** IF YOU ARE ON A CRUISE SHIP , YOU ARE LIKELY NOT ALLOWED TO USE A TOUR GUIDE ON YOUR OWN *** Hello, I am Wassim! I was born and raised in Algiers, Algeria. I am a language enthusiast and I speak 6 languages fluently, including Chinese which basically was a self-challenge. I am deeply passionate about travels and so far I have visited 140+ countries , which I believe has helped me to become the person I am today. I consider myself to be open-minded, easy-going, flexible and understanding. This allows me to adapt to any kind of travelling styles from backpacker on budget to luxurious travellers. I graduated as a valedictorian from Algiers Translation and Interpreting department in 2012, I have acquired a very rich experience overseas working for multinational companies and the more I travelled the more I realized many people did not know much about my country. So I decided to start offering tours in 2018 to give Algeria its proper and accurate image to the world, it is such an enjoyable work that I have quit my corporate world job to be a full time tour guide and show travelers the most popular spots of my city and country as well as the hidden gems. I would be happy to be your guide and help you customize your trip according to your needs and requirements. My Motto is: "Come as a tourist, and leave as a friend". Looking forward to meeting you soon! BACHELOR DEGREE IN TRANSLATION AND INTERPRETING NONE

Algiers is the largest city and capital of Algeria. This city is a real gem and one of the world's most underrated capitals. With its big French-built boulevards and French-style buildings all around the city centre, the historical and traditional neighbourhood along the hillside, the Casbah of Algiers which offers a spectacular panoramic view over the whole city, and a UNESCO world heritage site, it is quite a destination.
Excellent tour. It was a perfect tour that provided the background to help us understand and appreciate the Cabash. Our pleasant surprise was the Martyrs Monument and its museum. It gave us a much better appreciation of the history of Algieria. Kudos to our guide for keeping the tour really interesting throughout. Recommended.
Wassim was an amazing guide and I cannot recommend him enough! He was extremely knowledgable, pleasant and hospitable. He'll be the best guide you can wish for in Algiers!

My family and I took the Tour of Algiers with Yazid (through Wassim) and it was an amazing experience. Yazid was patient, very informative, flexible and had great English, Arabic and French. This tour hit all the highlights of the city while being fun and personable.
In todays tour, I will pick you up around 9 am from your hotel and we will be headed to the Upper Casbah. Here we will begin our visit and walk down the narrow streets of the Casbah filled with history and visit some craftsman shops and some street food if available. We will then visit the Mustapha Pacha Palace and walk passed the Ketchaoua Mosque, walk around the main plaza and make our way up the Basilica of Notre Dame for a visit. Afterwards we will have a lunch break either traditional food or Algerian BBQ. (optional) We will visit Martyrs monument and end the visit in Hamma botanical garden. After I will be dropping you off at your hotel.
