Mountains and Berber villages of Tunisia - highly recommend! - I loved the opportunity to go in-land and see the rural and Berber areas of Tunisia. We saw beautiful the aqueduct, town of Zaghouan, the water temple, hammams, Zriba, Takrouna and Hammamet. With a great lunch. Mohamed was knowledgeable and generous, we talked all day about Tunisia and multiple times he offered to do a detour or add in something I found interesting. Hammamet is more touristy so I was not too interested in that, but it is beautiful with a great fort.

Berber villages - Back in time, very beautiful landscapes. Stepped on foot with a shepherd and his sheep because they got in the way. Fun experience It was in a closed 4×4 with 1 driver and 1 guide and a German couple.

Perfect tour for discovering Tunisia - Tour guide Moha and the driver Amer were just very friendly and just great. Moha in particular told us about the history of Tunisia and brought us closer to the places visited. Especially my mother was super satisfied 😅 I would only recommend the two and the whole tour from the bottom of my heart. Keep it up!! 👏

Scenic views, amazing service - Very beautiful views, delicious food, marvellous scenic stops for photos, and very friendly people! Highly recommend. Going in April is perfect as it’s already sunny, but not too hot - perfect temperature with some mild wind.

Fascinating. - I'd give this 4.5 if I could and maybe I should have done more research before I selected this trip. Leaving and returning from Tunis meant a lot of driving. However, the guide and driver were both very kind, and the guide was happy and prepared to answer all my questions, The lunch in one of the villages was great. I enjoyed visiting Hammamet but the highlight was going to the villages (both really ruins) and seeing the ruins of the aquaduct.
