Interesting - Really enjoyed the tour, the guide was very nice, friendly and informative. Carthage and SIDI BOU are a must, both very interesting places. We were also taken to a mosaic museum which was a pleasant surprise. The only things to spoil the trip was customers who don’t arrive on time and have everyone else waiting and the awful lunch stop, the food was terrible, it would have been better to have lunch in SIDI BOU which we wouldn’t have minded paying that bit extra for the privilege!
