I am extremely pleased with FancyYellow! I recommend you contact them directly, however, instead of booking a tour with a western tour company that contracts with FancyYellow. Cut out the middleman and save $$$!!!
Their English was outstanding. They were kind and helpful. I hope to use them again because I truly enjoyed Algeria.
