Full Day private tour to Kairouan and Roman coliseum of El Jem

Even if you only have one day in Tunis, you would be surprised at how much you can get out of this day! With years of experience behind me as an official Tunisia tour guide, I have designed this tour to enable you to discover the top monuments of ancient city of Kairouan. I will show you around the city where I was born and grew up, the Great Mosque, the Medina with its ancient marketplace, the tomb of Sidi Sahab and the Aghlabid Basins. In El Jem, we will visit the most spectacular Roman amphitheatre in North Africa. I have studied art and history and booking my tour means that you have an expert at your side. On this tour you can extend or shorten the duration of one visit to do more exploring in another one as per your convenience. I know the best way to arrange the day and I'm highly flexible for accommodating all your needs.
