Wonderful Tour in Tunis - I did this tour on Monday 26 May with the lovely Fahmi. I was travelling with my husband and 2 friends ( another couple ) and we had the most wonderful day! Fahmi had a lovely friendly disposition and was very informative sharing so much history & interesting details of what we were seeing. The ancient ruins at Carthage & the stunning Sidi Bou Said ( “the Santorini of Tunis”) were highlights for me. Fahmi made the day very special as he showed us many places & talked about Tunis being a place where “East meets West” I would highly recommend Fahmi & this tour company as they did a wonderful job. He also took photos of us in these beautiful locations which was very sweet of him. Cheers from Melbourne, Australia

Great tour to see a little bit of everything in Tunis - My friend and I took a tour of Carthage, Sidi Bou Saïd and La Medina, with lunch, with our guide Mr Beligh. The driver picked us up on time from our hotel. It's a great tour to cover the main tourist spots just within a day. Our tour guide was kind to do all the explanations in the shade under the trees, because in May it already gets very hot (for the Europeans at least). The baths of Antoninus are especially spectacular. The views from Sidi Bou Said are amazing. Lunch included an entree (brik and/or salad), main dish with a fish, an ice cream and water. Make sure to carry more water with you during the sightseeing, it gets hot pretty fast. We also saw the main mosque in Medina, for women they provide scarfs to cover yourself at the entrance.

Wonderful Day in Tunis! - We had a wonderful tour with Maher as our guide for the day. They were very responsive with communication before the day of the tour setting up all the logistics to make it very easy for us when we arrived coming to pick us up at the port in La Goulette. Maher is very knowledgeable about the history of the area and made our day of exploring Tunis very educational and enjoyable. Very highly recommended!!

A rich and entertaining tour in Carthage and Tunis - Taking this private tour was the perfect choice. After being picked up at our accomodation, we visited several impressive Carthagean sites, including Byrsa hill and the Antonine baths, Sidi Bou Saïd and the Medina of Tunis. Since the sites are very dispersed, the car helped a lot to cover this much in only a day. However, the tour was much much more than simply being driven around: we got an enthusiastic, friendly and really knowledgeable guide in professor Beligh Brahmi. Since he knew we were interested in the historical details of the monuments and sights, he went into great detail. Personally, we felt that it really elevated our exploration of the places, especially Carthage, where he also told us about his own research and insights. All in all, we can wholeheartedly recommend the private tour, and we would like to thank everyone involved! We look forward to coming back and exploring other cities.

Perfect excursion for those who know little or nothing about Tunis and the area. - This is great experience if you want to learn and see so much of the culture and history of Tunis, Carthage and Tunisia. Our guide Fahmi was super knowledgeable and passionate about the rich and diverse history of the area. We couldn't have asked from anymore from him as a guide. Coming to Tunis we knew very little about the city and culture. Fahmi really educated us while also making it fun and allowing us to take lots of pictures of the beautiful Sidi Bou Said and navigating the hustle and bustle of Medina. I would certainly recommend this excursion of you were like us not knowing how to experience the culture and sights. Thank you Fahmi and also our driver Bassem.

Took this your with guide... - Took this your with guide Beligh. Very interesting, learned a lot about Tunisia and local culture. Local almond pastries were amazing! Keep in mind fair amount of walking especially in the Medina which can be somewhat tiring and claustrophobic.
