    Le site de Ghoufi est magnifique. La visite est très agréable, on peut visiter à pied une partie du canyon et monter sur certaines façades pour avoir une belle vue. Je recommande si vous souhaitez voir de beaux paysages. Il y a également quelques commerçants à l'entrée du site si vous souhaitez acheter des souvenirs issus de l'artisanat local. Le conducteur, Nabil, qui m'a accompagné, a été très sympathique, faisant le nécessaire pour que je sois très à l'aise du début à la fin de la journée, et m'a montré de nombreux endroits différents au cours de notre marche dans le canyon pour prendre des photos.

    Ghoufi is a really amazing place and landscape all together. Hakim, the guide, and Haroune, the driver, were really good travel mates. Very kind and chill, and informative at times! The drive is a little long (around 4 hours to get there from Constantine), but the tour was very flexible for the most part (with a couple of short stops). It is one of the best tours and daytrips one can do in the eastern Algeria and Constantine. I totally recommend.

    The pictures really don't do it justice. The Ghoufi Balconies are absolutely stunning, and the hike down into the valley and up to the ruined hotel on the other side was quite exhilarating, while the abandoned village build into the cliffs was like something from a classic adventure movie. Our driver and guide Nadjib was a delight and patiently helped us to improve our awful French and Arabic, as well as introducing us to the highlights and the history of this extraordinary place.
