Looking forward to creating wonderful memories with you on these in-depth Tunisia cultural tours. Kairouan was the capital of Tunisia for five centuries and was a place of outstanding learning, as well as a center of the diffusion of Arabo-Muslim civilization. Kairouan bears a unique witness to the first centuries of Islamic settlement in Tunisia, with a thriving civilization and a new style of architectural and urban development that gives Tunisia a cultural aspect different from any other Mediterranean destination. The inscribed site of Al Qayrawan is a serial property that encompasses the medina (Old City) and its surrounding neighborhoods, the water reservoirs of the Aghlabid Dynasty, and the Gates, markets, schools, and Sufi Zawiyas. The medina (54 ha) and its suburbs (20 ha) form an urban ensemble that presents all the components of a cultural amalgamation typical of a North African Arab-Turkish town. Taking a culturally guided tour of Kairouan is like stepping into an ancient, sophisticated world of arts and crafts, where a zest for life prevails. <p>The medina comprises juxtaposed dwellings divided into quarters separated by medieval blind alleys and narrow, winding streets. As in most North African cultural cities, a fortifying wall serves to protect the city from intruders. </p> Kairouan ramparts extend over more than three kilometers. The medina contains some remarkable monuments, including the Great Mosque, an architectural masterpiece that served as a model for several other Maghreban spiritual and cultural centers. The Mosque of the Three Doors represents the most ancient existing sculpted facade of Muslim art. The Basins of the Aghlabids, an open-air reservoir formed by two communicating cisterns that date back to the 9th century, constitute one of the most beautiful hydraulic ensembles conceived to provide water to the town. Tunisia tours to remember forever. Sign up for this Tunisia trip, and you will be enchanted. </p>

DAY TO DAY ITINERARY

Day 1: Arrival to Tunis

Welcome to Tunisia tours and discoveries. Upon your arrival at Tunis Airport, you will be met by your tour leader, who will transfer you to your hotel in Tunis. After lunch, your local guide will take you on a cultural and historic tour exploring the marvels of Tunis and Carthage. A former palace, the Bardo Museum, accommodates the finest repository of Roman mosaics in the world. The afternoon will be devoted to visiting the principal cultural and historic sites of Carthage, the capital of the Punic (or Carthaginian) world, and later the second city in the western Roman Empire after Rome. We have the best-informed Tunisian guides who not only enlighten your Tunisia cultural encounter with history but also with the cultural layers of this ancient destination, walking with you everywhere and answering your questions with accuracy about all that is culturally interesting to you.

Day 2: Tunis walking tour

On our second day of our Tunisia trip, you will enjoy a day exploring the marvels of Tunis's historic and cultural discovery with your local guide. Tunis Medina is the quintessential model of a typical Islamic city, vibrant with a maze of narrow alleys crammed with ancient buildings, covered markets that shield it from the scorching sun, public fountains, Koranic schools, arches, and beautiful gates. The Great Mosque of 9th-century origin is one of North Africa’s most significant Islamic buildings. The rest of the day is free for wandering the Medina or relaxing at the hotel. In the evening, a private visit to the Ennejma Ezzahra (Splendid Star), built by master artisans in the 1900s as a home for the Baron Rodolphe d’Erlanger, in homage to his passion for the Middle East. It is now a museum and the Centre for Arab and Mediterranean Music. Overnight Tunis.

Day 3: Udna -Thuburbo - Zaghouane - Kairouan

After breakfast, we will travel overland to Kairouan, visiting the ancient sites of Carthage, Rome, and Islam, highlighting their historic importance. Visit the Roman site of Athina, where you can see several high-quality mosaics in situ. The amphitheater features underground vaulted cells that still resonate with the sounds of ancient civilizations. Thuburbo Majus is a typical Roman city model, with a colonnaded forum, fine temples, houses, and baths. Explore the old irrigation system unique to this area, a 51 km long aqueduct joining Carthage to Zaghouane, which still stands in glory. This aqueduct is mesmerizing with its water temple at the natural springs of Zaghouane ostentatiously set over the hill to celebrate the importance that all civilizations of the past have given to water, especially Muslims who originate from the desert. Dinner and Overnight are in Kairouan.

Day 4: Kairouan Cultural and Historic Tour

After breakfast, you will meet your Tunisian local guide, who will lead you to explore the marvels of the first Islamic city in North Africa. The morning is spent in Kairouan, with visits to the Medina and the Great Mosque (8th-9th century), as well as other examples of local traditional architecture. The immense colosseum at El Djem could hold 30,000 and is a remarkable sight, towering over its modern surroundings. The small museum nearby contains some exquisite mosaics. On your final night in Kairouan, you are invited to a farewell dinner at a traditional restaurant with live music, marking the culmination of your cultural discovery tour of Tunisia.
