Unforgettable amazing experience! - This excursion was amazing. We watched a lot of Youtube videos of both Dougga and Bulla Regia before booking this excursion, and none of them did this experience justice. The ruins of Dougga are far more extensive and impressive in person. And the same with the ruins at Bulla Regia: the mosaics that are there are so much more amazing in person. We spent plenty of time at both places to see everything, learn about their history, and take lots of photos. There were relatively few other people at these sites when we visited, but we went in the off-season (January) for that reason. Our guide Scander and our driver Madi did a great job of getting us there and back, and Scander was totally knowledgable about everything we saw. We also got to see the Medina at the town of Testour, and had some great street food there. Overall it was an unforgettable experience and was one of the highlights of our two-week visit to Tunisia. My wife and I both highly recommend this excursion!

Review of Private Excursion from Tunis to Testour, Dougga, and Bulla Regia - My husband and I recently enjoyed a private excursion from Tunis to Testour, Dougga, and Bulla Regia, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The highlight of our journey was our guide, Baligh, whose professionalism and warmth made the day exceptional. • Baligh was incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring that we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. • His deep knowledge of history and archaeology brought each site to life. From the Roman ruins of Dougga to the unique underground villas of Bulla Regia, his explanations were insightful and engaging. • He also shared fascinating details about Testour, enriching our understanding of the cultural and historical significance of the town. We appreciated not only his expertise but also his genuine enthusiasm and kindness, which made the excursion feel personal and memorable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tunisia and especially encourage travelers to request Baligh as their guide. His passion for history and dedication to his guests truly elevate the experience.

Great Tour - We had a fantastic tour with our guide Iskander. He is very passionate about history of Tunisia, and has endless patience for all of your questions. Our driver Mohammad was great - careful, patient, never speeding or being upset with the traffic. It matters a lot when you have a long day on the road. I travelled with my 70 year old parent, and want to note that if your parent has some mobility issues this trip is still a very good option - walking on sites is very manageable, there are plenty of comfort breaks, the car is clean and comfortable, and what you see will stay with your forever! Thank you, Iskander and Mohammad!

Trip to Testour, Dougga and Bulla Regia - We had a fantastic time visiting the ruins of Dougga and Bulla Regia. They are extremely extensive and impressive and a must see for anyone interested in ancient history. Our guide Iskandar was extremely knowledgeable about the sites we visited as well as the modern politics and issues of Tunisia and provided so much value to the sites. Our driver Anwar was equally great and took us safely and comfortable from place to place Overall we would highly recommend to others!

Awesome Day filled with History - Wow. What a great day exploring two amazing locations. Bulla and Dougga have so much to see. Well worth the long day most of which involves driving. Thankfully we were in a mini van which was spacious and clean. Our tour guide was accommodating and had a lot to say. I would just have skipped Testour. This tour was definitely worth it. A must if you like history.

Very interesting excursion - Testour with its mosque built by both muslim and jews expelled from Spain in the 16th and 17th century. Dougga. The best preserved roman ruins in the Maghreb. Bulla Regia and its unusual buried roman house. Faisal was an excellent and professional guide. We had a very good and patient driver as well.

The driver was punctual... - The driver was punctual and safe. The stop at the mosque is very brief so barely worth mentioning in the tour. The time at El Jem and Bulla Regia were good but felt rushed. We departed at 8 am and returned before 3 pm. If you’re wanting to go to El Jem and Bulla Regia you’re better off finding a bus tour that will be cheaper.
