Hergla Visit and Sousse Medina Heritage Tour

About this activity

Haggling skills at the ready for the souks and shops in these two charming seaside towns. Contrast the quiet village streets of Hergla with the vibrant medina of Sousse. Classic Tunisian crafts you'll see include colourful Kairouan rugs, embroidered textiles, copper lamps, leather slippers and olive wood pieces.

We'll begin with a stroll around the whitewashed village of Hergla, sitting pretty on top of the coastal cliffs. It's a charming place where the blue of the windows and doors echoes the sea below. Wander the lanes to see the old mosque and watch the basket weavers at work. Maybe you'll catch the fishing boats coming back to harbour with their catch.

Oozing old-world Tunisian character, Sousse medina's web of lanes are bursting with activity. As well as the main market at Bab Jadid, don't miss Bab il Gharbi, a great area for shopping, watching local craftsmen, trying street food, or stopping at a café.
