5.00Our trip felt like 3 friends out for a day, Ala took all our needs into account. We enjoyed it so much we booked to go to Cathage and Sidi Bou Said only if he could take us. El Jem tips, if you want to go up to top tier, wear sensible shoes. The museum is amazing, take your time to understand the mythology inside the mosaic. Highly recommended.

5.00The Collosseum and Museum at El Jem was exceptional. We had a private guide he was very informative, knowledgeable and polite. He was a careful driver and made us feel at ease. The Collessum was very well preserved and offered a great insight into the past. Whilst the Museum contained the finest mosaics we have ever seen. A wonderful trip.
Brilliant
