Excellent excursions with our private driver Alla, really professional, available and extremely kind. Everything was perfect with a very attractive price. We were able to visit the Bardo Museum, Carthage, Sidi Bou Said and El Jem. Thanks again and we recommend 100% Othentic Travel!

Beautiful excuse, to do without hesitation. I recommend that you visit with Taha the Travel Guide. Beautiful and enriching cultural discovery thanks to Taha.
Excursion made with a private driver (of exceptional culture) "Ahmed" recommended by HEDI receptionist (at the top, smiling and helpful) of the BELISAIRE YASMINE HOTEL in HAMMAMET. On the other hand ⚠️ to the sellers of handcrafted jewelry facing the archaeological site (one in particular that will make you break your arm prices)
Thank you for your review! We hope to welcome you again soon for another adventure!
A memorable excursion! Anis, our guide, accompanied us on an itinerary Tunis => Carthage => Sidi Bou Said. His explanations were clear, complete and precise both on the route but also on the history of Tunisia. He loves his country and it shows. Thanks also to Bachir, our driver, who took us to the different places without any problem.
Very interesting for history buffs. Super knowledgeable guide, diverse tour, good meal. The call to prayer at 4 p.m. from the top of the minarets, really interesting
This day trip was my favorite of all the excursions offered by Othentic. Abdallah was an excellent guide and allowed us the pace we needed to climb the steep streets and take in all the views. He also kindly took a lot of photos of us, assuring that we went away with many family group pics. I enjoyed the very old and historic tea shop. We were able to rest there for a while, which I appreciated and enjoyed.
Was keen to see Sidi Bou Said as it looked so pretty in the photographs - the reality was completely different. Built on a steep hill and accessed from an absolutely packed car park where tourist buses stood cheek by jowl. Very uncomfortable and the temp was in the 30s......couldn't stand far away enough from anything to get a good pic....also, access from the car park to the main street was through the local Souk, with only enough wiggle room between the stalls for one abreast. To have taken the photograph that accompanies this Trip Detail the photographer would have had to clear the street. Having been and not seen much more than people's shoulders I would think very carefully before attempting to visit again. Perhaps if you could access a tour that commenced very early in the morning that might help.
Great tour with a great guide. The guide Belgacem picked us up directly from the hotel and then we set off straight towards Tunis with our great driver. With his great historical knowledge, all the places worth seeing in Carthage and Tunis were even more impressive. He gave us enough time everywhere so that we could enjoy the trip in peace. On our next trip to Tunisia we will definitely do another tour with him. Thank you Henry & Yasmin
Fantastic experience! Our guide Abdalah was awesome - very knowledgeable, personable and genuinely concerned that we have a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!
