Carthage was the capital of ancient Rome's greatest rival and the site of a titanic clash of civilisations. Today, its ruins bear testament to Rome's ultimate victory, as you'll discover during this tour, which also takes in Sidi Bou Said and a stop by the Bardo Museum. Mariam, one of our expert local guides, says "a good place to get your bearings in ancient Carthage is Byrsa Hill. It's a bit of a climb but the view over the site, the city and the bay are absolutely worth it."You'll start the morning with a visit to Bardo Museum, home to...

Positif : circuit très intéressant culturellement. Négatif : - guide : ne s'exprime pratiquement qu'en anglais et en allemand. Pendant qu'eux avaient des explications détaillées, nous avions en français qu'un simple résumé. Très insistant pour les pourboires. "N'oubliez pas de donner un pourboire lorsque vous descendrez du car" - repas : restaurant au milieu de la zone du port industriel. Aucun charme sans parler de la bouffe dégueulasse. J'entamerai une réclamation dès que ça sera possible.

Booking with the TUI rep was easy, but the trip didn’t match what was sold. We spent too long on unplanned stops (amphitheatre, cathedral, Roman baths, museum) and had only 40 mins at Carthage, the main highlight. Lunch was poor quality at a cheap restaurant, with drinks not included (even water). Overall, badly structured and not worth the price — more time should have been given to Carthage, with a better dining option.

Le temps passé à Sidi Bou Said est un peu court pour pouvoir visiter la ville à son aise. La visite du musée Bardo en fin de journée est difficile à suivre après une journée très chaude car fatigué importante. Peut être y consacrer moins de temps ?? Guide au top.

The behaviour and language of the tpur guide was unacceptable. Used the "N" word and then fell asleep on the journey back. No free time in the museum.

The tour guide was excellent - his knowledge & language skills. We enjoyed looking at extra sites around Carthage whilst still on the bus. The trip to Sidi BouSaid was less interesting for us and too much of a busy, touristy place.

I had been on this trip previously but this year it had included a visit to the Bardo museum in Tunis, and I had wanted to visit this for many years and it did not disappoint. I did not manage to see all the exhibits so would have preferred a little more time there. As I had been to Byrsa hill and The Roman Baths before it would have been good to see other areas of Carthage. Sidi Bou Said is absolutely stunning no matter how many times I have seen it, all in all it is a really good day out.

On ne nous dit pas que venant de Sousse vous aurez 1 h pour aller chercher les autre vacanciers + 2 h de trajet aller + la même chose retour . Pas assez de temps sur sidi bou Said ( pour boire un café ou se faire du shopping..). Repas pas du tout tunisien ( poulet -pâtes grecques - légumes ) . 1 h pour le musée où on pourrait rester 1/2 h . Dans l’ensemble très déçu de nous avoir vendu du rêve. Demande de compensation de la compagnie . Guide parle français et explique tout

La représentante Tui de l'hôtel nous avait annoncés 1h de route jusque Carthage. En réalité le trajet était de plus de 2h. Je ne trouve pas ça très correct. Le musée à Tunis était beau et intéressant. Ce n'était pas barbant. J'ai été un peu déçue par Carthage. Sidi Bousaid est une très belle petite ville. Par contre on disposait de peu de temps pour se promener là-bas.

We were first pick up at 6.30 and spent a total of 3 hours on the bus then We were taken to a lake, surrounded by trash for 10 mins, then to Carthage which was good but limited time here. Then Sidi Bou Said. Which was pretty. Lunch was ok. Then to Museum which we were rushed through but it was very interesting and beautiful. Then last of bus nearly. Back at 6, 11 and 1/2 hours of which 7 was on a bus! So not worth the money. The bus driver and Mohammad the interpreter were brilliant.

Très beaux endroits à découvrir. Mais 20 minutes libres sur Carthage et 1h sur Sidi Bou Said c'est un peu peu ! Pas vraiment le temps d´´´´ explorer les lieux, faire des photos, etc. Sinon les explications du guide sont très bien et complètes. Merci

This trip was far too long with too much driving to,from and In between. The coach air conditioning was pointless and was constantly warm. The lunch provided was in a 3 star hotel which was pretty shabby and the food was cold and almost straight after I had a bad stomach when arriving at the museum. Due to this me and the wife got a taxi back to the hotel as we did not feel comfortable having to sit on the coach again where it was far too warm and my stomach was off. The taxi cost over £60.

We booked this tour as we expected to see some Roman ruins and some Tunisian culture. The tour delivered that but we felt a little disappointed with what there was to see at the ruins at Carthage. The guide was very knowledgable and delivered a lot of information, perhaps he tried to give a little too much as he seemed a bit rushed. Sidi Bou Said was very very busy due to the cruise ships which spoilt the experience.

It was a nice day trip. Parts were repeating our trip yo el jim. The guide gave a lot more information on the coach so felt like we had more free time which was a positive. The coach was extremely comfortable too.

Advertised as Carthage Sidi, did not mention you were going to a museum in Tunis plus over 2 hour coach trip both days. We visited Carthage after early lunch and walked around in the hottest part of the day, with little shade. Side Bousaid was not quiet as advertised, big market, loads of people, very disappointed

On a l'impression de devoir courir toute la journée, les temps libres sont beaucoup trop court. Mohammed fait son travail, mais on a l'impression que les francophones passent après,... Repas de midi soi-disant dans le meilleur restaurant, une cantine. Décevant! Les temps de transports sont doublés par rapport à ce que l'hôtesse TUI nous a vendu.

The guide was particularly helpful and knowledgeable. The lunch at the restaurant in La Goulette was very disappointing, particularly when compared with lunch at the hotel Dar Ammar on the tour to Kairouan and El Jem.
