and cultural significance. The tour includes a walk through narrow streets styled in traditional Arab architecture, discussing the neighborhood's history tied to Mediterranean trade.

The Kasbah tour continues next to the Ketchaoua Mosque, originating in the 15th century, where we'll stop to admire the striking blue, green, and violet tiles on its façade.

Next, we'll visit the minor Basilica of Our Lady of Africa. While observing its architectural details, we'll discuss its connections to the Basilica of Notre Dame de la Garde in Marseille.

From the steps of the Basilica, enjoy a panoramic view of the Bay of Algiers. After this, we’ll return to the city center for one hour of leisure time. Following lunch, we'll proceed to the Hamma Botanical Garden, a public park known for its fragrant flowers. The tour concludes at the Martyrs' Monument, ideal for panoramic photos, commemorating Algeria's Independence from France, inaugurated on the 20th anniversary.

Finally, we'll return to your hotel in Algiers, arriving at 5 pm.
