Tunis, Tunisia, (From La Goulette)
Spice-scented souks, spectacular ruins, scenic hill villages, superb sandy beaches… La Goulette is a gateway to Tunisia and an eye-popping array of attractions.
Welcome to North Africa – where Arab and Mediterranean cultures collide. Visit the capital Tunis with its medieval medina or bargain hunt in the treasure-filled souk. Take a trip to nearby Carthage, full of ancient Roman ruins, then head to idyllic Sidi Bou Said overlooking the sea. Marvel at the magnificent mosaics in the Bardo Museum or cool off with watersports down on the beach. Want more action? Then jump on a quad bike and go for a blast in the dunes.
