    Great and unique experience, more like visiting an aunt and uncle in their home when visiting Sousse than a traditional tour. Very knowledgeable and couldn't do enough to make you feel at home.

  • 5An amazing day!

    A lovely day. Great prior communication. Picked up on time at our hotel. Drove to the Sousse Medina, great conversation along the way. Walked around the medina, key spots pointed out. Then got into detail on today’s menu and what to buy. Nicknacks were purchased along the way to the food market and then it got serious. Menu totally changed from initial focus as we found some excellent fresh fish. All were happy at this 180 as eat what is good, local and in season. Back in the car. Olives, bread and pasta picked up and then to the house. Stunning new house and garden. Met his wife, some snacks and libation and on with the chef aprons and hats and a cooking’ we went. 3 hours of prepping and mixing and cooking and voila a 4 course meal of the most exotic and exciting dishes were produced. Firstly, amazing, secondly, great value, but more importantly, I think friends for life. A lovely couple who we would love in our house. Me Casa Es Tu Casa. Thank you so much for a perfect and memorable birthday event for my wife.

    It was a really nice half a day, going through the markets, cooking and eating. A nice experience to visit Tunisia in a different way.

    Myself and my husband Adam had a lovely experience with Nabil and his wife Nefisah. Nabil picked us up from our hotel which was really appreciated instead of trying to locate him somewhere unfamiliar to us. We went around the local market to gather some ingredients. It was very enjoyable going with a local who knew the area. We enjoyed a welcome breakfast when we arrived to their home (note to self, don't eat so much breakfast next time) We were made to feel very welcome including from their cat Luna and their daughter. We made couscous, chicken, vegetables, Brik (so good!) and some dessert. It was a really lovely hands on experience, the best way to learn about local culture and traditions. You don't need language when cooking is involved, it just some how brings everyone together. We enjoyed our tea and desserts outside in the sunshine before Nabil dropped us home around 2pm. Their home was beautiful. I'd recommend anyone to do this experience to get a real life experience, meet with locals and learn the Tunisian way of life.

About Sousse

Sousse is a Tunisian port and beach resort on the Gulf of Hammamet, with a walled medina and ribat on the water and Roman mosaics in its museum.

Sousse's medina, a World Heritage Site, is a walled maze of lanes, shops and old houses rising from the harbour. The ribat, a fortress-monastery of the eighth century, has a watchtower with views over the roofs and the sea, and the Great Mosque, dating from the ninth century, is a plain stone building around a courtyard. Phoenicians founded a port called Hadrumetum here, which later flourished under Rome.
