A perfect seamless day - The tour guide/driver arrived promptly at my hotel. He was considerate and courteous. All aspects of the day trip were well coordinated, fascinating to learn about and the information helped me appreciate Tunisian’s unique history. The guide at Ichkeul was extremely kind and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour.

Northern Tunisia - We had a wonderful day touring with Ghassen. We had a free day in Tunisia before joining our main tour. He took us to places north of Tunisia that we would not have had time to see otherwise. My favorite part was strolling through the old medina in Bizerte.

Wondering tour of north Tunisia - Spectacular tour! I cannot recommend Ghassen and this tour enough. This was our first day in Tunisia and it was a perfect introductory mixture of history, scenery, and culture.

Experience Africa's northernmost point - Plan ahead if you wish to enter the Ichkeul National Park. Due to new regulations, we were not allowed to enter the main areas/lakeside of the park, but we managed to visit the opposite side of the Jebel Ichkeul (Mt. Ichkeul). The real favorites of this trip are the visit to the lovely town of Bizerte, and to Cap Engela - the northernmost point of the African continent. Thanks to Mr. Ghassen Nasri for the three lovely days in Tunisia!

Great trip… but check number of travellers - Really good selection of sites combining archeology, medina/harbour, northernmost point of Africa and (my personal highlight!) Ichkeul National Park. Knowledgable and friendly guide, with excellent English. Good and safe driver. Fab day! Reason for 4 stars not 5 - this was booked as a private tour and paid for as such (1 person being double the cost of 2, which makes sense as the main expenses are the guide, car/driver, and fuel). However, when I arrived there was another person booked on the trip. She ultimately opted to pull out due to an issue with her accommodation but the guide said they often combine “private” bookings. I’d have no issue with a small group tour but that was not what I booked - I wanted to have time to take photographs and reduce time spent at Bizerte to add extra time at Ichkeul without going over the advertised total tour length - and I paid to do the tour privately to accommodate that. Worth future customers checking “private” actually means “private” not “private with random other people you’ve never met”.

Meh average tour. Overpriced. - I thought this tour was overpriced and not advertised correctly. The photos show the northern most point of Africa as part of the tour but in order to do this I was told I had to miss something else. We drove into the national park and did nothing there. On top of this the guide was late. Overall I enjoyed seeing bizerte but it really wasn’t worth the money.
