this sprawling labyrinth of ancient streets and alleys is one of the most impressive medieval medinas in North Africa and one of Tunisia's great treasures. It's home to numerous covered souks selling everything from shoes to shisha, as well as bustling cafes, alleyways full of artisans at work, and residential areas punctuated by large, brightly painted doorways. Historic palaces, hammams, mosques and madrassas (schools for the study of the Koran) are scattered throughout, many are richly decorated with tiles, carved stucco and marble columns.
this suburban district is renowned for the perpetual animation that reigns in its streets, all year round. The terraces of cafes and restaurants follow one another by the sea
The archaeological site of Carthage is a site scattered in the current city of Carthage (Tunisia) and classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979.
With its distinctive blue and white colors, cobbled streets and breathtaking glimpses of azure waters, the cliff-top village of Sidi Bou Said is one of the most beautiful places in Tunisia. Its distinctive architecture is a mix of Ottoman and Andalusian, the result of the influx of Spanish Muslims in the 16th century.

A fabulous day with my guide Fahmi who showed me Bardo museum, Tunis Medina, and Carthage sites with a delicious lunch in La Goulette. Fahmi was excellent, knows a lot of history and answers questions about all the historical sites and artifacts. A great experience covering all the must see sites around Tunis
Imen was a wonderful tour and very knowledgeable about the culture and history of Tunis & Carthage. She was very kind and showed me excellent historical sites and locations. Mr. Fatih was an excellent driver.
BOBO WAS FABULOUS!! We had the absolute best time. She was knowledgeable, kind, accommodating, funny, attentive and just plain wonderful!!! We will request her again and again! AND recommend her!!
The tour agency was absolutely amazing! Not only was this tour so informative led by BouBou, she booked another tour to El Jem and Hammamet led by Narjess who is truly my new best friend! Also ask for your driver to be Rabii! The best tour ever!
We spent an amazing day with our guide, Alex. He is extremely knowledgeable of his city and its history. We learned so much more than if we had done this on our own. The restaurant was excellent. The driver was safe and brought us to all sites.
This is wonderful tour to book if you only have a brief stay in Tunis. You get to see the “greatest hits” in one day. Baligh shares his wealth of knowledge helping you not only see but also understand the history behind the sites you will visit. Highly recommended!
Amazing experience! Yaya was my tour guide and he was amazing and very informative! Anwar was the driver and he made sure we had a very safe trip
Wow! What a great day! I originally considered a half day experience and I’m so glad I ended up choosing the full day Bardo Museum, Medina, lunch, Carthage and Sidi Bou Said tour! It was a full day of fun and sites you cannot miss if in Tunis! Our English speaking guide, Boutheina (Bah-boo) was the best! She made the day exciting and fun! Her knowledge of the history and culture of Tunisia is top notch. She was excellent and now I have a better appreciation for the importance of Tunisia throughout history. I never would have gone to the Bardo museum on my own and it is a must see! The most extensive collection of mosaics in the world. My mind was blown away. Bah-boo then took us to the Tunis Medina which is also a UNESCO site. She asked if we were interested in buying anything in particular, made suggestions, and then guided our experience so we were not taken advantage of and insured we bought quality items. I never would have felt comfortable shopping in the Medina had it not been for Bah-boo. My husband bought Tunisian sandals and I bought wonderful perfumes! Now we have quality souvenirs that we will treasure. Next we had the BEST Tunisian fish lunch. I’d go back to that restaurant again and again! The tour of Carthage was very interesting because we had learned so much during the day leading up to Carthage and had a good foundation of the history from our day before we arrived. The last stop, Sidi Bou Said, was a fun way to end the day. I cannot say enough praise for Bah-boo. She was personable, fun, knowledgeable, made sure we were comfortable and incorporated some free time into our day to explore some on our own as well. DEFINITELY book this full day tour. A great experience!
My guide was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable, she never rushed me in show me the little gems that most people will not be able to be shown unless you're going with a proper guide like this one. I will not hesitate to contract this travel agent as they do have a very personalised service and pro approach I never ever go twice to the same country but I will definitely come back here, as has left a very sweet taste my mouth
Excellent guide, knows his subject very well, very interesting route, very good driver Very good dinner
