Itinerary

Let the Mediterranean’s lesser-known treasures surprise you on the "Discover Tunisia" art and architecture tour. Over six days, this relaxed-paced group trip transports experienced travelers through an enchanting blend of golden beaches, ancient oases, and storied cities.

Begin in Hammamet, a sun-drenched haven famed for its pristine coastline and vibrant water sports. Venture south to Tozeur, gateway to dramatic mountain oases and desert adventures. Douz, the "Gateway to the Sahara," invites you to wander its vast palm groves and experience the edge of the legendary desert.

Your journey continues to Sousse, where elegant boulevards and the upscale Port El Kantaoui offer the perfect blend of relaxation and culture. Wrap up in Tunisia’s laid-back capital, Tunis, home to exquisite Islamic architecture and neighboring the iconic ruins of Carthage.

What sets this trip apart is its rare access to both coastal relaxation and desert adventure, all wrapped in a rich tapestry of North African culture. With accommodations, transport, and meals included, this tour package is a seamless way to experience Tunisia’s diverse landscapes and history.

The site attracts thousands of local and international visitors for its magnificent architectural and spiritual value.
