1.VIP Tour: Tunis Medina/Bardo, Sidi Bou Said, Carthage |PICKUP ALL

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 512 reviews · 6 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $30Our pick

Travel from Sousse in a private, air-conditioned vehicle to Sidi Bou Said, Carthage, and either the Medina of Tunis or Bardo Museum. Your multilingual driver host, including guides such as Otman, Ahmed, Hsin, and Amine, provides local tips while you explore at your own pace.

“The driver was very pleasant and friendly. The tour is very flexible, time wise, but I would have liked a little more guidance on what is a good amount of time to spend in each area. It's difficult to say how long you want to spend somewhere you've never been before. Also some lunch options would be helpful rather than being asked where do you want to eat lunch.”

“We were fortunate to visit Kairouan and El Jem with an incredible driver named Mohammed Amine. He was very accommodating during the tour and guided us during the tour. He provided plenty of time during the stop at El Jem and provided good conversation during the driving. We had an unusual request and went out of his way to accommodate us. The tour to historic Kairouan and El Jem went smoothly because of the driver’s efforts and we were able to see everything we wanted to see. Mohammed Amine went above and beyond and made sure we saw some of the best that Tunisia has to offer.”

“The tour was great, our guide Rafik was excellent and extremely knowledgeable. We were given a good amount of background and history which was really interesting. The food was some of the best I have eaten, and as Rafik knew a lot of the shop owners etc they gave us some interesting additional history about some of the traditions. O Would definitely recommend, only ranking 4 instead of 5 stars as we were picked up around 25 minutes later than expected and werent able to get hold of them, after that everything ran smoothly.”
