- Medina of Tunis - This expansive labyrinth of historic streets and alleys stands as one of North Africa’s most remarkable medieval medinas and a true gem of Tunisia. It hosts a variety of covered markets offering everything from footwear to shisha, alongside lively cafes, artisan-filled alleyways, and residential zones marked by large, vibrantly painted doors. Scattered throughout are historic palaces, hammams, mosques, and madrassas (schools for studying the Koran), many adorned with intricate tiles, carved stucco, and marble columns.
- La Goulette - This suburban area is famous for its constant vibrancy that fills the streets year-round. The seaside is lined with a succession of cafe and restaurant terraces.
- Site Archeologique de Carthage - The archaeological site of Carthage, located within the modern city of Carthage, Tunisia, has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979.
- Sidi Bou Said - Known for its iconic blue and white hues, cobblestone streets, and stunning views of azure waters, the cliff-top village of Sidi Bou Said is among Tunisia’s most picturesque locations. Its unique architecture blends Ottoman and Andalusian styles, a legacy of the Spanish Muslim influx in the 16th century.
- The National Bardo Museum - Situated in Tunis, the Bardo Museum is one of Africa’s largest and most esteemed museums. It boasts an impressive array of Roman mosaics, as well as Phoenician, Punic, Islamic, and medieval artifacts, showcasing the region’s rich history. Housed in a former beylical palace, this museum offers a fascinating exploration of ancient civilizations and Tunisia’s history through its exceptional art pieces.

This is a perfect... - This is a perfect combination of tours to explore Tunisia. The Bardo Museum surprised me a lot with exceptional mosaics and beautiful interiors. I recommend drinking coffee here. The guide is a professional one, capable of answering all your questions. The car was comfy. There was not enough time in Sidi Bou Said; 45 minutes is too short. The village itself is beautiful, inspiring to rest in a coffee place or shop for souvenirs.

A day of history, culture and unique views - We spent a wonderful day visiting the Medina of Tunis, Sidi Bou Said and Carthage. The climate was warm but pleasant, made even more pleasant by the presence of our guide Issam, a competent person, prepared and very determined in the movements, a quality that allowed us to optimize the times.
We talked to him about everything in Italian, but the guide is also recommended for those who prefer French or English, as Issam speaks naturally in both languages. His knowledge of local history and traditions enriched every stage of the route, transforming a simple excursion into an authentic journey into Tunisian culture.
Highly recommended for those who want to live a complete experience, well organized and full of charm.

Private tour. - Our guide was called Selim and he was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited. We were taken to an Tunisian restaurant for lunch which was for a traditional lunch, it was very interesting and nice but it was being hosted by Selim that made it into an interesting and informative event. We all enjoyed the whole day and the history of the places we visited. Would highly recommend.

Solo no stress exploration - My original plan was to hire a car but realised too late I needed an international driving licence. My main aim was spending extra time at Carthage and checking out on this tour, was offered an English speaking driver only option which was perfect.
Khemais picked me up from Sousse and a couple of hours later were ticking off my Carthage wish list. Khemais knew the best sequence and good places to photograph the Punic port etc. Dropped off at the entrance, I could explore at my own pace and would be there when I came out of the exit. Extra add ons like the Aqueduct and American Cemetery were not an issue.
A visit to Sidi Bou Said was made easy with an agreed pick up point plus shaping my own itinerary meant I could spend a little longer at the Bardo museum.
I sure the tour is a good taster if the original itinerary is followed but for someone like me with a bias to history. This option was ideal. I’m glad I didn’t hire a car, driving around Tunis would have stresses me out!

Northern Tunisia - Beautiful discovery of northern Tunisia with a driver and guide just for us.
The Bardo Museum is absolutely sensational! Best preserved mosaics and superb sculptures, all in a very rich environment.
The medina of Tunis and its souks are pleasant but without much originality.
Carthage on the other hand is to be seen absolutely for who loves antiquity. The Phoenician ruins join the Roman ruins and plunge us into the heart of the city's history.
Sidi Bou Said, a real gem on top of a hill, is worth a visit. We loved walking among the blue and white houses and the small shops all more beautiful than the last.
Our driver picked us up in Sousse in the morning then waited for us throughout the day to lead us from one place to another without fatigue before returning us to safe port in the evening, a big thank you to him.
Our guide made us discover this part of the country with great kindness. He was a real culture well and we spent a very nice day with him.
