  To: TripAdvisor 342.52$/2 Numéro de réservation BR-1322596063 ven. 10 oct. 2025 SAHARANSKY Tunis : Carthage, Musée du Bardo, Sidi Bou Said & Medina Group Tour TO:viator ref 1316207251 TO: caravan du sahara The worst excursion in my life. Bad experience no 1 On the departure day we were supposed to be picked up at 8h00 AM. On our way to the cafeteria for breakfast at 7h00 AM I get a call that the driver is waiting to pick us up. I told him it’s supposed to be at 8h00. A French speaking guide calls me to say that the pickup time is 7h00. So we get to the car. We are about to leave when the same guide calls to tell us that we can go to our breakfast and that we will be picked up at 8h00. In the meantime I check my emails. AT 6h39 PM, 12 hours before leaving I received an email changing the departure time to 7h00 AM. REALLY .But I saw that email only after the driver the call at 7.00 AM This is organised disorganisation. Bad experience no 2 The driver then dropped us at the Bardo Museum. Surprise, no guide no bus. Luckily the driver is still around. The driver put me in contact with the French speaking guide who tells me she will be a little late. We have waited 1 ½ hours sitting on a cold uncomfortable marble bench. If we would have left at 7.00 AM we would have waited 2 1/2 hours. The guide finally arrive, doesn’t speak French at all. We are supposed to be in a French speaking group. She tells me that she was called at the last minute to replace the original guide. My spouse did not enjoy the visit because she did not understand English at all. Bad experience n0 3 We got back at the hotel later than expected and missed our diner. Comment: Is it possible to do worst than that. On a positive note The Guide was 100% ok despite she didn’t speak French and took good care of my spouse and me. We both use a walking cane. Shouldn’t I get some kind o compensation?

• Not a waste of time but not great

  I'm glad I booked a tour with driver - we were able to see the highlights I had hoped for. They even dropped me off at the North Africa American Cemetery so I could pay a visit. The lunch that was included was great - in the Medina and a great selection of traditional foods. It was all quite informal - there were three of us in the group plus guide and driver. They were 30 minutes late picking me up, so I was on the phone with Viator when they arrived. The guide was nice enough but just OK at his job. Unfortunately, he seemed unenthused, he spoke quietly and struggled a bit with English. We were in a small car that miraculously seats seven, so two people were in the middle seat and I was in the back "jump seat". I couldn't hear the guide at all when he was speaking, but the men in the middle shared a bit with me. During our walks you had to be right next to him to hear. Despite the tour description that said they will not encourage any particular items or vendors for purchase, we stopped at one particular hat maker in the medina and mosaic vendor in Sidi Bou Said...where we bought items. ; ) Well played. Previous reviews were good, so it just depends on the guide and experience. I would choose a different tour/vendor next time, but you just never know.

  We booked a private tour with a driver and guide for four people. After being picked up by the driver we were told that we didn’t have a guide. Although we immediately questioned this he continued driving. We asked to speak to the company and he refused. After some persistence he rang the company (we assume) and we asked if they could accommodate us the following day. We were told no, and that a refund would not be offered to us. We insisted on being taken back to the hotel. After some persistence we got a refund. We explained to our hotel what happened and they organised the same tour at a lower cost. Possibly we should have booked via the hotel in first instance. I appreciate this was our experience and others have enjoyed much better service.

• Great itinerary and well organised

  If I could give more stars I would. I’m currently on the bus back to my drop off point. Huda was absolutely amazing. Her knowledge is very impressive. Her character is amazing and warming. Absolute gem to be around. Huda went above and beyond on our trip which I true appreciate. I didn’t pay extra for the lunch as part of the trip. At the restaurant, I had spaghetti Bolognese and a bottle of coke which was 42 TND which is about £10,50 It is excellent value for money. My hotel is in Hamammet. I had a driver from Hamammet to Tunis and back. We over ran on the tour and my driver back was calling for me. Which had us in giggles as I was being called “her highness” You will not be disappointed truly beautiful and filled with a wealth of knowledge. Thank you

  The tour was a great, hassle-free, way to see the best of Tunis and the surrounding area. There was a good variety of activities, from exploring the old Medina, seeing the highlights at the Bardo museum, taking in the views at Sidi Bou Said, and visiting the ruins of Carthage. As always, there are some stops at craft stores, though the salespeople were respectful and you did not feel pressured to buy things. Special mention goes to our guide, Bouhdid, whose enthusiasm (and occasional singing!) kept us entertained on what was quite a long and packed day. His pride in Tunisia and its rich history made the day even more enjoyable.

  I mostly enjoyed the outing. The guide was excellent and everything went smoothly. I do have reservations about the time spent looking at carpets and perfume oils - this was presented as an introduction to local culture, but in all honesty it was a shopping expedition. I did not sign up to go shopping, however lucrative this may be for the tour organizers.

• Highly recommend!

  Bouhdid was our guide and cultural interpreter. His knowledge of Tunisian history, architecture, and culture kept us fully occupied as the time flew by. His sense of humor and personable demeanor made him the perfect host. He clearly loves Tunisia and enjoys sharing the rich heritage of his home country.
