Wonderful half day in Tunisia - We really enjoyed our tour of Tunisia. We had a driver and a guide and both were very informative and accommodating. There was a minor delay to start of our tour because we were waiting for them inside the cruise port while they were waiting for us outside. They sent us a message the day before on the meeting place, but since we have no WiFi on board nor in Africa we did not pick it up. They phoned us when they didn't see us so we met up a few minutes late. They drove us to the city where the driver dropped us off with the guide. Our guide (Hichem?) was very knowledgeable. He had travelled a lot himself and we couldn't believe it when we found out he was fluent in Japanese! We are Chinese and can read some Japanese characters and can tell his Japanese calligraphy is excellent. He also gave us a quick lesson on Arabic calligraphy. At end of tour, driver picked us up and drove us back to the port. Since they are not permitted to go inside the port, perhaps this should be noted a few days earlier for the travellers, as some travellers may not have access to WiFi. But overall, we were very glad we had this tour and with the driver and tour guide.

Very nice! - Wonderful tour inside Tunis Medina, we have visited both the half where Tunisian go to buy everyday goods and the more turistic one. They were both very interesting thanks to our guide (I’m sorry I forgot his name, but he speaks Italian and was going to get married in few weeks after our tour on 15 June). He showed us many hidden spots that were impossibile to be found by ourselves! I really suggest to take this tour!

Half Day Tunis Tour - The guide and driver were both very professional. There was a mixup in communication at the commencement of the tour which was not their doing. The guide displayed great knowledge of his subject and as a result enlightened all the group with his knowledge of his country’s history. Would highly recommend the tour.

A Lots of Walking Tour of the Medinas, Local Sites and Markets - We were a group of four adults, two have difficulties walking fast and for long periods of time. The tour advertises an "air conditioned vehicle", so I assumed it was a combination, walking, driving tour. In September it is over 100 degrees and extremely humid in Tunis. Had I known it was 4 plus hours of walking I may not have booked. We enjoyed navigating the medinas, visiting some of the off beat neighborhoods, the seafood and open markets etc., but our guide, although he was very knowledgeable and personable, walked at an extremely fast pace, at times far ahead of our group, even though I implored him more than once to slow down.

Dreadful experience Tunisis - Dreadful experience with Compass Travel. Guide did not/ would not give us collection point. We spent 80 minutes trying to locate him. When we finally found him he was extremely rude and arrogant and not helpful or friendly. We abandoned our tour rather than spend any time with a guide with such a shocking attitude. We will never know Tunisia… no time left to find a tour or helpful guide!

Nightmare - My worst tour ever in my life . Not worth One dollar. Rude guide. Spends more time speaking on phone than us. Terrible pick up. Avoid at all costs. I informed the local tour provider. Apparently guide fired. I am a travel agent from Canada.
