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.

Hidden treasures of the medina

5.00The guides were friendly and informative. I especially liked how they took us through unassuming doors in the medina to discover courtyards and ancient cafés. I also liked to hear the about historical details like the Jewish presence and the symbolism of door designs. I didn't take some of their shopping suggestions but explored later and bargained for things.
Months on top!

5.00What an incredible experience! As a solo traveler, I try to book tours like this when I first arrive to the destination so that I am shown around a bit. Aladdin went above and beyond. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the region, and I love how passionate he spoke. It is clear he loves Tunis and he is excited to show his beautiful culture to others. We walked through the main parts of the Medina, and he even showed us some awesome off-the-path places. I also got very lucky and had the coolest group! I met some amazing people who made the tour all the more fun and memorable. I loved how at the end, the guide announced he wanted us all to stay in touch and offered to help us all with anything we needed. I came for a tour, and left with friends. I highly recommend doing this!
Highly recommend

5.00Fantastic tour by Aladdino through the medina and some of the buildings just outside. Very informative about Tunisian culture, history, politics and religion, with his personal thoughts included if we asked! Tour included water, delicious Tunisian sweets and mint tea in an amazing cafe we would never have found on our own. Thoroughly recommended!
Medina Magic Tour!
