Perfect half day tour - Thank you, your guide Fawzi and driver Adam! Fawzi was extremely informative on our half day tour of Carthage / Sidi Bou Said, I think he could’ve spoken to us all day about the history of his country. His English was excellent and was very careful and attentive with my wife and her needs (she is five months pregnant). He also gave us a lot of tips and recommendations for things to see and look for in the Medina which we explored without a tour guide. Also, the car was perfect and driver always ready for us. Highly recommend this tour experience for a quick, informative and flexible tour of this beautiful city and ruins.

Excellent excursion! - Excellent excursion. Well-informed guide who tailored the itinerary to traffic and our own wishes. Keep in mind that if you are coming on a cruise ship most independent guides are not allowed into the closed port area, so you will need to walk a short distance to the gas station right outside the port.

Excellent tour with driver and guide in our own vehicle - We had our own private vehicle, with a driver and a very knowledgeable guide who did an excellent job in providing lots of information during the day. He took us on a tour around Sidi Bou Said taking photos for us and pointing out the sights and view points. We visited several sights of Carthage and the guide personally took us around each one and ensured we had an enjoyable and interesting day.

Definitely a must - A series of archaeological sites along the railway leading to Sidi Bou Said. Luckily many of the sites are located near each other. Admission allows visits to several sites at once. Two days are enough to visit most of the major sites.

Exactly what I dreamed of for Carthage - Tour was thorough and left the perfect amount of time to leisurely stroll through and look at ruins of Carthage. There was no sense of urgency - a rarity for a tour that doesn’t take a full day. Schedule was flexible enough that we didn’t spend much time in Sidi Bou Said itself(which we had seen a lot of already) and this had more time for Carthage. Tour guide was knowledgeable, not just about the tour material but the area as well.

Do not miss this visit - A beautiful place, my son loved walking through the middle of the ruins... We only stayed there for about an hour and a half. The view is magnificent....I didn't understand the presence of a barrier on the entrance alley. But later the guide told me that there is the presidential palace right next to it and it is forbidden to take photos... To do....

Great Tour, Great Hosts - Our tour guide, Chekib, and the rest of the team were fantastic - responsive, flexible, and thoughtful about making our experience as easy and enjoyable as possible. I particularly appreciated their willingness to adjust our pickup locations and timing, and adapt the itinerary for our schedule, energy, and interests. The substance of the tour, commentary, and local knowledge displayed were also excellent; I couldn't imagine a better way for a new visitor to Tunis to see these sights!

Historical Stories & Culture - Our guide Mr. Anis Melki was an exceptional book of history and knowledge. He was informative and brought the sites to life through intricate details the ruins have left behind. The bath house, Carthage port, and theater bring you back in time to where it all began.

A great tour - Chakib the Guide for the day was splendid. He was on the dot when he came to pick me up. He also kept me informed by what’s app a day in advance about the day tour and what we get to do. He was also very informative and tried to make it interesting. Not one question went unanswered and he was always cheerful. He imme see us in the many millennia’s history of Carthage and also how the village of Sidi came to be. The car he brought and the drivers were great too. He was never rushed and was flexible on the time spent on each site. I would gladly recommend this tour
