Itinerary

Day 1

Pickup in Tunis in the morning. The day combines museum time, a visit to the Carthage archaeological area, and a relaxed walk through Sidi Bou Said, with short transfers between each stop. Return to Tunis late afternoon.

Bardo National Museum (Le Bardo)

08:30 – 10:00 • 1h 30m

Visit the Bardo National Museum to see its renowned collection of Roman mosaics and other archaeological collections housed in a 19th‑century palace. The guide highlights major mosaics and provides accessible seating breaks during the visit.

Le Bardo, Tunis, Tunisia

Tips from local experts:

  • Bring a light jacket; interior galleries are air‑conditioned and can be cool for extended periods.
  • There are benches in major galleries — plan short resting stops every 20–30 minutes if needed.
  • Carry a small amount of local currency for lockers or museum card payments; guide will assist with directions to the entrance.

Carthage Archaeological Site

10:45 – 13:00 • 2h 15m

Explore the main archaeological area of Carthage. The visit covers visible ruins and viewpoints that illustrate Punic and Roman occupation; the guide will lead a route that minimizes steep climbs and uses flatter paths where possible.

Carthage, Tunisia

Tips from local experts:

  • Wear comfortable, supportive shoes — paths are uneven and include gravel and stone.
  • Expect open, sunny areas; bring sun protection (hat, sunscreen) and use provided bottled water during walking segments.
  • Ask the guide for quieter viewpoints if you prefer to avoid crowded photo spots or steep staircases.

Sidi Bou Said (village and viewpoint)

13:30 – 15:30 • 2h

Leisurely visit to the picturesque hilltop village of Sidi Bou Said: wander the winding lanes, enjoy coastal views and visit key viewpoints. The guide schedules a relaxed walking loop with time to sit and rest; food and drinks are not included but there are cafés available if guests wish to purchase refreshments independently.

Sidi Bou Said, Tunisia

Tips from local experts:

  • Many streets have steps; choose shaded seating areas for longer rest periods and notify the guide if you need the flattest route.
  • Carry small change for restroom facilities or a café if you wish to sit for a drink; the guide can recommend quieter cafés with accessible seating.
  • Plan photo stops near the main viewpoints early in the visit to avoid mid‑day crowds and reduce walking in the hottest part of the day.
