Overview
I have been a certified national guide since 2004 and I am an expert in providing and organizing activities that will involve you with local life. I will help you make the most of your time. My tours all over Tunisia will take you to explore the splendor of ancient civilizations and add something unforgettable to your trip.
The Medina of Tunis, heritage of UNESCO, offers visitors monuments and sights out of the ordinary.
The inscribed property covers an area of approximately 280 ha and comprises all the features of an Arabo-Muslim city. It is composed of the central medina (8th c) and suburbs to the North and South (13th c). There are some 700 historic monuments, distributed in 7 areas, among which the most remarkable are the Zitouna Mosque, the Kasbah Mosque, the Youssef Dey Mosque, Bab Jedid Gate, Bab Bhar Gate, the Souq el-Attarine, Souq ech-Chaouachia, the Tourbet el Bey, noble houses such as Dar Lasram, Dar El Medina, the Madrasa Es- Slimanya, the El Attarine military barracks and the Zaouia of Sidi Ben Arous.
With its suks, its urban fabric, its residential quarters, monuments and gates, this ensemble constitutes a prototype among the best conserved in the Islamic world.
