Description:

Uncover several different sides of Tunisia by visiting 3 cities in a 1-day tour of the Gulf of Hammamet. See the holy city of Kairouan, known for Islamic pilgrimages. At Sousse, learn more about the region’s ancient history before traveling to the coast and the modern town of Monastir.

Begin inland at Kairouan, and admire the many mosques of the country’s most sacred city. At the Sidi Oqba Mosque—or Great Mosque—marvel at more than 400 columns cut from marble and granite. Listen to your guide as they explain the huge historical importance of this particular holy building.

Continue to vibrant Sousse, a town steeped in ancient history, as some sort of settlement has stood here since Phoenician times. Wander through its medina as you explore the narrow passageways of energetic markets and observe its impressive Roman architecture. Also observe the impressive ribat, central to the town’s protection throughout the centuries.

Complete your tour in Monastir, formerly an old fishing port city, and notice how the region’s economy has become driven by international tourism in this well-developed coastal resort.
