Itinerary

  1. The National Bardo Museum

    2 hours Admission included

    The Bardo Museum houses one of the world’s most impressive collections of Roman mosaics, showcasing countless pieces unearthed from excavations conducted across Tunisia since the 19th century. Immerse yourself in the rich history and craftsmanship of these magnificent works as your expert guide provides captivating insights into their origins and significance.

  2. Site Archeologique de Carthage

    1 h 30 min Admission included

    Founded by the Phoenicians, Carthage is a vast archaeological site perched on a hill overlooking the Gulf of Tunis and the surrounding plains. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1979, Carthage invites you to explore its key landmarks, including the majestic Antonine Baths, the ancient Punic Ports, and the sacred Tophet. As you visit these historical treasures, you’ll delve into the fascinating past of this once-powerful civilization and uncover the secrets of its enduring legacy.

  3. Saint Louis Cathedral

    15 min Admission included

    Perched on the historic Byrsa Hill, the Acropolium—also known as Saint Louis Cathedral—is one of Carthage’s most emblematic landmarks. Built in the 19th century on the remains of an ancient temple dedicated to Eshmun, the Punic god of healing, the site reflects the rich layers of history that shaped Carthage: Punic, Roman, and later Christian.

    The cathedral was dedicated to King Louis IX of France, who died during the Eighth Crusade near Tunis, and its presence symbolizes the intersection of cultures and faiths that have left their mark on the city.

    While the interior is currently closed to visitors, the monument remains a must-see from the outside, offering impressive architecture and sweeping views over Carthage and the Mediterranean.

  4. Sidi Bou Said

    1 h 30 min

    End your journey with a visit to the charming village of Sidi Bou Said, renowned for its iconic white-and-blue houses, cozy cafes, and breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. Located just 20 kilometers northeast of Tunis, this picturesque town sits atop a cliff, offering stunning panoramas of Carthage and the Gulf of Tunis. It's the perfect place to unwind and soak in the beauty of Tunisia’s coastal charm.
