Full Day Dougga & Bulla Regia Via Testour Private tour with Lunch
Overview

Mobile ticket
Dougga is the pinnacle of the Roman presence in Tunisia and looks out majestically over the hills. What perhaps makes it so aesthetically pleasing is its geography – perched on high, it is a picture of verdancy and her stone columns stand proudly against the green countryside. It occupies an unusual position for a Roman town because its origins date back well before the Romans, in fact, it was a Numidian stronghold and enjoyed great prosperity through Masinissa, its ruler.
Bulla Regia is a remarkable Roman city, in northwestern Tunisia, near the modern city of Jendouba. It is celebrated for its semi-subterranean housing, a feature that most likely was a response to the need for protection against excessive heat in summer and the cold in winter. The experience of exploring complete, superbly preserved villas is quite incredible; Bulla Regia remains a unique Roman city in having two-storey dwellings with one floor underground.

A Fantastic Tour!

5.00Kamel was a fantastic guide! The four of us enjoyed his extensive knowledge and hus authentic professional approach very much. We learned so much about the history of the area and ruins and are so grateful for this opportunity to explore this area with a local gude. Thanks Kamel! Our only struggles with the trip was in communicating with operator. We had tried to contact them numerous times to confirm our pickup up and they never messaged us back. This left us feeling unsupported and unsure of what was happening, but luckily, our experience and guide made up for that! Thanks Kamel!

5.00The team communicated very well. Since I was there during Ramadan, many factors were involved that I was not aware of. Through good communications, we were able to get an early start, and the entire day went very smoothly and perfect. Lunch was enjoyable and I would recommend this tour.
A wonderful day with impressive Roman sites

5.00Excellent guide Anis and driver Arbie (who even lent my friend his coat given how cold it was with the wind in Dugga). Received a lot of great information at both Bulla Regia and Dougga, which are both amazing in their own way. Bella Rugía allowed you to see two story houses and had a very large baths. Dougga was very extensive and had many interesting places. Lunch at local restaurant was very tasty. Highly recommend the tour if you like Roman historical sites.

Fabulous visit to Testour, Dougga, and Bulla Regia

5.00We left Tunis at 7:00AM and headed to Testour. The mosque has a very interesting clock. The vendors specialize in goat cheese, and pomegranates. Them on to Dougga, this I can only describe as spectacular, I won’t spoil it for you if you are going. After we went to Bulla Regia, we had lunch there which was fine. The site is also very interesting and well worth a visit. Our driver and guide were excellent.

5.00Larbi and Viator ensured that I had an outstanding trip that I won’t forget. Firstly, my booking was fulfilled at very short (< 12 hours) notice, without any trouble. Larbi arrived on time, drove tirelessly and safely, and was an excellent companion. I learned all about Tunisian culture, wildlife and geography on our drive between sites, and Larbi went above and beyond to pause to allow me to take photos. I give him my highest recommendation.

5.00This was a spectacular tour. Ahmed is a wealth of knowledge. He showed us everything worth knowing of the ruins. The only comment I have is that it is hard to get in touch with them prior to the tour if you have any questions or need any modifications. Other than that it was perfect! And the food delicious.

2.00The excursion was too expensive for what was done and entrance fees to the archaeological sites were not included. Also, the visit was done alone in a car with a driver who spoke little English, so it was not very cheerful. I think when I was the only one for the activity, it could have been rescheduled to another day with more people.
An amazing experience in the most beautiful place in Tunisia.

5.00The trip has been wonderful. Jabran's attention to every detail has been exquisite, he is a great guide. He showed us house detail of Dougga and Bulla Regia, concerned about our well-being and transmitting his knowledge about the excursion, which are many and very varied. Also very good driver Ishmar, very attentive. Dougga is arguably one of the most beautiful places in Tunisia, and this tour, of course, is a sure bet.
