Suspended Above the Gorge
Perched dramatically above the Rhumel Gorge, Constantine is Algeria’s most visually arresting city. Cross the iconic Sidi M'Cid suspension bridge 175 metres above the river, explore the Emir Abdelkader Mosque, and wander the old town’s covered souks.
A highlight is the Palace of Ahmed Bey, a 19th-century masterpiece of Islamic architecture. Your guide, a Constantine native, unlocks access to family-run pastry shops serving djouzia (nougat).
