We added a couple of optional activities beyond Medina of Tunis and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Everything was handled for us — flights, hotel, transfers, and tours to Sidi Bou Said day visit and Dougga Roman ruins day trip. Great communication from the consultant before departure too.

Booked this as a family of 4 trip and it was well paced. Medina of Tunis in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Our trip to Tunis was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Sidi Bou Said day visit was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

Tunis is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Sidi Bou Said day visit. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.
