About this activity

This is not your typical sightseeing tour. It’s a genuine, immersive street food experience led by a passionate local guide who knows every hidden corner of the Medina. While most tours scratch the surface, we take you deep into the heart of Tunisian food culture, introducing you to authentic flavors that locals have cherished for generations.

From the first bite of crispy brick to the last sip of traditional Tunisian tea at one of Tunis’ most iconic rooftop cafés, every moment of this tour is carefully crafted to give you a true taste of the city. You won’t find generic restaurant stops here, just real, honest street food from the spots that matter most to the people of Tunis.

Small groups, big flavors, and stories behind every dish. This is the most delicious way to discover Tunis.
