Tunisia Small Group Tours

Small Group Tours to Tunisia

Africa’s northernmost nation is a blend of Arab and Berber cultures, Mediterranean beaches and Sahara sands, a penchant for festivals, an emphasis on etiquette, a turbulent past, and terrific ancient sites; in brief, a paradox of colour and character.

Why Choose a Tour in Tunisia?

An intriguing mix of the exotic and the familiar, Tunisia stretches from the Sahara to the sea, its little landmass filled with haunting history, ancient archaeology, secluded shores and beguiling villages. Jules Verne’s escorted tours in Tunisia reveal all its aspects and assets, from French boulevards in Tunis, its cosmopolitan capital, to the nomad culture of Douz, the gateway to the desert.

Combining seven UNESCO sites with several less-visited semi-secrets, our guided Tunisia tours include the remains of ancient Carthage, and the Dougga ruins of a Roman settlement; Hammamet, where ‘no building is taller than a tree’, and the vineyards of Cap Bon.

We visit traditional, untouristy Tabarka, and the oasis town of Tozeur; Sousse, with its gloriously preserved medina; and picture-perfect Sidi Bou Said, its blue and white buildings hemming the sea; and see Matmata’s sub-terranean dwellings, and Bulla Regia’s ornate mosaics.

Coastal Kerkouane is the only surviving example of a Punic/Phoenician city; the jewel of El Djem is the world’s best-preserved amphitheatre; and in the 9th-century city of Kairouan, its enormous Great Mosque is a place of pilgrimage today.

When to go on Tunisia Holidays

To enjoy comfortably warm weather on our range of guided tours, we think the best times to visit Tunisia are between March and May or in September and October. At both these times of year, the temperatures will be cooler than in the high summer, but still warm and sunny, ideal for exploring the sites.

Who are Tunisia Tours Suited to?

Escorted tours in Tunisia are a fascinating mix of the multi-faceted country, encompassing modern beach resorts and mesmerising medieval medinas, rural villages, traditional towns, and desert oases, amazing UNESCO World Heritage sites, and inspiring Islamic architecture; so there really is something for everyone here.

Extension options in seafront Sousse are available too, so you can spend time at leisure for sunset strolls, shopping in the souks, and soaking up the culture of the city’s thousand-year history.
