A nice complete activity, perfect for discovering several cities in a short time! The amphitheater in El Jem is majestic, a real must-see. My guide and my driver were very friendly and it was reassuring to travel with them (as a woman who travels alone!) Thank you!

I highly recommend this tour. Our guide Mohammed was very knowledgable, kind and spoke good English. Also the driver was very kind and helpful. The places with visited were very interesting and of much importance in Tunisian history - must see, if you travel here for the first time.

Hichem did an extraordinary job giving me information to visit all the tourist sites of interest. He speaks perfect Spanish and gave me additional information about Tunisia that I found very interesting. The driver was very attentive and overall I am very happy with this tour. I definitely recommend it and consider going back to Tunis
