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.

Thorough and informative tour of Dougga and Bulla Regia - Skander was an excellent and knowledgeable guide who gave us lots of insightful and fascinating detail to bring the ruins of Dougga and Bulla Regia to life. We hadn’t seen any of the subterranean houses and mosaics the likes of which are at bulla regia before, and Dougga’s vast size, uniqueness and impressive state of preservation make it a must see. It was also interesting to see what he had to say about Testour, which we may otherwise have inadvertently missed without Skander. We should also note that his tour and info at Dougga seemed to be far more thorough and comprehensive than those of other groups at the site, speaking to his strong grasp on all things ancient (such was his tour at bulla Regia too) . Would thoroughly recommend to anyone interested in ancient Roman influence in North Africa, or history more generally!

Pleasant and memorable Tunisian day tour - If you are interested in a knowledgeable and thorough historical tour of Testour, Dougga and Bulla Regis, this is the tour you want to book for your next visit to Tunisia. Our guide Ahmed was well prepared, showed up on time, accommodated our requests and had good answers for every question. His language skills were also top notch and he gave great insights into both historical and modern day Tunisia. This tour was worth booking and I would do it again during my next visit.

Amazing guided tour. Knowledgeable guide. We really recommend - We did an amazing guided tour to Bulla Reggia and Dougga with Rabi and Fahmi. We were picked at the hotel very punctually. Ravi drove us everywhere very safely in a well equipped car with air conditioned, while Fahmi explained us culture and geopolitics of contemporary Tunisia. The visit to Bulla Reggia is totally worthy: a hidden gem for the lover or ancient times and mosaics, and you can even walk in the ruins and see the mosaics closely. It’s not crowded at all: we were basically the only ones there. In Dougga, Fahmi explained in detail all the parts of this UNESCO heritage site, its particularities in architecture and history, as well as how did the local population interact with the ruins through the centuries. We ended in Testour for the visit of the mosque with the clock and Hispanic influence in the area. We truly recommend this visit for turists coming to Tunis and wanting to go off the beaten track.

Unforgettable day - The tour started with guide Ahmed and driver Rabii arriving punctually at the door of my hotel. The direction of Rabii is safe and Ahmed has shown himself very friendly and familiar with the history of Tunisia. During the tour, enrich the explanations with small details and curiosities. As a Brazilian who speaks English, the communication was very good. The tour is quiet and individualized, you can safely enter shops to make your shopping (better prices than the tourist Medina of Tunis and Sidi Bou Said!) For those who like to take photos, you will have plenty of time and freedom for it. You can also count on the help of Ahmed, a good photographer. One last tip is to bring some kind of hat or sunscreen, the sun is strong in both archaeological sites.
