Great Guide! Great experience - Turek was very good at explaining the sites and was able to answer all our questions. He took us to all the relevant cites and to the lesser known and lesser kept up early Christian historical cites.

Great day with Tarek,... - Great day with Tarek, visited many sites that would not have been easily accessible if we did it ourselves. Tarek gave us many insights and answered our many questions, which really brought the sites to life. Really worthwhile to do this as a tour.

Very interesting trip but not long enough - Ancient Carthage is on the outskirts of Tunis. The ruins are in good condition for their age, and the signage is in English as well as other languages so it was easy to see what was what. My only gripe about this visit was we did not stay here long enough before moving on to our next destination.
