“Amazing experience, the guide Jibrane explained all the history about the city and the archeological sites. Very immersive tour!!”
Explore Tunis Medina with certified guide Saber Arraki, from Zitouna Mosque and old souks to quiet courtyards and local history.
“Can’t recommend this tour enough! Fantastic way to explore the Medina of Tunis with a very knowledgeable guide. I loved learning about the culture and history, and the guide pointed me in the direction of a fantastic lunch restaurant following. A must do if you are staying in Tunis.”
Review of Tunisia’s 2-day Sahara VIP tour from Sousse, including El Jem, Matmata, Douz, Chott el Jerid, oases, Kairouan, and added costs.
“The whole experience was excellent. You can reach places that are hard to reach by yourself. Yemmen was a great driver and helped with questions and taking me to authentic food places. He makes as many stops as you need.”
Cycle Carthage’s Punic ports, Roman baths, and ancient ruins with a guide on this relaxed three-hour Tunis tour.
“Guide was great and knew a lot, which is really helpful since some of the sites don't have a lot of information at them. Most of the route is pretty flat and easy to bike, but there is one steep section, so consider the e-bike option if you're not used to biking on hills.”
Review of Djerba’s small-group island tour, with Guellala Museum, Djerbahood, Houmt Souk, crocodile park, lunch, and practical tips.
“L'excursion a très mal démarré avec un manque d'information de l'agence auprès du chauffeur. Avec plusieurs échanges en amont avec l'agence, il a été convenu d'un rdv à 8h00 à la reception soit das le hall de l'hôtel. Après plus de 20 minutes d'attente et tentative de joindre l'agence sur whatsapp aucun réponse sachant que l'excursion avait déjà été payée. Et aucun contact de leur appel à l'inverse pour nous prévenir que le chauffeur était présent. Il s'est avéré qu'il était dans le parking sans penser nous informer ou même venir nous récupérer insistant sur le fait qu'il ne connaissait pas la chambre. Le programme de la journée n'était pas…”
Explore Tunisia in seven days, from Roman ruins and Berber ksars to Sahara salt flats, with private pickup and expert local guides.
“We were in a bind and didn’t know where to go…and we found this trip on Booking.com and it has been one pleasant surprise after another, I am so glad that we booked it.”
Review of a private Tunisia tour from Hammamet to Kairouan, El Jem, and Monastir, with historic sites, transport, costs, and practical tips.
“Pickup time exact. However car was very old with dirty windows, broken window handle and torn seats. Not good value for money. The driver was very polite but drove dangerously. Kairouan was interesting but we would like more time. The same for El Jem. In general the sights were interesting but the distances are very long and we didn't have enough time to enjoy the places.”
Explore Kairouan’s Islamic monuments and El Jem’s Roman amphitheatre on an 8-hour guided trip from Hammamet with lunch included.
“Plusieurs choses m'ont déplues dans cette excursion : - En dehors de la taille du bus (inconfortable d'ailleurs) et donc du groupe (40 personnes), - nous étions peu de francophones donc le guide donnait moins d'explications en français alors que nous avions précisé visite en français - la vitesse des visites (très peu de temps laissé pour visiter la mosquée par ex), donc impossible de profiter de l'ambiance des lieux - arrêt dans une boutique pour faire du shopping, attrape touriste et chinoiseries au max... Autant garder ce temps pour visiter - le repas.... Summum de la déception : arrêt dans un hôtel pour manger un buffet... Avec les boissons…”
Explore Dougga, Ain Tounga, and Testour Mosque on a private Tunisian day tour with historic ruins, rural views, and door-to-door pickup.
