What to expect

Embark on a cultural half-day guided tour to two of Tunisia's most emblematic locations. The journey begins with an exploration of the ancient ruins of Carthage, a city that once held significant power in the Mediterranean. Delve into key archaeological sites such as the Antonine Baths, Punic ports, and Roman villas, gaining insight into the city's rich history and its influence on North African civilisation.

The tour then transitions to the charming cliffside village of Sidi Bou Said, offering a serene contrast to the ruins. Characterised by its distinctive blue-and-white architecture, cobbled streets, and sweeping sea views, it provides ample opportunities for leisurely strolls, photography, or even a pause for mint tea at a local café.

This excursion is particularly suited for culture enthusiasts and families. It offers hotel pickup and drop-off from Hammamet or Sousse, guided visits, and eschews commercial stops in favour of an authentic exploration of Tunisia’s heritage. It's an ideal choice for travellers seeking to combine historical discovery with scenic beauty in one unforgettable morning.
