Itinerary

Begin the day by being picked up from your Tunis hotel. Travel to Carthage in a cozy, air-conditioned vehicle, seeing some of Tunisia’s most exquisite homes along the route. Explore the city with your guide, seeing old sites and enjoying panoramic views of the nearby coastline. Carthage was historically devastated by the Romans in 146 BC, but studies have discovered five-story mansions, sewage facilities, and the ruins of city walls that originally spanned across Byrsa Hill for 21 miles (34 km).

Proceed to Sidi Bou Said, a blue-and-white, attractive hamlet overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, after viewing the UNESCO-listed ancient city. After stopping for lunch at a local restaurant, continue to Tunis to see the Bardo National Museum, which has Roman mosaics, early Islamic pottery, and rare Phoenician antiquities. Make your last visit of the day at Tunis’s medina, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Your guide will lead you through the small alleyways to the Zitouna Mosque, a classic cap-makers market, and Tunis’s vibrant perfume market. This trip closes with a drop-off at your accommodation in Tunis.
