The best of Tunisia with the best guide

Mar 2025 • Friends

I went on a ladies trip with 4 friends and Tarek was our guide. He did a wonderful job and his English was great. He is very knowledgeable about history and culture and is always working to increase his already great knowledge. He helped us navigate the country without a problem, showed us all the cool and interesting sites. Tunisia has a lot to offer and you will only learn and see it if you go with such a great guide as Tarek.

Tarek was a great guide throughout the seven days of the tour, speaks Italian and makes everything easier for us curious Italians. Prepared, helpful and sympathetic. There were no problems, maybe he was good at not letting us have it. A country with a thousand facets, from the sea to the desert, from ancient history, which is still found in unexpected places, fascinating scents and flavors, good food and great...
