5.00Perfect for 4 seniors with minimal mobility issues. Our guide was so personable. He was extremely flexible and helpful in every way.
Nice German speaking excursion. Pick-up should be possible directly at the port.

4.00Super nice tour guide. Wouldn't have expected a private tour for two. Was a nice German speaking trip. Super fast responses when asked. Very good customer service. Unfortunately, pick-up took place outside the port. Was a bit skeptical at first and worried about this, since it is a country outside the EU and the pick-up at the port was actually booked. The local police reassured me about this due to your appearance and communication from the tour guides.
An enlightening look at Tunis

5.00Our driver and guide, Chiki, delivered an enjoyable and insightful experience in Tunis. Chiki was well informed, a very pleasant conversationalist and shared a great deal of historical background and cultural aspects of Tunisia with us. He made this experience enlightening and entertaining as we walked the basalt thoroughfares of the M’dina and the winding narrow cobblestone streets of Sidi Bou Said. For an excellent introduction to North Africa, join this tour.

1.00We canceled this tour because of the heat wave and the dress code. We were on a cruise and one of the gentlemen on the trip passed out due to the heat . The tour was not refundable so we lost the entire cost . I do no suggest this

5.00I would highly recommend this tour. Our guide Faouzi was excellent. He spoke perfect English and was easy to understand. He was very knowledgeable on history and explained about life in Tunis. He was very kind and we absolutely loved our day with him. The pick up point was well explained and easy to find and Faouzi was there ready for us. Thank you Faouzi for a wonderful experience.
