Well organized - We had a really good experience with Simba Fun Travel. Everything was well-organized and went smoothly from start to finish. Our guide was kind and made us feel safe and well taken care of. What we really appreciated was the flexibility – we were able to tailor the experience to our needs and preferences, which made the day even more enjoyable. We’re very happy we chose them and would definitely recommend Simba to anyone visiting Sousse!

Lovely tour - Rajouan is a really good guy and very kind… he gave us as much time as we needed to visit the sites (El Jem is awesome and so too is the mosque of Kiarouan) Because of him we had a great tour - thank you 😃 I’d happily recommend Simba Fun Travel as we were given our all the contact details the night before (with drivers name etc) Everything was smooth 😊

A MUST’DO!!! - Amazing places, definitely worth visiting. Aymen was an amazing driver for us as we have booked the private, self’guided tour. He was very polite and answered all our questions regarding the places we were about to visit. We definitely recommend booking with them. Thank you Aymen, keep up the good work!

Amazing day in Tunisia - From the off, Simba Fun Travel were very responsive, friendly and polite (communication happens through WhatsApp only, but is all above board). Always spoke to Taher who answered all.my many queries patiently before I was ready to book the tour and pay the deposit. We stayed on a lovely hotel in Sousse, but always prefer to connect with local tour operators for better value for money tours and to help support local businesses, and Simba Fun Travel didn't disappoint. Our driver was Ramzi. He is very approachable, friendly and always ready to help out (I walk with two walking sticks). His English isn't perfect, but he was able to always put his point across. Nevertheless, we managed to speak French throughout the day which helped me improve my French. The car was modern (rental) and had A/C as promised (very important for Tunisia in June is very hot). He drove well and safely, stopped for coffee break and local sweet purchase when asked with a smile on his face (he's also got a sweet tooth). Drivers are not tour guides, but we had long conversations about Tunisian culture, politics, our personal life, and had lots of laughs and fun. Important to stress that distances from Sousse to Kairouan and El Jem are long, roughly 1.5hrs to each point when considering traffic. We'd researched this using Google maps, so there's quite a bit of sitting in the car, but Ramzi always tried to accommodate us. The sights are absolutely lovely. Kairouan mosque is beautiful and the medina too. We couldn't walk mu h, so Ramzi drove round for us to see it. He did take us to a local carpet shop where we went up lots of stairs to get a high overview of the mosque, which was nice, and satisfying through a sales pitch from a carpet salesman, but they were all very nice and polite when we decided not to buy anything. A small tip to the old shop owner was not an imposition as we did use his rooftop and he took photos of us and told us a little about the mosque (10Tunisian Dinar=£2.50). On booking the tour, Taher provides you with very detailed information on the many aspects of the tour, including what to wear for the mosque. El Jem was the jewel of the tour. If been to the Roman Colosseum, which was a dream come through, but we weren't allowed to go down to the animals and gladiator underground cells right beneath the arena, and in El Jem we can. We can walk everywhere. No annoying local 'guides' or pushy people about. The security guy helped us find the Underground cell entrance. Both entrances cost 12 Tunisian Dinars. We decided to come back to the hotel and not do Monastir because we were tired, and we don't regret it, the sun is intense, and even though we started at 7am, we arrived back at about 4pm. It was a lovely experience and we highly recommend it without hesitation.

Beautiful day with many impressions - It was a long day, which we shortened a bit ourselves by deleting (a) location(s). Our driver Issam was a friendly and pleasant driver, who could also tell us a lot about what we were going to see or encountered along the way. He was also very happy to help us find the right lunch location, where we could enjoy a Tunisian bbq. Please note, that it is a very long day to view 4 locations. It was nice to be able to explore the country like this.
