Join me for an authentic walk through the historic Medina of Tunis, a UNESCO World Heritage site filled with winding alleys, vibrant souks, and centuries-old monuments. Together, we’ll explore hidden mosques, madrasas, shrines, and pass through lively markets full of colors, scents, and sounds.
We’ll also stop by colonial-era landmarks like the Cathedral of Saint Vincent de Paul and the bustling Marché Central, before taking a break at a traditional café tucked inside the Medina — a great moment to relax and experience local life.
Our journey ends in Kasbah Square, a site rich in history and a powerful symbol of modern Tunisia.

What To Expect
St. Vincent de Paul Cathedral
We’ll stop in front of the Cathedral of Saint Vincent de Paul — one of the last reminders of the French colonial era in downtown Tunis. With its mix of Moorish and Romanesque styles, this impressive church stands out in a mostly Muslim city. I’ll share with you its fascinating history, the symbolism behind its design, and how it fits into the story of modern Tunis.
Marche central de Tunis, Fondouk El Ghala
We’ll pass by the vibrant Marché Central — the main market of Tunis and a true feast for the senses. You’ll see colorful displays of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish, spices, and flowers, all in a lively atmosphere full of local energy. I’ll tell you how this market has been at the heart of daily life in Tunis for over a century, and we’ll talk about what Tunisians typically shop for, eat, and cook. It’s a great place to feel the real rhythm of the city.

5.00Beautiful tour of the city of Tunis with many historical stories. Aladin personally responds to our questions and takes care of us a lot. Communication in advance also went flawlessly. What we also liked very much was that Aladdin had invited us for a tea and a lemonade. Overall an excellent experience. We would book this tour again.
