Best Tours & activities in Tunis (2026)

A guide adds a great deal in Tunis, because so much of the medina's history is hidden behind plain doors and the Carthage site is spread across a large suburb. Dar El Jeld arranges, on request, a guided walk through the medina's monuments and souks with the historian Jamila Binous, a member of the Association de Sauvegarde de la Médina, and can organise visits to the Bardo, Carthage, Oudna and Sidi Bou Said.

Dar Ben Gacem, a social-enterprise guesthouse in the medina, plans experiences from an hour to several days, including medina walks, food shopping, cooking with its chef and calligraphy, and can help with transport for day trips further afield. On the coast, the Four Seasons Hotel Tunis offers four- or six-hour guided tours of the medina and Bardo or Carthage and Sidi Bou Said, plus boat trips and dives from Marina Gammarth. Prices and inclusions vary and are often not published, so confirm what is covered, especially transport and entry tickets, when you book. Morning starts are cooler in summer, and comfortable shoes and modest clothing are needed for the medina.
