Itinerary
Start your day at the Great Mosque of Kairouan, a UNESCO treasure and masterpiece of Islamic architecture. Wander through the medina’s vibrant alleyways, where colorful markets, spices, and handmade goods await. Visit the 9th-century Basins of the Aghlabids — ancient reservoirs reflecting the city’s grandeur — and admire the charming Medina houses with traditional tilework and motifs. Immerse yourself in daily life, meet friendly locals, and taste authentic Tunisian cuisine in cozy cafés. With stories and insights from your experienced host-driver, you’ll uncover the rich spirit and timeless beauty of Kairouan — a city steeped in history and culture.
Step into the mighty El Jem Amphitheatre, one of the best-preserved Roman arenas in the world. This world-famous heritage site once held over 30,000 spectators and still echoes the spirit of ancient gladiator games. Walk through its grand stone corridors, explore underground tunnels, and stand in the arena where history comes alive. Visit the nearby museum, home to stunning Roman mosaics and artifacts. With your guide-driver’s insights, El Jem becomes more than a monument — it becomes a story of Tunisia’s imperial past, carved in timeless stone.
Discover the coastal charm of Monastir, where history meets the Mediterranean. Begin at the iconic Ribat, a centuries-old fortress with panoramic sea views and spiritual significance. Stroll through the vibrant marina and enjoy the peaceful blend of blue waters, palm trees, and whitewashed buildings. Visit the Bourguiba Mausoleum, a symbol of Tunisia’s modern era, with its golden dome and marble details. Monastir is where culture, coast, and calm unite — a refreshing stop full of beauty and heritage, made richer by your host’s local insights.

Omar was a very good guide. We stopped at the roadside and watched a local lady cooking bread. The Medina was interesting could have easily got lost if we were on our own. El Jem and museum were amazing.
Great day with amazing sights and history. Our guide Rajwen had good communication and was very flexible with timing, showing us all the spots we wanted to see without rush. Some amazing food spots and shops along the way! Highly recommend it!
Very interesting visit with our friendly guide Mohamed Ali, whom I highly recommend.
This was a lovely personal full day tour. Our driver Noman was very knowledgeable and friendly and made it a day to remember. Would definitely recommend
I had booked the VIP private tour via Get Your Guide, the process was easy simply finding the tour and booking it. I had picked a pick up location slightly away from our Hotel as our Hotel was just out of VOF‘s pick up radius. However, the day before Khalil who was our allocated guide, reached out via WhatsApp confirming our exact pick up spot and we ended up getting picked up from our hotel. Now coming to the day of the tour, our guide was on time… and where do I begin, Khalil was an amazing guide, my wife and I had an amazing time. He had great energy and it was an absolute pleasure having him as our guide. He gave us a lot of insight into Tunesia and the culture, he looked after us and we had many great conversations. Absolute class guide. Now, onto the tour itself. We headed to Kairouan and visited the Grand Mosque and afterwards had a stroll around the old town. I won’t spoiler, but it was great. After Kairouan, we visited El Jem and the Colosseum (very impressive), my wife and I were able to take many great pictures. In El Jem, we also visited the Museum, which mainly showcases mosaics retrieved from the surrounding roman villas that were dug up. The museum may have been my silent favourite, very peaceful and historical place. Last but not least, we visited Monastir and it’s castle. On the castles highest tower we had an amazing and picturesque view of Monastir and the surrounding area. All in all a great tour and I enjoyed every bit of it, again our guide Khalil made a great experience and my wife and I made great memories and also met a lot of great people. The tour was around 8-9hrs and involved a lot of driving, but I‘d argue that the drives allow you to see a lot of country side Tunesia and it’s day to day live, as you will drive on country roads mainly. I can only recommend Voice of Freedom, they have been great!!
skip this! $160 just for a driver---and nothing else is included---none of the venue tickets, no lunch, not even water, NOTHING! rent a car and travel to these locations by yourself. Also, I did not appreciate how the company handled my initial review. First someone from their team reached out to me to let me know they let go of the driver (this was not the driver's fault and I was appalled this was the response). And then they requested I take down the review and now I see they got it erased by TRIP ADVISOR for no substantial reason.

Amine has great knowledge of El Jem and Kaitouan. He took us in a fabulous tour allowing stops for photos. A great day. Thanks so much Amine.
Thought we were on a group tour but Amine came ahead of schedule, very courteous, friendly, knowledgeable & just the best guide I've ever had. He was a great driver, as we had taken 3 taxis prior in the week & our lives were in their hands. Speeding & reckless driving, worse than Italy & Romania. But Amine stuck to speed limits & a courteous driver. Kairouan was amazing, breathtaking medina & mosque. Lovely winding streets with locals selling their wares in small shops. Next was El Jem where the worlds third largest colliseum is and nearly 2000 years old, in great condition. Stops along the way for refreshments. We decided to skip Monastir as had done enough. If booking this trip or any others through Get your guide ask for Amine, you won't be disappointed.
Thank you again Bader for this great excursion, we really had a great time! Everything was great, whether it was organization, atmosphere or discoveries. It was great to live this, so a big thank you to you 🙏
I highly recommend, We were driven with Bader, who was particularly friendly. The landscapes are exceptional. I highly invite you to do it!!
