Djémila the Beautiful one, Latin: Cuicul or Curculum, formerly Cuicul, is a small mountain village in Algeria, near the northern coast east of Algiers, where some of the best preserved Berbero-Roman ruins in North Africa are found. It is situated in the region bordering the Constantinois and Petite Kabylie (Basse Kabylie). In 1982, Djémila became a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its unique adaptation of Roman architecture to a mountain environment. Significant buildings in ancient Cuicul include a theatre, two fora, temples, basilicas, arches, streets, and houses. The exceptionally well preserved ruins surround the forum of the Harsh, a large paved square with an entry marked by a majestic arch.

We had a great experience with our driver Haroun and guide Billel, who are both super kind and interesting people with unique passions and interests. They picked us up in Algiers and we enjoyed an excellent visit to Djemila guided by Billel, who was very knowledgable about the history and sites there, followed by a continuation to Constantine. Highly recommended!!!

The Roman ruins here are out of this world - literally. It is absolutely mind-blogging how well preserved the city remains. You could easily spend a full day, or even an entire trip marveling at this connection to the earlier times of civilization. Our tour guide, Billel, was excellent and made this visit extraordinarily interesting and fully curated to our requests. FancYellow was by far the best decision we made other than choosing to visit the magnificent country of Algeria. Highly recommended for all visitors to use FancYellow - your trip won't be the same without them!

Overall great support (LOIs) and flexibility from this tour provider, we originally planned 4 days in Algeria but we had to completely change our schedule as our inbound flight was cancel. Oussama (Fancyellow) was extremely helpful rearranging our tours and maximizing our remaining time.
