Clarification !

5.00Dear travellers, I would like to clarify a recent negative review posted on my profile. The review was written by another tour guide, Marwen Douiri, who operates desert tours. I had referred a group of Italian clients to him, and we initially agreed on all details, including the program and pricing. However, after the agreement, he requested additional payment. When we declined this change, he chose to leave a negative review on my TripAdvisor profile. This situation does not reflect the quality of my services or the experience I strive to provide to my guests. I always aim for transparency, professionalism, and clear communication. Thank you for your understanding, and I remain at your disposal for any questions. Kind regards, Ahmed

Amazing tour of old Carthage.

5.00Ahmed picked us up at our hotel in a van with a driver and we set off on our journey. He took us all over ancient Carthage with stops at the Byrsa, aqueducts, Roman baths and the port of old Carthage. As a Roman history buff, I couldn’t have been more intrigued with each place and Ahmed had so much information to add the things that I already knew. As someone who knows quite a bit about the area from research and teachings, seeing it in person was an absolute highlight and talking with Ahmed throughout, he was able to add additional information at me that wasn’t aware of. Super Knowledgeable, very nice, and funny as well. Highly recommended if you’re thinking about any tour in Tunisia.
Excellent private tour of Carthage

5.00We booked a private four hour tour of Carthage with Ahmed Riahi. He was an excellent and very friendly guide who was very knowledgeable not just about the sites we visited, but also the wider historical events and cultural influences that have shaped Carthage. He does not use a ‘pre-prepared script’ meaning he was able to respond to our questions and interests. The tour was excellent value for money. Thoroughly recommended.
Fantastic family trip in Tunisia

5.00We relied on Ahmed Riahi to organize our family trip to Tunisia for a group of 15 people, including adults and children, and the experience was excellent. Ahmed was always available, professional and flexible, managing the group with great care and accommodating all our requests. The desert experience around Tozeur was unforgettable, thanks also to Mehdi, a knowledgeable and kind guide who made everyone feel comfortable. Overall, the trip was very well organized and truly memorable. Highly recommended.

A fantastic cultural tour with Ahmed

5.00We booked Ahmed on tge recommendation of another guest at our hotel. We were definitely not disappointed! Ahmed arranged a comfortable air conditioned car and driver to meet us at our hotel in Hammamet. From that point, the whole day was a delight. Ahmed met us in Tunis and took us on a tour of the Medina, fish & vegetable market and the ancient trade areas telling us the history of how these areas were developed by various cultures over the centuries. We then had a really good lunch in the port district with fresh fish of all kinds to choose from. After lunch, we visited the palace at Sidi Bou Said with exquisite carvings and architecture. Last but not least, were the three roman archaeological sites at Carthage. Ahmed's command of English was superb and his knowledge of ancient history immense. What a day! He was the best and most interesting tour guide I've had. Dont miss this trip if you go to Tunisia and don't miss out on Ahmed guiding you. Thanks Ahmed.
