Tunisia Explored includes accommodation, an expert guide, meals, transport and more. Come and explore Tunisia – wedged into the top of North Africa. Marvel at the stunning Mediterranean coastline, hidden beaches and mouthwatering seafood. Dive head first into imperial Rome as you uncover some of the world’s best preserved Roman ruins. Mingle with fascinating cultures and experience a time frozen way of life as you spend time with locals who still live in caves dug deep into the ground.

Embrace age old traditions as they intertwine with the chic modern world.
