Very nice experience, the... - Very nice experience, the excursion was as promised. We visited all the major sites and learned about their history. Our guide, NAWFEL, was very informed and friendly. Extra bonus: Surprisingly, although we had booked the English tour, Nawfel speaks Greek fluently, so we had the tour in greek! If you are interested in that, ask for Nawfel specifically!!

Worth the trip - Despite spending a lot of time in the vehicle, it was worth it to see such a variety of sights - all three with their own appeal. The colosseum was particularly interesting. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the vehicle nice and cool in the summer heat.

Tunisian Jems - Kairouan, one of the most significant destinations in the Islamic world & the spiritual heart of Tunisia. Logistically, used up most of a day to see the Grand Mosque, oldest in African, and visited El Jem — No matter how you look at it, the Amphitheater of El Jem is a "must visit". End the tour by visiting the lovely costal city of Monastir.
