Why we created this trip

We created this trip to show that Algiers is far more than its monuments. The city is understood by walking it, by listening to its stories, by stepping into its workshops and by taking the time to look at the Mediterranean from its heights. In a few days we wanted to bring together its heritage, its crafts, its music and its contrasts, so that the capital reveals itself as a city that is lived in, not only visited.

Why you'll love this trip

  • Guided tour of the Casbah and a hands-on workshop with a craftsman.
  • A day on the coast between Tipaza, Cherchell and the Tomb of the Christian.
  • A live chaâbi music evening built into the trip.
