We had fun - This was a great tour. They adjusted the itinerary such that we did not hit major crowds at the Bardo and the Baths in Carthage. However, it's impossible to avoid crowds in the very touristy areas, e.g. the Medina, especially if a cruise ship is in town

Historical, Informative and fun! - The tour of all 4 sites was amazing and the guide was very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend if you are visiting Tunisia to make sure you go on these tours either with family, loved ones or friends.

Ok tour but not detailed enough - Did this tour with a small group on a Sunday as private tours are expensive . Here is my take : The good: guide was okay with detailed though somewhat blinkered view of Tunis history . Granted she has creative license to talk up Tunisian culture . Though she tends to over talk at Bardo, Carthage , Medina Food: Food at the Sidi Boussard was great - fresh and delicious Price: US$85 was quite worthwhile Program- get to see 4 sites in Tunis Not so good: Missed some spots - I can to see Carthage but guide just visited the old port which is essentially taken over by Rich houses and visited the. Bath of Antonius . Never get to visit Carthage city itself with the streets and classism - guess that involves another entrance fee that the guide didn’t wish to pay . Was pretty disappointed about that as I can to Tunisia to learn more about Carthage . Felt shortchanged for that part Medina not open on Sunday - guide said it will be crowded but she really knew that it would be empty as per previous reviews by other guests who used this tour . I find that a little dishonest so I was not impressed by the excuse she gave - Ramadan and Sunday us rest day when she knew .

Great places, poor tour - Locations were excellent and great to see Tunisa in a day, our driver was very nice and polite. This was one of 5 private van tours we booked of our cruise and this was by far the poorest experiences we had and was the most expensive which is disappointing. We had to walk more than 20 mins to get picked up from the cruise ship, we saw plenty of other private tours get picked up much closer outside of the gate of terminal and dropped closer, we got dropped of on the side of road near train tracks. The Van AC did not work properly and the van was old and worn inside. We were also taken into a gift store with no prices and the tour guide became quite pushy in there and was not impressed when we left, I assume she was getting kick backs from there and other places she wanted us to spend money. Tour guide did not listen at all and continued to do her own thing. Would not book again with this company.
