The city isn't very big , the safety overall is nice and most of the people here are polite and quite,though sometimes it can be uncomfortable to walking around in shaddy areas or because catcalling (though it only accure in late hours or shaddy places)

It depends on the place you are, but it's generally fine. You need to be careful as you would anywhere in the world. Prefer well-known and lively places like Val d'Hydra, Ben Aknoun, Hydra, Dely Brahim, Sidi Yahia, and Algiers Center.
Posted: April 17, 2025Idk because I don't take public transportation much, I don't live alone and I don't come home late at night so I'm not entirely sure..but Ik it's not the WORST but it's not the best either، all u have to do is be careful and stay away from suspicious people 🙂
Posted: April 1, 2025As someone who lived at Tlemcen for my entire life since I was born , I would say that for a man it would be an average experience, but for women I don't recommend it , you'll be sexually harassed by a lot of men outside as well as robbed , and at night it's even worse , so be careful!!!
Posted: March 23, 2025You can walk covered in gold and no one would actually care, its a safe town people are very hospital and kind and they love strangers and visitors, you're more likely to be offered free food or gifts if you're a visitor than if you're a local

It was safe fun splendid . Nothing to say really. It’s not expensive at all and not very crowded.the Virgin Mary statue is pretty interesting to check out. Also moskes and ancient structures are worth the visit.

I felt completely safe and at home while exploring la CASBAH. I highly recommend trying the haik, a traditional Algerian garment, and kheit errouh jewelry to fully embrace the cultural experience. The view from Stah El-Bahdja is breathtaking, and you can also enjoy delicious traditional food at reasonable prices. There are many historical houses worth visiting, each with its own unique story. I visited "Dar Lallahoum "with my sister and friend, took some pictures, and shared them. I strongly recommend visiting in a group you won’t regret it🥰
