2.Group Guided Bike Tour of Carthage Archeological Site in Tunisia

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 57 reviews · from $56

Ride between Carthage’s major ruins on a green bicycle or e-bike with a guide such as Jiji or Yasi. In about three hours, visit the Tophet, Punic Ports, Antoninus Baths, Roman Theatre, and possibly Byrsa Hill. Expect easy cycling with one notable hill.

“Easy paced ride to the sites, even the hill to the top wasn’t that hard. Unfortunately, didn’t get to see all the sites during the tour so asked for the admission tickets so we could walk to see them after the tour. So could have made this maybe a 4hr tour rather than 3hr.”
